Game-time decision: Louisville QB Miller Moss expected to miss SMU game with foot injury

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Louisville starting quarterback Miller Moss, who has started every game for the Cardinals this season, is expected to miss Saturday's game with an injury.

Moss had been listed as "questionable" for the game in the ACC's new injury reporting system. This morning, on ESPN's College GameDay, Pete Thamel reported that Moss will be out with a foot injury.

Moss will dress for the game and warm up. He's officially listed as a game-time decision in the game-day ACC injury report.

The senior transfer from USC has thrown all but 17 of the Cardinals' passes this season. He has completed 216 of 336 passes for 2,344 yards, with 11 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He has struggled in November, throwing for 183.7 yards per game and completing 55 percent of his passes with one touchdown and two interceptions.

Louisville coach Jeff Brohm is expected to turn to Deuce Adams, a 6-2 redshirt freshman from Austin Texas. Adams is a dual-threat QB, which would give the Cardinals an added running dimension in the backfield. He was a consensus three-star prospect out of high school.

Brohm also has prepared to go with Brady Allen, a 6-6 redshirt junior from Fort Branch, Indiana. Allen transferred from Purdue when Brohm came to Louisville and has more time in Brohm's system than any QB on the roster. He was a consensus four-star quarterback out of Gibson Southern High School, and has seen action in four games over his three seasons in Louisville.

Regardless of who starts, Louisville's offense is facing stress from injury. Its top two running backs, Isaac Brown and Keyjuan Brown, both are out for this game.

Defensively, Antonio Watts is listed as out for a unit that will need to carry the Cardinals against an SMU team coming off its two best offensive performances of the season.

The Mustangs are coming off a bye week. Louisville will be looking to avoid a three-game losing skid.

Kickoff is at noon on ESPN2.
