Louisville's PFF Grades from Game 10 vs. Clemson

In this story:
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - The Louisville football program has endured one of their most frustrating games in recent memory.
The Cardinals had plenty of opportunities to take down Clemson this past Friday night, but repeatedly could get out of their own way, eventually falling 20-19 to the Tigers. They have now lost back-to-back games, falling to 7-3 overall in the process.
With a performance such as this, how did Louisville's players grade out over on the analytical site Pro Football Focus? Below are the team-wide grades, as well as all the individual offensive and defensive grades, from their matchup against Boston College:
As a reminder, in PFF's grading scale, 60.0 is the baseline for an "average" grade. 70.0-79.9 is considered above average, 80.0-89.9 is good, whereas 90.0 and higher is elite. On the opposite end of the spectrum, 59.9-50.0 is below average, 49.9-40.0 is considered poor, whereas 39.9 and below is very poor.
