Each different college football bowl game comes with its own perks.

After defeating Toledo 27-22 in the Boca Raton Bowl at FAU Stadium on Tuesday, Louisville got to enjoy a massive bowl of baked beans on the field.

Actor and comedian Keegan-Michael Key was on the field stirring the bowl and getting it ready for the Louisville players. Louisville defensive lineman Clev Lubin went over and asked if the baked beans were theirs, and after receiving confirmation, ducked inside.

Lubin took out his mouthpiece and began to enjoy the food on the field. Eventually, his teammates did as well, while head coach Jeff Brohm was interviewed.

Louisville had good reason to celebrate as they fended off a Toledo comeback to hold on for the victory. The Cardinals led 14-3 entering the fourth quarter, but the action was far from over.

It looked like Louisville would prevail when they opened the fourth quarter with another touchdown to go up 21-3, but Toledo rallied. Toledo scored a touchdown on the next drive, forced a punt and then scored a field goal to cut it to 21-14.

Louisville responded. Running back Isaac Brown scored a 53-yard touchdown to make it 27-14, but Toledo blocked the extra point and returned it for two points, cutting it to 27-16. Toledo then scored another touchdown to cut it to 27-22 after they failed to convert on the two-point conversion.

Toledo’s final touchdown came with about two and a half minutes left in the game, and Louisville slammed the door on the fourth quarter comeback as they ran out the clock to win the game.

“Proud of our team,” Brohm said. “We finished strong. We didn’t play perfect, but we played hard, we played hard, we played until the end.”
