Louisville quarterback Justin Burke will be a gametime decision for tonight's matchup with Pitt, C.L. Brown is reporting in his blog in The Courier-Journal.

Burke suffered an unspecified injury at Utah and missed Monday's practice, Brown reports. If Burke can't go, Steve Kragthorpe would turn to junior college transfer Adam Froman. That would make Louisville's assignment trickier, since Froman has never taken a snap at quarterback in a major-college game. He brings more mobility than Burke, and quarterback runs bothered Pitt last week at NC State. But Froman is no Russell Wilson, at least not yet.
