The Louisville Cardinals just like the NC State Wolfpack, Clemson Tigers, and Fighting Irish of Notre Dame had the Florida State Seminoles right where they wanted them. They also have one thing in common and that is losing to the 'Noles as Florida State dodges another "L" near Churchill Downs!

The 'Noles down 21-0 at one point scored right before the half and went into the break down 21-7 and that was huge for the FSU. It was Louisville's fabulous duo of RB Michael Dyer (28 att 134 yards 3 TD) and WR Devonte Parker (8 pigs 214 yds) doing most of the damage for the Cards as well as Safety Gerod Holliman with two INT as he almost on two other occasions had two more.

It was 'Noles QB Jameis Winston turning a bad performance into a solid one minus his three INT's. Winston threw for 401 yards on 25 for 48 and three TD's. The 'Noles erupted for for 35 points in the 2nd half as the 'Vill had no answer for them on "D".

It was 'Noles true freshman RB Dalvin Cook who ran for 110 yards on just nine carries and caught four pigs for 40 yards as he had two long rushing TD's that broke Louisville's back. FSU's two top offensive weapons TE Nick O'Leary and WR Rashad Greene combined for a dozen grabs for 128 yards but none for pay dirt.

The 'Noles "D" finally settled down and to their credit held the Cards to 1 for 11 on 3rd down. FSU was 9 for 16 on 3rd down and that told the story in the 2nd as Louisville could not get off the field on 3rd down.

The 'Noles move to 8-0 and 5-0 in the ACC. The Cards fall to 6-3 and 4-3 in the ACC...
