Louisville vs Florida State Key Stats
The Cardinals have dropped their first eight games for the first time since dropping their first 11 games of the 1940–41 season. Additionally, the Cardinals are off to the worst start in ACC history. They are in their first year under the leadership of head coach Kenny Payne, who hasn't been able to pull much out of his club offensively.
In one of the games this season, the Cardinals have been held to under 70 points, and four of their previous five games have seen them score less than 55 points. Against Arkansas, Texas Tech, Cincinnati, Maryland, and Miami, they suffered back-to-back dreadful defeats.
The Seminoles have also had a terrible start to this season and don't resemble the top Seminole teams of the past. They have only won one game so far this season, a victory against Mercer near the end of November, and they have dropped their last five contests.
Their last close call came in a 62–57 defeat at No. 3 Virginia last Saturday. They have dropped four of the five games by double digits. The Seminoles' effective field goal percentage, which is 45.5%, puts them in 314th place, while their two-point shooting percentage is merely 44.5%.
Louisville vs Florida State Betting Prediction
Even though it's likely one of the most boring games of the college basketball season, one team must ultimately prevail. The Cardinals haven't managed to cover the spread in each of their eight games, proving that they are still overvalued despite their eight-game losing streak.
The Seminoles have covered the spread at least a few times. They should win this game since they have more talent, size, and experience on their roster than their opponents.
Pick: Florida State Seminoles -9.5 (-110)
