Florida State Seminoles vs Louisville Cardinals prediction
The Louisville Cardinals continue to make a case as the worst team in the ACC, and a 10-11 ATS record doesn’t make them any more attractive to bettors. The Florida State Seminoles have improved over the last three weeks or so, and they’re 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games. Florida State has also shown it can win on the road, as it recently beat Notre Dame, Miami, and Syracuse on the road over the last month. Of course, I wouldn’t expect a packed house at the KFC Yum! Center given the play this season. All that to say, give me FSU and the chalk.
