TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- If Louisville finds itself up double digits on Saturday, temper those celebrations Cardinals fans. High-fives deteriorate into high anxiety quickly against Florida State.
That double-digit lead would be about as safe as the last slice of Papa John's pizza at a campus dorm, because Jimbo Fisher is 10-9 in games he's trailed by 10 points or more.
It's not as if the No. 2 Seminoles would have the 10th-ranked Cardinals right where they want them at Papa John’s Cardinals Stadium if they fell behind by 10-plus points again. Florida State is sure it doesn't want to research that comeback model's sustainability.
