How it could help Louisville: Everyone was so worried and worked up last weekend when all these teams that Louisville needed to win, actually lost. However, there was one team that helped the Cardinals out big time and that was Florida State. Narrowly beating Miami was probably the best thing that has happened to the Seminoles this season. If they would have lost, they may have been kicked out of the top 25. Now that they won, Florida State has an opportunity to keep winning and moving up in the polls.

This would do nothing but give the Louisville football team another credible win this season. You never really know what the committee will be looking at, but I can garuntee you that a highly ranked Florida State squad will be a bonus for Louisville at the end of the season.
