Three FSU players Louisville football should key on.

It’s been a rough start for Louisville football in a 2020 season where the Cardinals faced high expectations, and things could only get tougher when they host Florida State on Saturday.

The Seminoles had a similarly rough start to the season but sprung an important upset over a top-five North Carolina team last weekend.

One key to Florida State springing a massive upset was their excellent talent across the board. New head coach Mike Norvell was handed the keys to a Ferarri with off-brand tires. Now that he is starting to gain some tread on the tires and has had some time to recalibrate after a few unsuccessful test drives, he was able to let loose and open it up against a quality UNC team.

The result was a massive momentum-shifting victory that should carry over on FSU’s trip to Louisville.

There were some big names involved in the Florida State victory and some lesser-known players who could make a big impact when the Seminoles hit the road this weekend.

Let’s take a look at the three most important players to keep an eye on for Florida State.
