#3 Louisville @ Florida St - 2/21/21

[LETTERL]

Final: FSU upends #3 Louisville, 68-59. Did FSU seal an NCAAT bid today?

Louisville still takes the regular season ACC title. NC State won't play enough games to be able to catch them...since winning percentage takes precedence over head to head...and not all teams are playing the same number of games.

Final 68 - 59

Crap happens. An unranked Florida State (7-5) knocks off #3 Louisville (20-1). It happened today, it can happen in the tournament too. Look no further than your next game.

Louie shot 35% and only made three 3's.

That was unexpected

Louisville should be off the 1 line now. No big time wins and a bad loss today. They've been overdue for a loss like this with several close calls.

Florida played well to hold Louisville down. Anything can happen these days with top teams going down to unranked teams!

I’m sure Mulkey would agree.

Guess that puts NC State back on track for a 1-seed though Baylor has a bit of a case too.

A&M and SC might be lined up as the last 2 number one seeds until they meet.

Baylor I think is #6 after A&M/SC/NC State, Maryland/Louisville are #7/8.

Yeah I guess. They've done just enough though if you pick apart their schedule it's kinda blah. Neither the Texas or MSU wins look as good as they did at the time anyway.

Dana Evans shot 5-21 and was 1-9 on three point shooting for 13 points. She was Louisville's leading scorer with 13 points. Surprising loss for Louisville.

If Evans has a bad game, and nobody else steps up for her, that’s bad news for Louisville.

That’s why she’s a spotlight player. She’s needed to be that for Louisville.

Teams that rely too much on one player are never a good bet in single elimination tourn. One bad game against other good teams and you are out.
