Florida State Seminoles Come From Behind To Beat Louisville Cardinals 42-31

With #2 ranked Florida State starting the game as the favorite to win their
match-up against the Louisville Cardinals in Kentucky (away game), you would have never thought that they would've been losing 21-7 at halftime which is exactly what happened. Turnovers really hurt the Seminoles in the second quarter when Jameis Winston threw 2 interceptions within 3 minutes of each other and the Cardinals were able to capitalize on them. Winston lost his first interception to linebacker James Burgess, and the second one to safety Gerod Holliman. Despite the turnovers though Winston had a good game if you look at the stats. He went 25 for 48 in pass completions with a total of 401 yards, 3 TD's, and 3 Interceptions.

Florida State was able to run the ball as well with Dalvin Cook rushing 9 times for a total of 110 yards and 2 TD's, while FSU's other contributing running back Karlos Williams finished the game with 16 carries for 72 yards. 

Jameis Winston did a good job spreading the football around too. He connected with 8 different receivers for those 401 yards that I mentioned earlier, along with 3 TD's. The two receivers that had the most receiving yards were Travis Rudolph and Nick O'leary who both had 76 yards each.

I'm not sure what coach Fisher said to the team during the halftime break but Florida State kicked it into high gear for the 2nd half of the game. The Seminoles came out and scored 14 points in the 3rd quarter, and then turned around and scored 21 points in the 4th quarter.

I must say though, this Florida State team is proving to be relentless when it comes to overcoming tough situations. Just when you think they're going to lose the game they just keep fighting and some how they manage to win the game. With only four games left in the season we'll see if the Florida State Seminoles can keep their undefeated record and play for the BCS championship once again.
