I know this game isn't over yet but....

[Cue Card]

FSU looks solid. Obviously under ranked, and since I went there, it's also pretty obvious the Cards are still over ranked. We have a top 10 to 15 team today, and I would say FSU is easily a top 10 ball club.

The one thing I enjoy about this team the Cards have is they just keep playing regardless of the score. I love the effort. They play hard.

They have size and experience. Their guards are very good, and getting whatever they want. I guess they play a lot of Soph. But their go to guys are JR/SR I think.

I've been impressed with FSU all day. They turn the ball over a little too much but they shot lights out today and frankly kicked our collective butts.

It happens, but this loss hurts me way more than the previous game. This one was a conference home game loss. Not happy.

Agreed. FSU is obviously a really talented and athletic team. But they have had plenty of these type teams under Hamilton and have never really done anything in the tourney; 1 Elite Eight under Hamilton.

FSU has the horses to win a bunch of games. I know this isn't the same team, but last year they were one of the very few teams to beat Virginia and that was in the ACCT.

College basketball is all about the guards and Louisville doesn’t have any. If I am Mack I take my lumps with Johnson, Williamson, and Nickleberry.

The last 2 games have clearly shown opposing guards are hyper aggressive and confident against Louisville’s back court. Both games the guards just bodied them up and shot right over the top.

It is what it is.

Kimble is the most experienced but doesn't appear to have top tier talent. Ryan is a scrappy player but isn't top tier talent. Johnson has potential to be a top tier talent but needs experience. Williamson has really fell off the cliff compared to the start of the season. Not sure what's happened to him. Perry will need to up his game or we're toast against teams with athletic guards.

Ham has done as well as anyone could at a school that has historically provided paltry support for our hoops program. Making the Tourney 7 out of the last 10 years with 2 Sweet 16s and an Elite 8 in the last three years is a big achievement at FSU. Good luck the rest of the year.
