"4. Louisville: Hard to fathom the Cardinals leading Florida State by 53 and winning by 43. I hope I’m not ranking the ‘Ville too low. Sometimes, there’s a phenomenon of awe that paralyzes us. Baseball writer Bill James tells the story of Dick Stuart hitting 66 home runs in a minor-league season for Lincoln, Neb., and that figure being so outrageous, that baseball front offices couldn’t process the information. Hit 30, 35, even 40 home runs, and you were labeled a can’t-miss prospect. But hit 66, and it’s like aliens descended or something. Stuart didn’t make the major leagues for a couple more years after his 66. Maybe that’s how I’m reacting to Louisville’s 63-20 rout of the Seminoles. Maybe it’s just too awesome to comprehend."
