Earliest Cash - Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach CFB Rotation #314 Saturday 8* Louisville Cardinals (-) vs Florida State Seminoles @ Noon ET - This line opened up around a 7 even though the Cardinals have lost 4 straight games. Why? Well, Florida State is off an upset win over North Carolina while Louisville has lost 4 straight games. But here are the keys. The Cards have played the tougher schedule and they also have revenge here against the Noles. The markets have moved this line lower (as I expected) and that is why there is great value with the home team in this one. The Cardinals lost to Notre Dame by just 5, the Seminoles lost to the Fighting Irish by 16. The Cards lost to to Miami by just 13 while the Noles lost to the Hurricanes by 42. Louisville is allowing about 100 yards less per game than Florida State and the better defense and home field and revenge factors all add up to a big home win here. Plus FSU QB Jordan Travis was with the Cardinals previously so they know plenty about him and his tendencies. 8* LOUISVILLE
