‘Extremely Poor Performance,’ ‘We Beat Ourselves Tonight’ — Mike Norvell, Ashton Daniels Own Florida State’s Collapse After Blowing Lead vs Louisville

Florida State suffered a crushing 44-20 defeat against Louisville after surrendering 35 unanswered points. Despite an early 14-0 lead, the Seminoles faltered following a failed fourth-down conversion attempt near the goal line, which preceded a 97-yard touchdown run by Isaac Brown.

Head coach Mike Norvell defended the aggressive play-calling, though the team struggled to contain a Louisville rushing attack that totaled 397 yards. Quarterback Ashton Daniels threw for 209 yards and two touchdowns in the loss, while Brown paced the Cardinals with 235 rushing yards and two scores.

Defensive lineman Rylan Kennedy noted that the momentum shifted entirely after the long touchdown run, leaving the Seminoles unable to regain control of the contest.
