Florida State (12-8, 6-3 ACC) travels to Louisville (6-15, 1-9 ACC) for a game Saturday at 8 p.m. The game will be broadcast on the ACC Network with Mike Monaco doing the play by play and Randolph Childress as analyst.

The Seminoles are seeking a fourth straight ACC road win following a bye week. They defeated Notre Dame, Miami and Syracuse in January.

Louisville has lost six straight games following an upset at Miami on Jan. 10. The Cardinals have struggled and is 192 in KenPom, the worst of the ACC schools. FSU is near the top of the ACC standings but is toward the bottom of the ACC teams in KenPom’s rankings at 73rd.

FSU has won seven of its last eight games against Louisville.

Josh Nickelberry played at Louisville from 2019-21 before transferring to LaSalle, where he was the Atlantic 10 sixth man of the year and graduated in May. Nickelberry has come off the bench at FSU and averaged 3 points and 1.2 rebounds in 20 games.

The Seminoles average 9.3 steals per game, just .1 off the school record from 2002-03. Jamir Watkins is three steals away from 100 for his career (he has 31 at FSU).

FSU will have 10 regular-season games left following Saturday, including two against BC (rated No. 87 by KenPom). FSU will play at BC on Tuesday followed by Virginia on Saturday.
