Misery Index · Uneasy · ▼ from 86
A 24-point win over Florida State, and the room still braced for a three-point loss that never came.
The emotional rollercoaster
Louisville fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Louisville beat Florida State 44-20 on Thursday night, a result that should have ended arguments and instead started new ones. The turning point came the moment the margin got comfortable, because that's when the fanbase stopped watching the game and started watching for the collapse. "We are going to lose by 3 points," one posted, with the scoreboard already settled. Misery dropped from 86 to 64, which counts as joy here. At 3-3, nobody is celebrating a win they spent four quarters refusing to believe in.

“That was a completely stupid plan from Norvell. We haven’t stopped your run game so on fourth and goal you do a screen?”
