Louisville and Tennessee

Damn sloppy game

 

Louisville has looked red hot this whole tournament. No one is talking about them and they are beating people down like UNC. They look real good. UCLA not so much (up 61-55 on WKU)

 

Louisville looks good, and is certainly capable of beating Carolina. This deep in the tourney every game is tough, but Louisville dosen't look to me like the juggernaught all the ABCers here are making them out to be.

 

They just beat Oklahoma by 30 and just beat a damn good Tennessee team by 20. They are playing better than anyone in the tournament right now including Carolina. It won't matter cause Carolina will win but Louisville looks really good.

 

I never said Louisville was bad, but I also don't believe that they are going to destroy Carolina. As someone said in another thread earlier.

Tennessee was sloppy, and didn't play any defense. Carolina could have just as easily beat them by 20 tonight. As bad as UNC's defense is supposed to be, it is still better than Tennessee's.

One thing is for sure Louisville will want to run, I like UNCs chances against anyone in an uptempo game.

 

Louisville may give the Heels a game - but damn if UNC wouldn't beat the brakes off that undisciplined bunch of chucking street ballers from Knoxville. That game would have been too easy.

 

I wouldn't say playing better than UNC to this point, close maybe, but definately not better.

But they are a team that is very capable of beating UNC and a team that UNC needs to come out ready to play against. They also have one of the best game coaches going for them.

 

Louisville will give the better game to UNC than the Vols. Had the Vols beaten Louisville the scoreboard would have broken against the Heels what with all the runnig between both teams. Louisville had better take care of the basketball better against the Heels. Should be fun to watch that big guy Louisville has verses Tyler. Two BIG bodies banging. I hope Danny Green keeps up his current play

 

Louisville started that game with a LOT of turnovers - if Carolina can get them to cough the ball up a lot to begin with, it could get out of hand early. But I'm sure Pitino will do something to prevent that from happening again.
