Title: Louisville/Gtown
Post by: HoopsMalone on February 23, 2010, 08:51:18 PM: I am conflicted on how I feel about Louisville losing at home to Georgetown.

On the one had, Gtown is probably our best win so it will be nice to have a win against a team with as good of an RPI as possible.

But, this year's Louisville team is not what it has been, and they always play well at the end of the year. So, I was kind of hoping that they won tonight because it is not likely that they will lose many down the stretch. I would have much rather this loss come in Milwaukee. A hot Louisville who would have beaten Syracuse and Gtown is also a better looking win (or explainable loss) at the BC.

And, quite frankly, they are not that good. Take away the cuse win and they only have one other top 50 win. They are a streak shooting team that can't score very well in the halfcourt. Contain samuels, limit your turnovers and there's not much they can do to win. We will beat them.

This loss was awesome. It sets up a do or die game on saturday for louisville and Uconn. Louisville virtually could lose all their remaining games. They dont have an easy road. MU still has to take care of buisness themselves though.

+1

The more Louisville, Cinci, and ND lose the happier I am, no matter the conference standings implications.
