Highlights:
It is hard to put into words just how special this run has been for Louisville basketball over the past month. Pat Kelsey has this team at 2nd in the ACC with wins over every major program outside of Duke. This was the last guaranteed quadrant-1 opportunity left on the schedule at the Cards left no doubt, never trailing in the game.
You don’t want to get your hopes up, but there is so much to be excited about when it comes to this Louisville team. They have a much needed week off ahead, from there they have a real opportunity to extend the winning streak as we move into the home stretch of this season.
