Louisville Basketball Faces Syracuse in Must-Win Home Game

0:00On March 2nd, Louisville's men's basketball team is hitting a rough patch, just as March madness heats up. With Selection Sunday less than two weeks away, the Cardinals have lost three of their last four games, including back-to-back road defeats last week. They fell 77-74 at North Carolina on Monday, then dropped in 80-75 decision at Clemson. That puts Louisville at 0-8 against top-tier Quad-1A opponents, though their 20-1 against everyone else this season. Each pack Kelsey says it's about sharpening their execution on offense from set plays to transition flow. No major errors, just needing to nail the basics they do best. Now they get a shot to bounce back Tuesday at the KFC Yum Center in their final home game against Syracuse. The orange are struggling too, with nine losses in their last 12 and just one win in 10 Quad-1 matchups. Kelsey knows Syracuse packs punch with athletic defenders and a top shot blocker, so Louisville must bring their A-game to wrap up the home slate.
