Louisville Crushes Syracuse, Road Woes Continue

0:00On March 3rd, tonight, the Syracuse Orange with a 15 and 14 record overall and 6 and 10 in the ACC hit the road to face the number. 24 Louisville Cardinals, who stand at 29 overall and 9 and 7 in conference play, tip off a set for 9 pm, eastern on the ACC network. Louisville has underperformed expectations this season, but remains of powerhouse at home, boasting a 14 and 2 record there. Meanwhile, Syracuse has struggled away from their dome, going just 3 and 9 on the road. Our panel agrees the Cardinals high-powered offense should overwhelm Syracuse's leaky defense. They all predict comfortable wins for Louisville, with scores ranging from 12 to 20 point margins. Syracuse hasn't grabbed a road ACC victory in nearly two months, dating back to early January against Pittsburgh. Even without one key guard, Louisville's perimeter shooters in recent hot hands from players like Ryan Conwell and Javan Hadley give them the edge.

1:01As the clock winds down to tip off, Louisville looks poised to build momentum heading into the conference finale, leaving Syracuse fighting to salvage.
