Louisville game thread

Let’s go Pitt!

Can we please not go down big early for once?

OSU
Miss St
VT
Cal
Stan
Duke

I dont understand this trend.

Spread down to 3.5. Vegas thinks these 2 teams are even with Pitt getting the home bump. Very surprising.

Offense looks good so far, though turnovers are hurting us. And giving up too many second chances already.
 
Not sure what's up with Ish. We are lazy. We don't defend and we certainly don't rebound. This effort is a disgrace on your home floor. They get every rebound or loose ball. It's embarrassing.

after an 18-5 run, Louisville goes on a 14-0 run
Louisville 7 offensive boards on 14 misse
 
I don't find this team particularly enjoyable to even pull for. They just get so bullied and are so frustratingly soft. The inability to get a defensive rebound (again) makes this season feel like a waste of time. It's like a football team that can't block. Nobody boxes out and we jog around and avoid contact.
 
There is just no purpose to our offense. Put it in the guards' hands and try to make things happen one-on-one. We were getting open looks earlier and they adjusted, now we're getting nothing.

PS: I love seeing coaches coach. L'ville with 2 good looks on in-bounds under our basket. Easy lob for 2. We don't run any plays like that.
 
This game is in danger of slipping away right now. Pitt has to elevate their energy
 
9 offensive boards for Cards on 18 misses leading to 13 second chance points
7-0 Cards points off turnovers
Pitt getting killed again on these 2 categories
 
Austin has 2 blocks and both times UL got the ball back

Charge on Lowe and that missed travel are terrible calls
 
I hope the first acquisition in the portal this offseason is some 250-pound defense/rebounding goon.

I don't care if the only offense he can give you is to set a pick.

Lucky to be down by 1 at the half. Really need to elevate their intensity in the second half. Good news is Pitt has done that for the most part this year
 
Halftime notes:

13-5 run for us early; 25-16 run for them late

The turnover when we were up 18-10 was huge - it started a 6 minutes+ drought in scoring

The foul calls were questionable at best; the charge on Lowe was really bad

Louisville is 14-5 on second chance points compared to us

I keep reflecting back on other games we've played at the Pete this year when we've come back in the second half to regain the lead and win - we need another one like that today

Let's Go Pitt!

That was not a foul on GDG. L'ville player leaned in. Still, we look like 💩 to start this half.
 
GDG back to playing soft and tentative

Our Guards are out of control.

Team looks totally out of sync
