The BURN with Brey was hard to bear but this is WORSE. Pitino just has Jamie Dixon's number and that is all there is too it.

The team was just BAD.

Dixon... likes to go with Young and C and Jeter at PF but... on D Jeter was ending up having to cover their C and... was getting eaten alive. What the heck was that? Oh... Dixon just being stubborn.

Bad passes, bad shots, more bad passes.... the team was just BAD.

Dixon failed totally in preparing the players for this game. Maybe he has a psychological block. Yeah, he must have a psychological block when it comes to Pitino.
 
I could be wrong but Louisville seems to be one of the few DIV 1 teams left that still uses the full court press/takes full court defense seriously.

Pitt just doesn't have the ball handlers/quickness to deal with Louisville's pressure D, it is a good thing more teams on Pitt's schedule don't play this type of defense

I remember the ACC tournament game a few years ago with North Carolina, and how UNC came from way back against Pitt by using the full court press
