Will Louisville (6) get the victory against Virginia (9), tonight in Charlottesville?

 

We all know the Cards struggle mightily vs. Virginia, they are 1-4 against Virginia since joining the ACC. But…. the Cards are playing pretty “hot” right now, even without Quentin Snider & Tony Hicks.

 

Game is 7pm tonight on ESPN.

A frustrating foul fest that Louisville loses. Same as every Virgina game.

Can't argue without Deuce's analysis here. Louisville drops another frustrating game to Virginia. I'll say final margin is six. 61-55.

 

If Louisville can't get this one then next Monday at Syracuse might be must-win if we're to get that double bye in the ACC tournament. Looks like about six teams chasing those top four spots with ND trending down and Duke and Cuse both trending up.

I predict an ugly, typical UVA game.

I woke up an optimist (like Kanye….). I’m feeling Donovan will somehow get through the defense, shoot well, and the Cards scrape out a win…. Go Cards!

Mangok is as close to irrelevant as you can be. Also removed him as a captain.

 

Not having Adel will hurt, but they were going to lose regardless.

I'm far from a big Mangok fan, but he has coincidentally been playing great in this past stretch of really good basketball.

Something ugly and low-scoring, I'm 100% with @Getslow that it is in the vicinity of:

 

Louisville 57

Virginia 60

Mangok is hot garbage water.

There's something freeing about watching basketball with zero expectation of good things happening (take it from me, I went to Dayton). I'm actually looking forward to watching this game with no hope of victory. The slightest good thing that happens will be a significant boost to my expectations.

Did President Trump already know about this? Is this why he was so mad at the Australian Prime Minister?

 

"More loser basketball players from Down Under who can't keep curfew. Sad!"
