Louisville Duke thread

[jocoshock]

I wonder, if EO will play a big role in the upcoming game. If he can block shots without fouling, it would be excellent.

I don't believe that Armstead and Van Vleet can stay with Smith and Siva.

I wonder, if it is worthwhile to try to contain one with double teaming and do our best on the other with single man play.

I agree that Demetric just may get a lot of minutes. Fred cannot cover either one without help.

Louisville sorta appears to be a 3 man team. Smith and Siva dominate possession of the ball for the Cardinals.

Agree on the defensive challenges for our guards. That's why we need to be in attack mode also. It will come down to who gets in foul trouble first. EO will have to play a big role in rebounding and blocks.

So did all the experts say Duke was overmatched like they will say about us?

isnt that what they said about us when we played Pitt, Gonzaga, and Ohio State

When did Creighton play Louisville? What year? I could not find it.

Never mind.

Would have loved to knock off Duke but Louisville will have to do.

They just did - too much depth, conditioning, yada yada yada...

1999. Louisville lost 62-58.

Yes, its so predictable. And they obviously are brilliant at analyzing info. We may very well get drilled, but its like there is a book of talking points that they just fill in the team names and talk.

I honestly think we match up better with Louisville than Duke did. Duke looked very slow to me...I think we do better but will need to penetrate and dish and hit our 3's.

Damn... guess the jokes you hear on other teams' boards about the intelligence of people from the state of Big Blue is correct.

Nominated for worst grammar ever seen on SN.

ulou relies on that press so much. armstead, vanvleet and baker will be under the microscope- i think they will be ready.

Agree about penetration and kickouts... Something tells me the paint is going to be a bear... We just have to be equally agressive in attacking the paint with our guards as they are. Make them defend us and stay out of foul trouble. We will have to watch the fouls a well. Could be a high scoring game if both teams watch their foul situations... Which means our defense may have to breathe a little..

Would love to see the video on those games... I'm sure our coaching staff will...
