it's on the road vs pitino. a loss here could send the hoyas into a confidence void and each opponent should be treated like they could wipe the floor with you.

maybe by the team but even then I don't agree entirely. I think you should treat the opponent like you'll kick their ass if you do everything right but that they could very easily kick your ass if you let them. You shouldn't go into a game thinking you're going to lose. but this is probably just semantics.

and yes pitino pulled out the white suit for the white out game against Nova that they choked away.

yes, all i meant any team in this league can beat the hoyas and should be treated as such. i don't want to regurge nonsense about the recent losses, but it seems a change of attitude is needed with this team and it can start tonight.

i would love to see pitino wear the fantasy island suit or a straight up red zoot suit with matching boots.

My recommendation for Rick Pitino's wardrobe on the sidelines tonight:

I cant imagine how anxious the guys are to play tonight. I think this whole Board is ready to play tonight's game.

I will be happy to give my 5 fouls whenever they may be needed.

Very scary stat: Louisville collects an offensive rebound on 41% of its misses (tops in the BE and 8th in the country)

I saw that the line on the game is +4 for Louisville. I am not impressed by Louisville and this line seems to really be a "perception" line. They beat cuse...but I am not impressed by much of their work. At least that is what I am telling myself.

[Buckets]

Playing 32 minutes of basketball and being behind DePaul will do that to perceptions of your team. As will having your best player get outplayed by Mac Koshwal. Though you could perhaps say the same of losing to Rutgers.

here we go again

NO defense.. Sucks Another slow start... They have to come out with fire inthere eyes

[GIGAFAN99]

Actually we're getting open looks all over the place. They're just not going down at all. We won't shoot 12% for this game.

Fire in their eyes? Vaughn is fighting like mad for every rebound so far. They missed a few shots, it's not a lack of "fire".

[richfame]

Louisville extends there D Maybe we can try that a bit...

[richfame]

were giving up layups KSF... Please

[richfame]

and open 3's BTW

[DanMcQ]

Unnecessary foul call on Hollis. Barely contacted the guy and no ball possession change, not even a bobble. BS call. I thought this was supposed to be the Big East?

[Z]

Another explanation of the "Elmore Index" and the "Elmore Einstein" picture upcoming - sweet!

[lurkerhoya]

Gotta scheme for when they double Greg. That's gotta be what we exploit.

Does Elmore know that Monroe is, in fact, left handed?

[DanMcQ]

No, that ball was not touched by a Cardinal, but Clark's arm was.
