#11 Louisville Cardinals vs. #9 Indiana Hoosiers

This is probably second on the list of games that the Cardinals should struggle with over the next five games. However, there is some good news. This game will be played at a neutral site court in Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

2016 Wins: #3 Kansas, UMass Lowell, Liberty, Mississippi Valley State, #3 UNC, SIU Edwardsville, Southeast Missouri State, Houston Baptist

2016 Losses: Fort Wayne

Indiana is one of the most complex basketball teams in the entire country. I don’t even know who someone loses to Fort Wayne, but beats North Carolina and Kansas in the same three weeks.

With that being said, what we’ve learned is that Indiana can play with the best teams in America, while also being vulnerable to the upset.

They can shoot the basketball with amazing success, but let’s see how they handle the pressure of Louisville’s defense on December 31st.
