Good No. 4: Louisville Dominated On The Glass

We’ve talked about how important it is for this Louisville basketball team to dominate in the areas which they are superior and they were able to do that again on Wednesday night. The good news is that they have been able to dominate the glass all season long, which is a large reason why they have won 14 of their 17 games this year.

Louisville out-rebounded the 45-30 on Wednesday night and thank goodness that they did, because Pittsburgh made it way too close at the end.

It truly was a group-rebounding effort against the Panthers, as there was only one Cardinals basketball player that didn’t register a rebound.

With that being said, I think we all can cut Ryan McMahon come slack for not pulling down a board against Pittsburgh.
