Bad No. 3: Getting Outscored 54-38 in the Second Half At Home

As most of us were falling asleep while watching this second half, Pittsburgh and Jamel Artis were going off on the Cardinals. There were many reasons why they were able to cut the Cards’ lead to five, but every one of those reasons should have been thwarted by the Cardinals early.

It is kind of concerning because Louisville has had a bad habit of building a large lead, but not playing well for all 40 minutes.

If there is any good news in any of this point, it’s that Louisville was able to win this basketball game. However, if the basketball game was 42 minutes long, then who knows what the score would have been, especially with how poorly Louisville was shooting at the line.
