Louisville basketball just secured their 20th win of their season and they are dominating their opponents even on the road.
Micah Shrewsberry and his Notre Dame Fighting Irish became Pat Kelsey and Cardinals next road victim as Cardinals won 75-60 on the road in Purcell Pavilion Sunday night. Louisville basketball 12th man clearly was a factor last night as Cardinals nation was loud at Notre Dame, and caused Shrewsberry to storm out of his press conference last night in complete frustration.
After Cardinals 75-60 win, Micah Shrewsberry took the mic in his press conference and had a lot to say on his teams performance, however, the environment clearly hit home and rattled him.
Louisville basketball 12th man rattles Micah Shrewsberry
Cardinals nation seemed to be the 13th reason and Shrewsberry has had enough of their fanbase and called the environment from last nights game "embarrassing."
"I sat there and watched more Louisville fans in here, than Notre Dame people, and that's embarrassing, that's embarrassing for me, because I am the head coach here. Yes, I got us in this predicament, But don't come back when we are winning, because we are turning this around man. You better believe that." Shrewsberry stated in his press conference.

"Everybody that gave up on me believe it. Write this date down and believe it because we are going to get this thing rolling." Shrewsberry stated
He then slammed the mic and sent the mic flying off the stage. Cardinals nation has been known to get a lot of praise from their head coach Pat Kelsey, as he said the student body owns the program and they are the most important aspect of the team.
Louisville fan base had many long years of suffrage before Pat Kelsey and his tenure, and Kelsey has finally prevailed what this Cardinals nation has wanted.
Cardinals nation is known to be one of the most loyal and one of the best fan bases in this country, and clearly on Sunday it showed. Head coach of Notre Dame clearly took offense to the Cardinals nation showing in the Pavilion and the environment they displayed in South Bend.
They were loud, and they impacted the game as they always do. Kelsey said he loved the environment in his post game and thought it was a great showing for the weather that was going on in South Bend. Louisville basketball fan base is known to travel and they made it clear today to Micah Shrewsberry.
Lousiville basketball has just five games remaining in the regular season, and four of them are at home in KFC Yum! Center. Their next game ins't until Saturday at noon local time against Florida State on their home court.
