No. 3: Louisville Cardinals
Louisville basketball is finally looking like the team we all saw in November this season, and it couldn't be coming at a better time for Pat Kelsey's squad. Louisville is currently on a five-game win streak, and with quality quad one wins over teams like Baylor, SMU, and North Carolina State, the Cardinals are getting hot at just the right time.
Louisville is seeking to be in the top four of the ACC Tournament, as the Cardinals currently sit in seventh place but are just one game back from the No. 4 seed. The Cardinals' five-game win streak had them jump up three spots in the AP Poll, as they are now ranked No. 21.
Mikel Brown has scored 74 points in just the last two games alone, and the Cardinals are finally starting to realize their defensive potential at just the right time as well. Louisville will look to defeat SMU again tonight on the road and beat Georgia Tech on Saturday as well.
