Great TEAM win and Siva was my player of the game! Great win made up for our loss to Providence.

Yeah baby! You said it - TEAM win.

Still unsure if it makes up for Providence or not

I watched the second half. It was a battle. Pitino and company orchestrated a great game plan in keeping Walker off his game. Siva played excellent...ONE THING....The Georgetown Thugs will drop him if he comes hard inside like that against him. I'm surprised Jim Calhoun allowed that so many times. He kept driving and scoring and they didn't stop him...GREAT play from that young man. TJones battled inside and won the biggest part of them I credit him with half the credit for the win...4 men on Walker and Jones batting Cleanup....

Good solid week of ball for U of L....

I was just hoping to keep it close. I never figured The Cards would have a chance with Deng (sp) out as well as the other injuries. I will take it. It was nice to see them play like a team. This team does not give up.

This team has heart that is for sure. The RPI will jump and beating a top 5 team on the road is huge on selection Sunday. This is a signature win provided they don't completely fall apart the rest of the season!

Siva is growing every game, imagine how good he would be if he would have gotten playing time last year.

Yep, very good win. I just had a feeling late that UL would find a way to pull it off...and they did...

Rutgers almost knocked off Pitt. I only saw the last few minutes but it was a good game to watch.

The Cards played one helluva game...They showed guts and heart...Haven't watched them a lot this season but the past couple games I've seen, WV, UConn, Marquette they've appeared to be more mentally tough than the other team....I'm pretty sure they just made the big dance even if they were to fall apart a bit here at the end....They keep playing the way they are and I'd say you're looking at a 5 seed....Amazing that 2 weeks ago they looked like a team that might struggle to make the field

It looked that way to you, I never questioned them making the March dance. I told ya, just giving you a little my friend......

I think Pitino should get coach of the year because of the talent he has and the way he has coached these guys to play hard. Hopefully the Cards will continue to play well.

Right now the only coach in the Big East that might deserve it as much but certainly not more would be Steve Lavin at St Johns. Your post is spot on, nobody expected Louisville to be decent this year at all and they are a solid ball team.
