Chris Mack is a good coach, and Louisville is loaded with talent as usual. They don’t really have a true point guard, but you know all of them can defend. Luckily for Pitt, Mack doesn’t really press. Louisville already has four losses but they are at a neutral site to #3 Tennessee, neutral site to #21 Marquette, at #22 Indiana, and home against #18 Kentucky. They also have a win over #6 Michigan State.
Last Meeting: Feb 11, 2018 Louisville 94 Pitt 60
Prediction: Louisville is flying under the radar because of their typically tough non-conference schedule. The line only being 2.5 seems really low. Here’s hoping that Pitt has gotten all the conference game jitters out of their system and are ready to play with the big boys. I have my doubts. Louisville 78 Pitt 63
Hail to Pitt.
