Louisville rebounds, rolls past free-falling UConn
Louisville,
KY (02-01-2010): The University of Louisville
figured out that the best way to avoid another league
apology was to keep it from being a close game.
Samardo Samuels chipped in 13 points as the
Cardinals (14-8, 5-4 Big East) bounced back from a
potentially devastating loss at West Virginia on
Saturday with arguably their biggest win of the season.
Louisville never trailed and built a 19-point lead early
in the second half before holding off a couple of mild
runs by the Huskies.
It was a game the Cards sorely needed after the Big East
admitted to "procedural and communication errors" in
their losses to the West Virginia and Seton Hall this
season.
"We've just been getting jerked," said UofL
forward Samuels, who had 13 points before fouling
out. "Most of the teams that have beat us are not
better than us. We have a great team; we've just been
getting, like, bad calls — it's always something. Today
our guys were like, 'We're not going to make it come
down to a final whistle."
