#7 Northwestern vs #2 Louisville - 3/24/21

[nwhoopfan]

I've been giving Louisville a tough time, but they never panicked. Whole game has been a struggle but they kept their heads up. NW left the door open instead of putting this away after a pretty much perfect start to the game.

 

[nwhoopfan]

11-0 run, now 40-39

 

[nwhoopfan]

Cochran going to the FT line, Ville can grab the lead.

edit--hit 1 of 2; first tie of the game

 

[Baylor1994]

Pulliam takes the dumbest shots my god

 

[nwhoopfan]

3/4 court heave at the buzzer hits front rim, all tied up going into Q4.

 

[LETTERL]

40-40 game, going to Q4. Louisville on a 33-15 run

 

[Vowelguy]

Could see this coming — NW taking bad shot after shot and have scored 15 total the last 2 quarters.

 

[Vowelguy]

It seems like they have like 10 thousand players on their team lol aren’t they only losing Dana evans and adding a couple of recruits?

Return 11, add 2
Assuming no transfers

 

[nwhoopfan]

First lead of the game for the Cards. They might end up winning in a blowout.

 

[Vowelguy]

Lou now in control
But can they beat the Ducks?

 

[triaddukefan]

Dag..... hate having these close games around dinner time

 

[Childhood]

It's nice to keep Louisville in the tournament.

 

[Zinethar]

Northwestern folding under pressure. Louisville having the slow start issues UConn had earlier. They might not be able to catch the better teams is they start like that.

 

[Zinethar]

Did the Louisville player that got hit in the eye earlier ever return?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Mo has left Louisville. 47-45 lead still. Could go either way, 5 minutes left.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Big 3 for Evans.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Did the Louisville player that got hit in the eye earlier ever return?

Been a bit distracted, but I don't think so. Haven't been aware of hearing her name. Don't think the announcers have given an update.

 

[Zinethar]

ACC has 2 (NC State and Georgia Tech)

You are correct of course. I was taking them off the ESPN bracket and missed it somehow. I'd like to pretend that it wasn't on that bracket yet but we both know better.

 

[Mulder]

The Cardinals - plural - are going to pull out a W.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Dagger step back 3 for Hailey Van Lith.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Hamilton answers. 53-50.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Evans is 5-16 today. Hailey Van Lith is 4-4. Evans carried them much of the year, but her tendency toward hero ball is a detriment now I think. Need ball movement and spreading shots around.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Careless TO by Louisville, but then great play by Robinson to take it back.

 

[Baylor1994]

Can’t believe northwestern choked! Louisville still going to lose to Oregon or Stanford anyways

 

[Kaizen]

NW only plays a good 1st Q, then down for 3 Qs.
