It started bad, got better, then turned into an all-out disaster as Louisville was handed a humiliating 99-77 loss by Wake Forest Saturday night in Winston-Salem.
The Demon Deacons shot a blistering 58.2 percent from the field as a team, including 13-of-27 from beyond the arc. Louisville, meanwhile, turned the ball over 14 times and went just 3-of-17 from three.
The lone bright spot for the Cardinals was big Sydney Curry, who came off the bench to pour in a career-high 28 points on 13-of-18 shooting from the floor. Fellow reserve Noah Locke (14) was the only other U of L player to score in double figures.
