A new era of college basketball is upon us, as this game is being called the Battle of the Graduate Transfers. Coach Pitino likes to call them “Done-and-won” players rather than the common “one-and-done” freshman we see sweeping the nation. Whatever you want to call them, former Big East rival Pittsburgh comes into the KFC Yum! Center with a 14-1 overall record, and are sporting an undefeated 3-0 record in the ACC. Louisville comes into this game with a 13-3 overall record, and a 2-1 conference record.
What to Watch for:
- Dating back to the 2010-2011 season, the Cardinals are a perfect 5-0 against the Panthers.
