Louisville just snuck by the Wake Forest Demon Deacons to leave Winston-Salem with an overtime victory.
What was expected to be an easy win for the Cards turned into a nail-biting near disaster.
Baby, it’s cold inside
The game opened up as a back-and-forth affair until the Cards went on a scoring drought several minutes. Coupled with seven first quarter turnovers, Wake Forest took advantage of the Louisville mistakes to the tune of a five-point lead.
The Cards had a chance to close the gap to a one-possession game, but twice failed to score.
