On easily its worst shooting night of the season, No. 1 ranked Louisville still found a way to take down its most difficult opponent to date by double figures. The Cards held No. 4 Michigan to a woeful 15-of-58 (25.9 percent) from the field on their way to a 58-43 win Tuesday night in an ACC-Big 10 Challenge game inside the KFC Yum Center.
Jordan Nwora was once again Louisville’s top offensive performer, finishing with 22 points despite an atypically subpar 9-of-23 shooting night. The preseason ACC Player of the Year made up for it by snagging a game-high 12 rebounds and seeming to be in the middle of every positive thing the Cardinals did all evening.
