Quick hits from Louisville basketball’s ugly loss to Clemson

After a late night fight against Clemson, Louisville basketball came up short against Clemson in one of the team’s ugliest performances of the entire season.

It was a scrappy defensive battle that had all the makings of what you would expect out of a game scheduled just two days ago.

The Cardinals had three shot clock violations in the first half and a bunch of other offensive problems. But pesky defense and a cold shooting Clemson allowed them to hang around and take the lead into halftime.
