Cards face a tough test in Villanova tonight
The University of Louisville men’s basketball team has been doing better lately. They defeated St. John’s on Saturday keeping their Big East record spotless. Samardo Samuels seems to be progressing nicely and especially in the 2nd half of the St. Johns game, Edgar Sosa is (finally) paying some big dividends in the shooting department.
The Cards are arguably coalescing as a team and things appear to be coming together. That said, Villanova is going to be a tough test. There are no “gimmes” in the Big East. And the 14-1 Wildcats are ready for the Cards after a narrow victory at Marquette.
The game at Freedom Hall tonight (7pm) will tell us a lot about the coming few weeks. Are the Cards ready for the big time? Have they developed enough to take on the Big East in the manner that they did last year despite not having the services and athletic presence of T Will? We will see.
