That may have been the worst end to a first half in the history of basketball. Louisville has it, inbounding on their own end line with 5.4 to go. The inbounds pass is lofted up directly to a wide open BC player at the top of the arc who dribbles it the length of the court... and blows a wide open layup.
BC does the job by 10. Next up for Louisville is ND.
The quest for 0-20 lives on for another game for Louisville!
They’re now 2-18, 0-9 and 301 overall on Kenpom. There are 363 total D1 teams ranked on Kenpom.
Louisville is well on their way to 2-19, 0-10. They are down 46-24 at the half at Notre Dame.
Really close game in Winston right now between Wake and NC State. ACC network before our game.
To be fair they doubled Burns a couple times and pushed him to the high post once late. On those 3 possessions Burns found a guy for a 3pt attempt, and State hit 2 of those 3 attempts. I think Burns ended with 14-26 and 3-8 from the line for 31 points and 2 turnovers line. ESTIMATING just short of 1ppp. Giving good looks from 3 almost certainly yields more than 1ppp (esp as NCSU shot about 42% from 3 on the day). So maybe Forbes was right to do it? OR it's at least a close call.
Pitt, down 68-60, with a gallant rally beats Miami 71-68. Jeff has Pitt playing very well. They/Jeff will make the dance!
Quite the Miam@Pitt game. Pitt took their first lead in the second half with about :30 to go, and holds on for the win.

Good for Pitt, less good for us as Miami was heading towards making our home win over them a Q1 win.
Wow. Pitt beat Miami 71-68 in an exciting finish. Pitt inbounding the ball up 1 with 7 seconds left and the Pitt player stepped on the line to turn the ball over. Then Miami, inbounding under its own basket (still down 1) had the inbounds pass stolen by Pitt, and had to foul. Pitt player hits both ends of 1 and 1 (both teams has fouls to give in the waning seconds). Congrats to Pitt for hanging on!
Clemson is good this year to me.
