The beginning of ACC play has not gone as well as Louisville basketball fans would have hoped. After dominating California to open conference play, the Cards followed it up with a disappointing loss at Stanford last Friday night. In another game without star guard Mikel Brown Jr., Louisville shot just 22% from three-point range and lost to a Stanford team that had scored only 40 points against Notre Dame in its previous game.
Looking ahead, things do not get much easier. Louisville returns home to face a top-ten Duke team this Tuesday night at 7 p.
