Stop me if you’ve heard this before: Louisville battled all night to put itself in position to win a game it was supposed to lose, but the Cardinals failed to make the plays necessary down the stretch to secure a victory.
The latest installment of this seemingly never-ending series was a 70-63 loss at North Carolina Monday night.
With the Tar Heels leading, 64-63, and Louisville in control of the ball with under two minutes to play, the game essentially came down to four key possessions.
Louisville took a pair of unnecessary three-pointers too early in the shot clock from a 23.
