Louisville basketball renews its long-time rivalry with Memphis this weekend, their first meeting since the 2017-18 season. The teams have played 90 times, with Louisville holding a 54-36 record against the Tigers.
While it is hard to fast-forward to March and April, with Louisville 8-1 and the Cardinals' two wins over AP top-25 teams, Pat Kelsey has this team toward the top of NCAA Tournament projections. ESPN’s Joe Lunardi is one of the most well-known bracketologists, and he dropped Louisville in the seeds after their loss to Arkansas, but he just gave college basketball fans the game everyone has wanted.
