Lucas: A Familiar Sight

LOUISVILLE—The team on the floor on Saturday afternoon at the KFC Yum! Center looked familiar. They were a team with championship aspirations rounding into late February form. They were a group getting contributions from starters and reserves alike, a team with some potent offensive firepower also learning how to cohesively defend on a consistent basis.

Carolina fans have seen this team repeatedly over the last 17 years. Unfortunately, this time it was the opponent.

Louisville continued a march towards what should be a long postseason with a 72-55 victory over North Carolina. For the Tar Heels, the day encapsulated everything that's been frustrating about this season.
