Marshall and Louisville were the two favorites in the Global Sports Shootout and now they will battle as the current top two teams in the standings.
Louisville will rely heavily on their pressure defense and the play of Terrence Jennings and Preston Knowles. Jennings and Knowles are the two best players the Cardinals have and they can certainly take over a basketball game. They can rebound the ball well, and they sure shot well in their win over the Mocs on Monday night.
Can Marshall Tirrell Baines and DeAndre Kane come up with the answers? This team has not rebounded particularly well and they have not shot the ball well against D-1 opponents. The Herd can go into Louisville and be a force with these two players playing well.
The Herd will need to rebound with the Cardinals and not let the pressure defense get to them. If the defensive pressure gets to them, they have no chance at all. If it doesn't, then the Herd have an opportunity to make some noise.
Louisville 71, Marshall 60.
