Game Day Live Blog: Louisville vs. Notre Dame | Game 27

The Cardinals return home after back-to-back road beatdowns to face the Fighting Irish.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Coming off of back-to-back blowout road losses, the Louisville men's basketball program is returning to the KFC Yum! Center, and will attempt to get back in the win column when they host Notre Dame.

The Cardinals' two-game road trip couldn't have gone much worse. At Boston College, Louisville was out-scored 50-30 in the second half to blow an eight-point halftime lead and suffer an 89-77 loss to the Eagles. Then at Pitt, UofL allowed Blake Hinson to score 41 points on them, fueling an 86-59 beatdown to the Panthers.

As for the Fighting Irish, year one under head coach Micah Shrewsberry has definitely been a rebuilding season. While Notre Dame sports a solid defense because of the effort they play with, they have struggled and then some on the offensive end. That being sad, they do enter the matchup with Louisville on a two-game winning streak against Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech.
