Louisville Cardinals Set to Face Bellarmine Knights at KFC Yum! Center

As the Louisville Cardinals prepare to host the Bellarmine Knights at the KFC Yum! Center, fans can anticipate a game where recent trends and performances will play a significant role. The Cardinals have shown resilience and adaptability in their past games, with a notable victory against New Mexico State Aggies in an overtime thriller where they scored 90 points. Their ability to capitalize on second-chance points was evident as they amassed 20 compared to just 8 by the Aggies.

However, consistency has been an issue for Louisville, as seen in their loss against Indiana Hoosiers where they only managed 66 points. Despite this setback, there were positives to draw from their performance; particularly their free-throw accuracy which stood at approximately 72 percent.


In another close encounter with Texas Longhorns, ranked 19th at the time, Louisville narrowly missed out on victory by just one point. Their commendable free-throw percentage of around 87 percent nearly tipped the scales in their favor.


Analyzing these past performances reveals that while Louisville's shooting from beyond the arc can fluctuate—they shot an impressive approximately 44 percent against Texas but only around 20 percent versus New Mexico State—their strength lies within paint scoring and drawing fouls to earn opportunities at the line.


The venue itself may offer an advantage for Louisville; playing on home turf often provides teams with added confidence and energy from supportive fans. With recent games showing strong offensive rebounds and second-chance efforts, maintaining this intensity could be key against Bellarmine Knights.


Fans should expect a competitive matchup as both teams strive for dominance on court. The game is scheduled for November 30th at KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, KY. Tip-off is set for local time (1:00 AM GMT), and those unable to attend can catch live action via ACC Network Extra online broadcast networks.
