My Prediction
Louisville Cardinals by 14If you love a game of accomplished giants, this Stanford-Louisville match has some delightful treats. Louisville's Terrence Edwards has been an absolute firecracker in his recent games, scoring an impressive 21.4 points per game last month, while his teammate Chucky Hepburn isn't far behind with 20 points per game of his own. These boys really crack the walnut under pressure!
Stanford Cardinal, on the other hand, can't boast of such big numbers, but they certainly have their artillery. Maxime Raynaud has been bringing his A-game this season, scoring an average of 20.2 points and bagging 10.8 rebounds per game this season. But aside from Raynaud's brilliance, Stanford's team has a palette to serve up on the court.
While a glance at the records might suggest this is a close call game, with Louisville boasting a 24-6 season record against Stanford's respectable 19-11, the horse runs wild in the recent results column. Louisville isn't just beating teams, they're trampling them flat, whereas the Cardinal have had a couple of trips over the shoelaces recently.
In terms of the rankings, the difference is - well, it's black and white, isn't it? Louisville's cool kids sit loftily in the #14 spot, while Stanford...well, there seems to be a typo on my notes, because they're not ranked at all! Odd, isn't it?
Therefore, my prediction, dear listeners, and you can quote me on this one:
