What's ahead for this Cards team.

[TheRealVille]

Okay boys and girls, I'm here to tell you all by March Louisville should not only be a tournament team, but a high seeded team.

So far, through six conferences games, the Cards have already played four of the top teams in the conference, winning three of them. The remaining 14 conference games are not so daunting a task to win.

Tell me how many of these games would the Cards be the underdog and where do you see a likely defeat?

@ Cuse 8-8
Virginia 8-8
@ SMU 12-4
Wake Forest 12-4
@ Georgia Tech 8-9
@ BC 9-7
Miami 4-12
@ NC State 9-7
@ ND 7-9
FSU 11-5
@ Virginia Tech 7-9
Pitt 12-4
California 8-8
Standard 11-5

So there you have it. How many wins will Louisville end up with? Playing like they are and no more serious injuries, I forsee something like 23 and 8.

The three losses to SMU, NC State and Pitt. If there's a 4th loss I would see it being Wake or ND.

So 22 or 23 wins would mean no bubble and probably a #5 or #6 seed.

Then there's the conference tournament which I believe is something Kelsey would thrive in. A run to the title game with Duke could move the Cards up to a #4 seed.

This Louisville team has proven to me even limited with injuries, that they are a very good team and due to a historic bad ACC conference, will take full advantage. Coach Kelsey will be ACC coach of the year and a candidate for national coach of the year.

i've already called acc final, sweet 16 at minimum and thinking elite 8 barring injuries. 5 seed at worst and 2nd weekend of tourney for sure

20 wins plus a run to ACC title game and a 6 seed in Tourney seems possible to me.

If we hit a cold-shooting stretch, we could lose more. Right now we are playing very well. I just wish CPK had a little longer bench. I think we sneak in to the tournament and win one game.

We're already a cold shooting team and we're winning anyway. If it takes sneeking into the tournament that means the Cards will lose 6 or more games against that schedule.

I just don't see it. ACC teams that are usually good like Virginia, NC State, Virginia Tech, Miami, and Syracuse are all very bad and could all end up with losing records.

If the Cards continue to play at least as good as they have been so far, they're not sneeking into anything. But I think they're only going to improve as Scott, Troure and Rooths improve.
