Series History: Louisville leads the all-time series 19-10. The two have been conference rivals in the Big East and now in the ACC. Syracuse lost the first four matchups in the series, which occurred in the 60s and 70s. From 2007-2011, Louisville won seven in a row against the Orange. Since joining the ACC, Louisville leads 4-3. Syracuse has won two of the last three, however, with the Cardinals winning last season's only matchup 90-66. 

What to Know About Louisville: Louisville has not played since February 1st due to being on a pause as a result of positive covid tests. They will still be without two scholarship players against Syracuse, assistant coach Dino Gaudio. He did not specify which two players. Louisville is led by guards Carlik Jones and David Johnson. Jones leads the team in scoring (17.4 points per game), assists (4.9 assists per game) and steals (1.4 steals per game). Johnson is their best three point shooter at over 42% on the season. Other than Johnson, Louisville is not a great three point shooting outfit. The rest of the team is shooting just 28% from the outside. 

Both guards rebound the ball well with Jones snatching 5.6 and Johnson 6.1 rebounds per game. Louisville has three front court players that should concern Syracuse. Jae'Lyn Withers at 6-8, 230, Samuell Williamson at 6-7, 210 and Dre Davis at 6-5, 220. Each can really rebound the ball. Withers and Williamson each average more than 7.5 boards per contest.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
