The flow of the game was better in the second half, but it was a turnover fest in the first half as Louisville goes on and wins 79-60 in a game that might have been the longest game in the tournament that did not go into overtime. There were twenty-five turnovers in the first half. Louisville had sixteen turnovers in the first half and still led by 7.

Tennessee did not shoot well for the game. There was 12:08 left in the game before Chris Lofton made his first field goal. Tennessee had rallied a couple of times from double-digit deficits, but no one ever really stepped up to lead a consistent challenge to Louisville. Earl Clark looked great again for Louisville, getting a double-double.

The wide-open running game that Tenn plays will quite often create and commit a bunch of turnovers. Can be fun to watch, but this game was indeed very sloppy.
