The UConn Huskies (7-0) aim to extend their seven-game winning streak as they face the Louisville Cardinals (5-3) on Saturday, December 7, 2024, at Barclays Center.
Currently holding a 6-3 record, the Huskies have faced a tougher start than anticipated. All three of their losses came against undefeated, top-five-ranked teams. If the Cardinals want to stage an upset, they’ll need to elevate their game to match that level. Per Warren Nolan, the No. 2 Bracketologist and RPI expert, UConn has faced the most challenging schedule in the nation so far.
Meanwhile, the Louisville Cardinals boast an impressive 10-1 record and sit fourth in the Atlantic Coast Conference standings. However, they stumbled in their most recent outing, losing 78-72 to No. 11 Oklahoma on Wednesday. Leading the charge for Louisville are Tajianna Roberts and Jayda Curry, who are both averaging 12.0 points per game. Under the steady leadership of head coach Jeff Walz, now in his 18th season, the Cardinals continue to be a formidable unit.
