Projection: likely out
Louisville has shown some offensive firepower, notably in their dominant win over Morehead State and Bellarmine. However, their loss to Tennessee exposed significant gaps, particularly against top-tier competition, highlighting weaknesses on offense against stronger defenses. Upcoming games against teams like Indiana and Kentucky present critical tests; a win against a ranked opponent would significantly boost their profile. Conversely, losing these matches, especially when facing teams with a much higher rank, could severely damage their tournament prospects. Overall, consistency will be key, as their current record does not instill confidence in their ability to compete in a challenging conference.
