No. 19 Louisville Breezes To 90-82 Victory Over DePaul

PrintIn a game that was never truly in doubt, the 19th-ranked Louisville Cardinals cruised to their seventh win in eight games with a 90-82 victory over host DePaul.
Senior Kyle Kuric led the way for U of L, making five three-pointers and finishing with a team-high 25 points. Chris Smith and Russ Smith each added 18 points, the latter making a pair of key buckets during an extremely relaxing - almost therapeutic - overtime period.
"Any Cardinal fan who expressed concern at any point this afternoon must have a serious issue with paying attention," Louisville head coach Rick Pitino did not say after the game. "This is DePaul Day. This is what happens. I'm not sure how many more times it has to be explained."
"Word," CardChronicle.com proprietor Mike Rutherford added.
And for those who deserve it...
Every year, guys.
DePaul Day stays DePaul Day.

Rumors that I tore a shirt and threw a bottle are just that
Rumors. Rumors and falsehoods concocted by my enemies.

Most animated gif makers let you choose the amount of time to show each image frame.
So if you want to speed it up, you can. Some programs even have a overall length of time setting and/or % from original setting.

yeah, thanks
I didn’t know. It’s just so much faster than what I see on MY computer (on the stepdads), I was ready to go get some more RAM.
GO! CARDS!
BEAT!
PURDUE!
If you're viewing the gif using IE, it will be slower
IE just sucks like that.

I believe it is the original speed.
But, as someone else pointed out, you can speed the gif’s up by specifying the amount of time between each frame. When I was producing this one, the default speed the program chose slowed it down a notch so I had to tweak it. When comparing it with the original video it’s pretty close….

I approve of this sexiness being a staple of DePaul Day

Lets just go ahead and retire the UofL tree face.
I don’t want to say it wanted to ruin our Depaul day, but I saw him hanging around with a certain little person earlier. Do the right thing Rutherford.
I think a safe rule would be if it belongs in your yard it shouldn't be a thread image.
But a win is a win so who are we to judge.
It's undefeated, just like the gnome

im personally a fan of,
Pitino shaking Russells head during OT after his back to back buckets. It summed up the Pitino/Russ relationship in a brief second.
RUSS SMITH's #1 fan.

Wait, I thought three goggles were stupid and gross.

Agree.
I rewound that on my dvr and shook my head when I saw Marra do it.

It's cute when he does it.
Because it’s not his shot & he does it before the ball leaves their hands. And because he’s Mike Marra.
But in every other situation you’re right, it’s stupid & obnoxious. Especially if you’re wearing blue. Even more so if you’re wearing blue & have a foam finger in the shape of 3 goggles.
thats cause he is pretty hot

So my iPhone failed...but even though the Gosling image is posted above, this one goes out to bythesidewalk...
She celebrates it like none I’ve ever seen.
It was a privilege to witness her celebration at the arena today.

Incoming.
Prepare, because roughly one thousand people took this photo and said they were sending it to Card Chronicle. I stood there for a long time after the game.

I love some R. Gos in my honor.
Thanks for sitting with us, it was way fun.
by bythesidewalk on Feb 18, 2012 4:06 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Definitely fun.
Especially since the game was never ever in doubt. Ever.

Really happy to win, but...
This more turnovers-than-assists thing has to stop. It is holding us back.
by cardsinindy2010 on Feb 18, 2012 3:27 PM EST reply actions
I think
That this is one of those games where you say,“Man, there isn’t a lot to criticize about us. DePaul just played really well.”
Remember the Beef Bowl!

I'm with cardsinindy
Love the grit of this team but I do not see how we do damage in the tourney turning the ball over like we do. The 0.98 Asst-TO ratio and 67% from the FT line is a recipe for disaster.
Of course our lack of getting back on D helped them immensely
Not to mention our 62% FT shooting the first half. But a win is a win. I just hate to have to go to OT for DePaul.
They just straight up beat our press.

They beat us downcourt off defensive rebounds too.
Their big guys out ran our big guys the entire first half.
First Depaul day I've fully submitted to.
Wore my unlucky shirt. It was 0-4 (0-3 BB, 0-1 FB) prior to today. Cursed shirt = broken by Depaul Day.

Bet you don't post this on the SBN main page...
That you are the responsible for real BBall news.
GO! CARDS!
BEAT!
PURDUE!
History truly is written by the winners, eh Rutherford?...
It is almost poetic how you have shown that here. Props.
NiceUgly-at-times win. But still a fun game. Go Cards!
Dinner at Hammerheads and the Kevin Hart show.
Doin Depaul day 2 right!

the tie
What is the deal with tieless Rick? Inquiring minds want to know!
He must have spilled coconut water on it.

This is how it felt.
But never in real doubt.
by bythesidewalk on Feb 18, 2012 8:42 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
I have to say, honestly, that the feeling in the arena was that we were always going to win.
The game thread is sad because so many lost hope, and in Chicago, we just kept up the C-A-R-D-S. Pat on the back, us.

Just got my third text from UK fans
telling me how much the cards suck. Funny, having the #1 team doesn’t make them happy, it’s hating that does.
Follow me at @bevolutionary
just be the better person and congratulate them on all of their tough SEC wins in a stacked conference. 4 teams in the top ten is impressive.
sorry, i thought it was still football season for a second.

Nobody outside of UK can beat ND if they keep playing like this.
Wouldn’t be a bit surprised if ND makes final four.
The key for Notre Dame, though
Will be winning in the tournament. Something they’ve struggled with a lot under Brey

Motion to nominate a new CC community standard
When posting an image, especially a .gif, one should always place a character* in the SUBJECT field so that other users can “title click” the subject line to minimize said image.
*Character = letter, number, symbol, etc. Typing something as simple as a period into the SUBJECT field is enough to give other CC users the option to minimize your image/.gif.

but isn't it too late by then to do any good?
I mean, unless it’s a nude shot of Burt Reynolds that you never want to see again in your life.
