Final Vegas spread has Louisville favored by 10.5 points vs. NC State. KenPom's algorithm has UL winning by 11, with 87% confidence UL wins.

Russ goes in to hug Gorgui, and Gorgui takes off Russ's toboggan.

Russ getting ovation as he strolls over fashionably late to join Gorgui courtside. It must be Valentine's Day because all my loves are here!

As @CharlieThomas points out, Cat Barber must have stolen some of Wayne's food in that visit. He's making him pay today.

Legit curious whether Anas is a practicing Muslim. Hope @UofLbball_ lets us learn more about his backstory, transition to U.S., etc.

Trevor Lacey vs. Mangok Mathiang at the 3-point line ended poorly for Mangok Mathiang.

Halftime Update: Gorgui just ripped Russ' hat off his head and threw it on the floor. Then they laughed and play-shoved each other.
— Rachel (@snicklefritz35) February 14, 2015
A minute and a half into the second half, Rick Pitino calls timeout. Right on cue
— Scott King (@cardscott5) February 14, 2015
Wayne Blackshear mowing down players like his hips are made of titanium steel!!
— Rachel (@snicklefritz35) February 14, 2015
Haha. It looked like Chris Jones was trying to get a shot off before Rick could call a timeout.

Harrell flies over courtside seats, into second row, slaps hands with little girls on his way back out to court.
— Eric Crawford (@ericcrawford) February 14, 2015
Montrezl Harrell is good for one crowd leap a game, it seems. Man should get on the track team. Hurdles, long jump, something.
— Dana O'Neil (@ESPNDanaOneil) February 14, 2015
Montrezl Harell came about 3 inches from killing an old lady there.

“You could hear the ice melt in somebody’s bourbon glass in here when they’re shooting FTs.” Great line!
— Lauren Brownlow (@lebrownlow) February 14, 2015
When Montrezl Harrell dove over the front row seats and up into the crowd for a loose ball he broke the metal temporary railing. Broke it.
— Howie Lindsey (@howielindsey) February 14, 2015
Pitino just now: "Wayne ... Wayne! Start playing defense."
— Jeff Greer (@jeffgreer_cj) February 14, 2015
Pretty sure whoever’s running Louisville’s StatBroadcast is taking a sip or two of bourbon before updating

UL needs to pull this out or no sex for anyone tonight.
— Cardinal Laws (@CardinalLaws) February 14, 2015
Louisville defenders love playing super aggressive defense 35 feet from the hoop and then getting blown past by the dribbler.

Oh, Quentin Snider hitting today too? Did he and Sheldon Jeter find some magical rock to rub earlier this week?
— Lauren Brownlow (@lebrownlow) February 14, 2015
Already prepared for Rick to say postgame that he should play Snider more.

All of NC State's names are so damn cool. That shoulda been a red flag right there.

Dumb way for Rozier to foul out. Game over.
— Reid Forgrave (@ReidForgrave) February 14, 2015
#UofL’s body language says players are bracing for the postgame tirade.
— Eric Crawford (@ericcrawford) February 14, 2015
Rozier commits just 2.2 fouls/40 min. Pitino should have brought him back in earlier. Just bad luck. Feels like this isn't Louisville's day.
— Jeff (BPredict) (@BPredict) February 14, 2015
Can someone stop #3 from Louisville? Kevin Hart has like 30 points out there.
— Brian Onorio (@brianonorio) February 14, 2015
Deserved win for NC State. On the other side, this is way more concerning than the previous four losses.
— doctorofdunk (@doctorofdunk) February 14, 2015
Wayne Blackshear's 19 points are most he's scored in ACC play. #Louisville trails, 71-64, with 20.9 seconds left.

Montrezl Harrell averages 10.7 field goal attempts per game. He's averaged 8.4 FGA in Louisville's five losses. Took 5 shots in NCSU loss.

Louisville has had 7 steals in their past 3 games, the lowest 3-game total since January 1985 vs. Cincinnati, NC State, and Virginia Tech.
