Congratulations to Chris Mack and the Louisville men's basketball team on defeating No. 9 Michigan State in overtime last night. The win secures Louisville's undefeated November record in the KFC Yum! Center. Several women's basketball players were present to cheer the men on after the men had done the same for the women on Monday night. I'll be back in action and joining Paulie at the women's game Thursday night. I mean, who would turn down free dinner?
