Cardinal Sports Insider: Louisville's matchup problem and square pegs in round holes

Editor’s Note: Introducing Cardinal Sports Insider. Moving forward, specifically throughout the basketball season, the Cardinal Sports Insider will be a weekly blog-style publication, written by the site publisher, William McDermott.  Posted each Friday of the season, Insider will feature anything from opinion-based commentary, in-depth statistical analysis, film review, and a behind-the-scenes look into Louisville basketball on a weekly basis.  Last week’s volume can be found here.  Louisville’s 83-62 loss at No. 20 Tennessee felt like a wakeup call.  Pat Kelsey says his team was ready for the fight in Knoxville, but the box score and eye test would prove otherwise. Louisville was bullied, and the Vols exposed two of the Cards’ biggest limitations in the interior and in particular at the power forward position. Right now, Louisville’s versatile players aren’t playing that way and Kelsey is left to mend the pieces.  RELATED — What went wrong in Louisvilles loss at Tennessee Tennessee cleanup
