====== January 26, 2005 - Marquette vs. Louisville====== {{men_s_basketball:teams_marquette.gif|}} **Marquette 52 {{men_s_basketball:teams_lou.gif|}} (12) Louisville 99** ===== Recap ===== [[Louisville]] snapped a three-game losing streak to Marquette by absolutely embarrassing the Golden Eagles and handing them their worst loss in school history. Most people point to this game as the catalyst to Larry O'Bannon's immaculate two-month run that saw him earn MVP honors in the West Regional while U of L made its first run to the Final Four since 1986. The senior hit six three-pointers and scored a career high (for the time being) 30 points as the home crowd chanted "Lar-ee! Lar-ee!" for the first time in his four years as a Cardinal. "You can't beat that -- 20,000 people yelling for you. You can't even dream of that," O'Bannon said after the game. "I didn't want to crack a smile, but I was sunshine on the inside." Francisco Garcia added 14 points, while Marquette's [[Todd Townsend]] scored 17 to lead the way for a Golden Eagle team playing without star point guard [[Travis Diener]]. "He means a lot to our club and we learned how much tonight," said Marquette coach [[Tom Crean]]. ===== Notes ===== [[Louisville]]'s 47-point victory over Marquette on January 26th broke a Marquette record for margin of loss that stood since 1940. The Cardinals also knocked down an opponent-record 17 three pointers ===== Box Score ===== Official Basketball Box Score Marquette vs Louisville 01-26-05 7:01 pm EST at Freedom Hall, Louisville, KY -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VISITORS: Marquette 14-5, 2-4 TOT-FG 3-PT REBOUNDS ## Player Name FG-FGA FG-FGA FT-FTA OF DE TOT PF TP A TO BLK S MIN 35 Jackson, Marcus..... f 1-1 0-0 6-8 4 8 12 3 8 2 3 0 2 30 41 Barro, Ousmane...... f 3-4 0-0 1-1 1 1 2 4 7 0 2 1 0 28 43 Amoroso, Ryan....... f 1-5 1-2 4-6 0 2 2 0 7 0 5 0 0 18 30 Mason, Dameon....... g 3-8 0-0 0-0 1 1 2 5 6 3 5 0 1 19 32 Chapman, Joe........ g 1-8 0-2 0-0 0 0 0 2 2 1 3 0 0 21 01 Townsend, Todd...... 5-8 3-3 4-4 1 3 4 3 17 2 3 0 0 30 12 Hanley, Rob......... 0-0 0-0 0-0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 20 Novak, Steve........ 1-6 0-4 0-0 0 2 2 1 2 0 0 0 0 25 33 Grimm, Chris........ 0-0 0-0 0-0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 13 40 Kinsella, Mike...... 0-5 0-0 0-0 1 0 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 6 45 Berkowitz, Niv...... 1-1 1-1 0-2 0 1 1 0 3 0 1 0 0 8 TEAM................ 2 1 3 1 Totals.............. 16-46 5-12 15-21 10 19 29 20 52 8 23 1 3 199 TOTAL FG% 1st Half: 11-22 50.0% 2nd Half: 5-24 20.8% Game: 34.8% DEADB 3-Pt.
