-===== 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]].
