I thought Louisville would beat Arizona by a reasonable comfortable margin.
I did think the Wildcats would be a bit closer than within 21 points, though. They trailed in the Midwest Regional semifinal in Indianapolis, 49-28, at intermission.
The Cardinals have too many good players, play with too much energy at both ends of the floor and are doing too good of a job of exploiting a defense that many coaches considered the Pacific 10 Conference's worst during the conference season.
The other semifinal, in the South Regional in Memphis, is a lot tighter, although Oklahoma is almost to extend its lead to 10 points late in the first half if the best player in college hoops, Blake Griffin, converts this free throw attempt.
