Late, but this is what happens when you don’t watch the game until 3 am and then have to try and function the rest of the day as if you still got a normal day of sleep. You just try to get through and try not to think too much.
There’s a lot that could be argued was a positive from the game. The team fought back hard on the road. They were so close to breaking Louisville’s spirit in the final couple minutes. Pitt got a better handle on the press. Adams and Taylor were strong offensively on rebounds and finishing.
But, no one really cares about that. The thing that makes this loss so tough is the volume of “ifs.” From the overarching theme to the individual moments. This game was loaded with the “what if” and “if only” scenarios where Pitt ends up on the winning end.
