Both teams are coming off fairly close games over teams they perhaps should've beaten by a wider margin. New Mexico beat Long Beach State 75-68 while Louisville beat Davidson 69-62. This game between two top 5 teams should be equally close all the way down to the wire.
Here's more on this game from ESPN:
It's been an up and down year for Louisville, which rose to No. 4 in the rankings in December before tumbling with five losses in seven games. The Cardinals lost three of four heading into the conference tournament.
But it appeared that something clicked when Louisville then won four straight games in four straight nights, capped by a 50-44 victory over Cincinnati in the league championship game.
New Mexico (28-6), which knocked off UNLV and San Diego State to win the Mountain West tournament, has won six straight and 13 of 15 going into the game against the Cardinals at Portland's Rose Garden. The Lobos defeated Long Beach State 75-88 in their opening round.
The winner of this game will go on to face the winner of the matchup between the Michigan State Spartans and St. Louis Billikens in the Sweet Sixteen for the opportunity to obtain a coveted spot in the Elite Eight.
