However, Saturday\u2019s game between the No. 17 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theuconnblog.com\/\">UConn<\/a> Huskies (6-3) and No. 18 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cardchronicle.com\/\">Louisville Cardinals<\/a> (10-1) is an important one (12 p.m. ET, FOX). Both teams are evenly matched and next to each other in the rankings, and this matchup will be a good barometer of where they currently stand.  <\/p>\n<p id=\"69g5MU\">Here&#8217;s the keys to the matchup for both sides:<\/p>\n<hr class=\"p-entry-hr\" id=\"dP1kyA\">\n<h2 id=\"k6Aji8\"><strong>Protecting home-court<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"c7pslL\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-dnt=\"true\" align=\"center\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Come watch <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UConnWBB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@UConnWBB<\/a> anytime at the XL Center in December for just $10!<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/AZIeljYTcG\">https:\/\/t.co\/AZIeljYTcG<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/g5hilW4hLT\">pic.twitter.com\/g5hilW4hLT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 UConn Huskies (@UConnHuskies) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UConnHuskies\/status\/1735298654288658544?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 14, 2023<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"Dy38lR\">With this game projecting to be close, UConn will need to utilize every advantage they have\u2014starting with homecourt. The fans will be on their side; they have to use that energy to come out strong and do all the little things. Winning the 50-50 balls. Closing out on shooters. Winning the rebounding battle. <\/p>\n<p id=\"4e29zq\">The Huskies also have a great inside-outside game with Paige Bueckers and Aaliyah Edwards. Bueckers leads the team in scoring with 19.8 points and Edwards flirts with a double-double every game with 15.8 points and 7.7 rebounds. If those two are at the top of their game and the rest of their supporting cast takes care of the small details, the Huskies be in a good position to win. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"6GMM2i\"><strong>Can Olivia Cochran dominate?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"XRSKNg\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-dnt=\"true\" align=\"center\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Joined the 1,000 career point club against UK &amp; recorded a double-double against Morehead State  <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OliviaCochran_?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@OliviaCochran_<\/a> is the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PFDairy?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@PFDairy<\/a> Student-Athlete of the Week!<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/GoCards?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#GoCards<\/a> x <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LouisvilleWBB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@LouisvilleWBB<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1gXQ05BC1s\">pic.twitter.com\/1gXQ05BC1s<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Louisville Athletics (@GoCards) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GoCards\/status\/1735660983824060860?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2023<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"QnZDLi\">Someone on the Cardinals will have to offset Edwards&#8217; production. That task likely belongs to Olivia Cochran. She will have to win those rebounds and have a big offensive game to pull off the road upset. <\/p>\n<p id=\"uE0AiW\">The guard duo of Kiki Jefferson and Sydney Taylor also will be a key factor for Louisville. Both are averaging double digits in points and the Cardinals will need that firepower to keep up with the Huskies&#8217; offense. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"FdjCpr\"><strong>Closing thoughts <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p id=\"IzZAtG\">This isn&#8217;t the UConn of yore. They are no longer a giant in the basketball world\u2014they are just one of the bunch. Yes, they can still be great and will undoubtedly be in the mix for a title. But that&#8217;s it. They are not frontrunners anymore. Louisville is just as good. If the Cardinals play their best, they can win. If I&#8217;m wrong and UConn is a top-five team in the country, then Friday should be a dominant win for the Huskies. <\/p>\n<hr class=\"p-entry-hr\" id=\"4qQLAs\">\n<h2 id=\"5Tzl55\"><strong>Game
