LAS VEGAS -- Derrick Caracter just picked up his fourth foul and went to the bench with BYU holding a 67-61 lead. Louisville can't afford to be without its leading scorer for long as it's already thin up front with the injury to David Padgett. In fact, as I wrote this, Rick Pitino put him back in the game after just a few seconds on the bench.

With an attacking BYU offense, Caracter will have trouble playing effective defense down the stretch. This could be a big turning point.
