LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Louisville’s depth finally wore down Luke Harangody and Notre Dame. Terrence Williams had 24 points, 16 rebounds and eight assists as the Cardinals ran by the Fighting Irish in overtime. Freshman Samardo Samuels added 18 points, six rebounds and four blocks and Earl Clark had 15 points and 10 rebounds for Louisville (12-3, 3-0 Big East), which won its fourth straight. Harangody had 28 points and 13 rebounds but went scoreless in overtime before fouling out with 5 seconds remaining. Kyle McAlarney added 19 points for Notre Dame (12-4, 3-2), which made just one field goal over the game’s final 12 minutes. The victory gave the Cardinals their best start since joining the Big East in 2005. Up next for Louisville is No. 1 Pittsburgh on Saturday.
