The game, essentially the length of two full length games, was the longest regular season clash in Big East history. Notre Dame ended up getting the best of Louisville, winning 105-101.

Europol Found Over 680 Soccer Games May Have Been Fixed Since 2008

A report from Europe's police (I assume that's what Europol is) found that almost 700 soccer games had 'suspicious' qualities, suggesting that the soccer matches may have been fixed.
