2-1 so far
Going to stay with the Cards, I know the public is on them heavy, oh well, can't have it your way always, Johnson and Farley are finally crashing the boards strong and putting up the missed shots. Johnson hopefully is showing why he was 1 rebound away from being the leading rebounder ever at Oak Hill Academy before coming to Louisville (some leg problems have hampered him until now). The ability to finally hit the boards with Palacios/Johnson/Farley/Williams is such a huge lift for this team, even if they don't hit their 3's, now they can get the put backs.
I know Miss St. will be fired up here, but I think the cards will match the intensity, Dean, by winning can get back to MSG to finish out his career and give the pro scouts more to look at.
I see the Cards pulling away in the second half and winning this one by 8 or more. So once again I will take the small line.
U of L -2.5 (7)

Old Dominion +4, hard to beat a team 3 times, chance to break a home unbeaten streak. I will take a shot (2)
