The 17th ranked Louisville baseball team dropped its season opener in Gainesville, FL against the #11 Florida Gators 6-3. The Cards play the Gators again today at 1 PM. The game can be listened to on CardsTV at uoflsports.com.

Your #7 Louisville Cardinals travel up I-71 to face the Cincinnati Bearcats tomorrow at 2 PM. The game can be seen locally on WHAS or online at ESPN360.com. Everyone offer up your predictions for the game. If anyone gets the score correctly, they will receive a $10 Lunch Pail gift card!

The Overtime Show would also like to congratulate the Louisville Men's Ice Hockey team in their 6-5 win over Xavier last night. It was their first win in about 2 years.

Also, our "buddies" down the road in Lexington play a big game against Tennessee tommorrow at 1 PM. If you all remember correctly, Tennessee is the team who forgot to play defense at the same time Jodie Meeks decided to make it rain all over Knoxville, thus resulting in a 54 point performance in Kentucky's 90-72 win over the Vols on January 13th.

Joe Lunardi's latest Bracketology is out. Your Cards are a 2-seed squaring off against Robert Morris from the Northeast Conference. The Big Ten made a big splash in this edition with 8 teams in, ahead of the ACC (7) and the Big East (7). Also, Louisville is 5th on the S-Curve, which means they are the first in line for a 1-seed if UNC, Oklahoma, UCONN, or Pitt were to falter down the stretch.
