I apologize for the extreme lack of coverage heading into this game, but my weekend has been quite loaded and I'm beginning the trek to Dayton at a ridiculous hour.

Still, I'm willing to serve up a breathtaking 65-word preview: Siena will run. Louisville will also run. Ubiles, Hasbrouck and Franklin are all guys who could play anywhere. The Cards will force at least 16 turnovers, scoring points off of those turnovers is the bigger issue. U of L should again have much more bounce in the last five minutes of both halves. This will be an extremely entertaining game for outsiders to take in.
