| Indianapolis, IN (Sports Network) - The eight-ranked Louisville Cardinals face a tough road test this afternoon as they take on the Butler Bulldogs at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Rick Pitino's Cardinals were expected to handle their first two opponents rather easily, and that was indeed the case. After a 35-point romp over Tennessee-Martin in the season opener, Louisville bested Lamar by a 68-48 final last Sunday, the most recent outing for the squad. The Big East Conference is loaded on |

It was a match that saw the champion Connecticut Huskies shoot a dismal 34.5- percent from the field and the runner-up Butler Bulldogs firing blanks with their even-more abysmal 18.8-percent shooting. And despite neither team finding any sort of offensive rhythm, the ending proved fitting to be a microcosm of an unpredictable 2011 campaign. This was a season that didn't fea |

| Houston, TX (Sports Network) - The Butler Bulldogs had the experience, but more importantly the size, to overcome the pesky VCU Rams in the Final Four, 70-62, behind Shelvin Mack's 24 points and a dominant showing down low. The NCAA Tournament's version of the glass slipper was bound to fit one of these mid-major Cinderella programs, and Mack made sure it was Butler for a second straight year, hitting 8-of-11 from the floor and 5-of-6 from behind the arc.
