Louisville, KY - Chris Jones paced five Louisville players in double figures with 18 points as the seventh-ranked Cardinals posted an 85-67 victory over Marshall at the KFC Yum! Center. David Cone Jersey . Terry Rozier added 17 points and Wayne Blackshear had 16 for Louisville (3-0), which overcame a slow start and a troublesome shooting effort to prevail. The Cardinals hit on just 38.6 percent of their field goal attempts and went 3-of-22 from 3-point range, but forced 21 Marshall turnovers that were converted into 24 points. Montrezl Harrell contributed 12 points to the win, with Chinanu Onuaku recording a double-double of 10 points and 11 rebounds for Louisville. Marshall (3-1), which had won its first three games -- albeit against far lesser competition -- by an average of 20 points, was led by Shawn Smiths 16 points and an impressive 15-point, 18-rebound, eight-assist effort from Ryan Taylor. Louisvilles shooting woes enabled the Thundering Herd to hang around through much of the first half, with Marshall owning a slim 20-18 edge following DeVince Boykins slam with 8:35 remaining in the opening period. The Cardinals then began to assume control, putting forth an 11-0 run that featured three dunks. Cheikh Sane converted a 3-point play to temporarily give Marshall some momentum, but Louisville answered with eight consecutive points to claim a 37-23 lead with three minutes to go in the half. Blackshear hit two free throws in the final minute to put Louisville up 41-27 at the break, with 14 of those points coming off 14 Marshall turnovers. Louisville kept up its defensive effectiveness in the second half to make sure the Herd never threatened after the intermission. Marshall continued to struggle making shots, and the Cardinals effectively put the game away with an 11-2 run that was capped by a Jones 3-pointer, which staked Louisville to a commanding 58-36 lead with 13 minutes left. The Cardinals maintained a comfortable differential the rest of the way, with Marshall never cutting the deficit under 13 points.

AFC Wimbledon v Portsmouth, Monday, Sky Sports 1 HD, 12.45pmI cant wait to watch this one, and Ill think there will be goals. Neal Ardley is doing a brilliant job at Wimbledon, and theyve got a super spirit. They are nicely placed at the moment, four points off the play-offs, and they could do with beating Pompey to keep things going, but I dont think they will. Kingsmeadow is a tough place to go, and I think Portsmouth will be happy with a draw. OLLIE PREDICTS: 1-1 (Sky Bet odds 9/2)Millwall v Burton Albion, Monday, Sky Sports 1 HD, 7.45pmBurton could be about to have a funny little blip. When youre that clear at the top, everybody else raises their game. Millwall have lots of goalscorers, led by Lee Gregory at the minute with 16 goals, but dont forget Steve Morison with 14, and in stark comparison, Burtons top scorers have eight each in Lucas Akins and Mark Duffy.They must have a right good team spirit there, but I think theyll come a cropper at The Den. Millwall will be smarting after losing to Bradford because that was a right kick in the doobies, but they will bounce back. OLLIE PREDICTS: 2-1 (Sky Bet odds 17/2)Bury v Gillingham, Monday, 3pm - (Super 6 fixture)Gillingham should have too much for Bury, and I think theyll sneak a result. Both teams have a few players out injured but I fancy Gillingham to get the win. Rory Donnelly is having a brilliant season, I think hell get on the scoresheet at Gigg Lane. Highlights from Blackpools 1-1 draw with Bury in League One OLLIE PREDICTS: 0-2 (Sky Bet odds 12/1)Crewe v Bradford, Monday, 3pm - (Super 6 fixture)I can only see this going one way, and I fear for Crewe now because Bradford are on a roll after that win over Millwall. If you look at Crewes league position, theyre desperate for a win but I just dont think it will come in this game. Steven Davies is back on the goal trail for Bradford and when you get one, they come along like buses.

Nothing against Doncaster, but Im going for Blackpool. Danny Philliskirk is a very good goalscorer - his dad Tony was a real good player too - and hell start popping in the goals. Blackpool need it because its looking pretty bleak and they have to win this.Donny started the season really well and have dropped off, but if I was them I wouldnt be panicking too much. If they win their game in hand theyre out of the relegation zone, and once you get out, you can start climbing. This is a massive game for both teams, but Im going with Blackpool, and thats my heart talking rather than my head.

Oldham v Chesterfield, Monday, 3pm - (Super 6 fixture)You can raise your game against the top teams when youre down at the bottom, but Chesterfield requires a totally different mindset to Burton. Have Oldham got that in them? Lee Novak and Sylvan Ebanks-Blake have got going now, and I think this will be a really tough one for hosts. Highlights from the Pirelli Stadium as Burton faced Oldham in Sky Bet League One OLLIE PREDICTS: 0-2 (Sky Bet odds 14/1)Port Vale v Barnsley, Monday, 3pm - (Super 6 fixture)Barnsley were knocked out of the play-off places on Good Friday, so theyll be chomping at the bit here. Fake Royals Jerseys. As for Port Vale, they will still feel they can make up the difference to sixth, but they have to win this game. Unfortunately for them, Im going for a sneaky away win because when youre at home and you need to victory, the fans can put extra pressure on you, especially if you concede first.Pagey [Rob Page] has done a fantastic job at Port Vale, but Barnsley will have a little bit too much in the boots of Sam Winnall. He is having a great season and deserves another goal. Highlights of Shrewsburys 1-1 draw with Port Vale from Sky Bet League One OLLIE PREDICTS: 0-1 (Sky Bet odds 15/2)Scunthorpe v Swindon, Monday, 3pm - (Super 6 fixture)I cant separate these two, and if you look at the table, theres only three points between them. There should be goals, though, and I think Swindon will score first through striker Nicky Ajose, a wonderful young player, before they get pegged back.OLLIE PREDICTS: 1-1 (Sky Bet odds 11/2) Ollies Super 6 predictions Super 6 game Ollies tip Bury v Gillingham 0-2 Crewe v Bradford 0-2 Doncaster v Blackpool 0-1 Oldham v Chesterfield 0-2 Port Vale v Barnsley 0-1 Scunthorpe v Swindon 1-1 Wigan Athletic v Rochdale, Monday, 1.30pmWigan will keep marching on and I dont think theyll drop out of the automatic places now. Will Grigg is a great signing, and hes in top form so he could be the difference on the day. Rochdale are having a fantastic season themselves, and you look at Ian Henderson with 13 goals and the job Keith Hill as done, but Wigan at home could be too difficult. Rochdale will look at this as a chance to get one point off the play-offs, but Wigan are on the march. Highlights of Wigans 4-1 win over Swindon from Sky Bet League One OLLIE PREDICTS: 1-0 (Sky Bet odds 11/2)Plymouth Argyle v York City, Monday, 3pmPlymouths little blip will galvanise them and get them going again. They are maybe a little young and perhaps its a lack of experience because they havent done it before. But they have a brilliant strike-force and theyll come back - they are too good. York? Good God, look at them. They are almost dead and buried, Im afraid.OLLIE PREDICTS: 3-0 (Sky Bet odds 9/1)Think you can do better than Ollie? Enter your Soccer Saturday Super 6 predictions here.
