Look at that - the Notre Dame basketball team has more losses than the Notre Dame football team. What is this world coming to?

The Cats face off with the Fightin' Irish Thursday in the SEC-Big East Invitational for the 2nd time in 3 years. Those folks looking to compare the current UK squad to the team of 2010-11 have a superficial data point to use.

Tentative Upcoming GOG Schedule (to help you plan your GOGness):

GOG #5: Baylor (men) and Louisville (women)

Special Note: I have something new planned for a bonus question on GOG #5. You will be given the chance to "draft" a Wildcat player - male or female - and receive points based on their production (details will be in the GOG). Because this is a draft each player may only be selected 1 time: it's a first come-first serve situation. Thus, the earlier you get your answers in the more options you will have to choose from. The GOG should be posted Friday morning, probably around 11 AM or so.

The Preseason GOG has information about question types and some handy links to use for reference.

GOG #03 has been scored. Congrats to GoLightning for the win!
