Kentucky vs. Louisville Game Thread

Today is the day! The Kentucky Wildcats take on the Louisville Cardinals during rivalry week in Louisville at 7:00 pm EST.

It’s a later one than usual today, but that shouldn’t affect this team. The Cats have had one of the best seasons we’ve ever witnessed here at UK, and they’re not done yet.

Louisville has struggled mightily all season, firing their head coach Bobby Petrino in the process. That doesn’t mean this game is going to be easy because Louisville is always ready to play this game.

With that being said, Kentucky is clearly the better team. They need to come out aggressive and not let Louisville have any chance of gaining momentum.

If the Cats pick up the victory they’ll finish the season 9-3 for the first time in over 30 years (1984) and hopefully land in a really good bowl. Go Cats!
