Some facts about the dream game (UK vs. U of L)

[Tim_T]

Just some interesting tidbits about the game Saturday:

The last 3 times UK faced Louisville while UK was in the top 5, Louisville won (12-27-97 UK #3, 12-26-98 UK#4 and 12-27-2003 UK #1) 2 of those games in Rupp.

Also, the last 3 UK coaches have lost their first game to Louisville in Rupp.

UofL has never beaten UK 3 times in a row.

UK has never swept the FB and BB games.

Interesting indeed...cool facts...

A lot of things are changing with UK basketball, and this Saturday will be some more changes.

UK will sweep the FB and BB match-up, a coach will not lose his first game versus Louisville in Rupp, etc, etc, etc. LOL

In all seriousness, it's going to be a good game. Win, lose, or draw, I can't wait!

The three sweep has been done, but not by the Cats.

i figured it had been done before, just wanted to bring it to the attention of some that didnt know that the cats might get it done this year.

Actually Skeeter, I am not sure about the womens game, but since the Lady Cards usually win I just ass/u/med that it has happened. I do know that the sweep of the football/basketball game only happened once and Louisville pulled it off.

None of this really has any bearing on the outcome of this weekend's game, but fun to talk about nonetheless!

it is a fun topic, but i have to know what ASS/U/MED is
