It doesn't matter that Kentucky has beaten a #1 ranked football team. After all they have had more opportunities at playing in the SEC versus the BE which is struggling but that will all change soon. Who cares that Kentucky does have 1 National title in football to Louisville's NONE. Who cares that UK has 7 National Titles in Basketball to Louisvilles 2. Who cares if Kentucky has 417 more victories in Basketball than Louisville. Who cares if Kentucky was ranked #124 best college to attend while Louisville came in at #164, tied with West Virginia and Florida Institute of Technology. Who cares if Louisville had 6 football players with a 0.00 GPA for a semester. Do you know how hard it must have been for these 6 kids to sleep in, miss class, do terrible on exams if they took them at all and still make it to practice on-time? That shows dedication and leadership qualities, if you ask me. Bottom line is both schools are located in our great state of Kentucky. Grant it one is separated by a creek from being part of Indiana, but it is still in Kentucky neverless. We should all come together and support each team, no matter who they are playing. I propose a ban on all post related to sports in the future. This way we can talk about what really matters, which is how bad Kentucky is going to beat Louisville in Basketball this year and which small less than mid-major school will knock Louisville out of The Big Dance in the first round? Neither of these topics violate my proposed ban on sports related post because to be a sport it should be a competition and we all know Louisville is no competition. So key me hear it
GO BIG RED
GO BIG BLUE
GO BIG RED
GO BIG BLUE

UK's is more mythical than most, since really Oklahoma was the champion in the poll everybody went by back then. Of course that is the problem with college football, we vote on it instead of deciding it on the field.
