I don't really care if we were "even matched".....We still lost to Petrino, which is what we usually do....
Seriously, it is pathetic that UK, the state school, struggles to play "evenly matched" with the city school of UL. It is so freakin' pathetic it makes me sick.
I am so tired of playing second fiddle to a city school like UL and WKU when UK should have always been the dominant football power in the state.
I am sick of the excuses every single year.

I just do not see how that UofL doesn't take a big step back this season with all of the players that they lost to graduation and early entry into the NFL. The loss of Parker alone was huge.
UK played them pretty much even on their home field and was a dropped interception by McWilson from likely beating them. I just do not think UofL will have enough of the shady transfers and JUCOs to compensate for their losses
IMO UK will beat the Cards this season. It is however a crap shoot picking the winner of the last game of the season when so much can happen in the first eleven games injuries and just plain weariness from a long schedule . IMO depth is going to be big in this game and IMO UK has more quality depth than UofL. I do know the Birdies will be in a den of win hungary Cats that are looking to defeather them and roast them on a spit.

Getting back to the topic, which is UK vs UL next season, I'm picking UK. All of lulzville's good players are gone, and they get one good player for the defensive line. Sorry, not buying that they're going to be incredible when they lose a ton of their offensive production, and even more of their defensive playmakers. They added one. For their sake, hopefully no more domestic issues or gun violence issues come up, or that could sting them pretty badly.
Add in the offensive line that UK has built, and is continuing to build out of quality players who have really big bodies, as well as a ton of very good playmakers. I just expect UK to win. The team has improved all around since the end of last season, despite losing the players that we lost.
I don't see a scenario where Louisville improves after losing as much experience and production that they lost, with only one legit replacement for a defensive end.

You "C'mon dude" and get ready for what is coming. UL was very lucky to win last year, a dropped EASY INT away from losing. UL lost a lot, UK has a lot coming back, game is at home for UK....UK may already have 6 wins by the time the two play this year, and will win by 10.
