Louisville is set to travel to Kentucky for the annual rivalry showdown, and are comfortable favorites despite leaving home. Even still, it’s a safe bet the Governor’s Cup will be hotly contested.

The Cardinals opened up as a 2.5-point favorite over the Wildcats, according to FanDuel. The over/under is set at 49.5. The money line for Louisville is -128 and +106 for Kentucky.

The biggest question might be who Kentucky plays at quarterback, as the Wildcats turned to Cutter Boley in the second half of a loss to Texas after starting Brock Vandagriff.

It’s a move that head coach Mark Stoops said he hoped would “provide us a spark” against the Longhorns.

Boley went 10-for-18 for 160 yards and an interception after Vandagriff went 3-for-7 for 51 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Neither quarterback had much success rushing.

Vandagriff has started every game for Kentucky this season after transferring from Georgia, and Stoops said earlier this week that would again be the case against Texas. He entered Week 13 with 1,542 passing yards and nine touchdowns, along with seven interceptions.

Boley arrived on campus this year as a four-star prospect out of nearby Lexington Christian Academy, where he was a four-star prospect. He was the No. 389 overall player and No. 25-ranked quarterback from the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Before Saturday, Boley logged two appearances for Kentucky. In that time, he completed 10-of-20 passes for 130 yards and two touchdowns while adding 21 rushing yards on his two carries.

Louisville comes into Saturday on much better terms, having rolled Pitt in a blowout and already bowl-eligible for the 2024 season. But a rivalry win to round it out would certainly be a nice cherry on top of the regular season.
