It's the biggest rivalry in college basketball; it's also all about the Bluegrass. We're sitting in on Rick Pitino's press conference right now and he just said he really wants to beat John Calipari and the Wildcats. That, we already knew. BUT, he also said, "If we can't bring it back, I hope they do." Pitino said a National Championship will be good for the state of Kentucky. Of course, he wants his team to win it, but if that can't happen, he wants to see UK raise the banner. Is he trying to win us over again??
