U6 to be good again😂🤣😂👇👇👇👎👎👎Never, ever, never!! Guess you are too young to understand. They would be in seventh heaven right now if the roles were reversed.
Louisville being bad doesn't benefit Kentucky. I'd actually argue it hurts our brand & lowers standards. We need a villain.
On a larger view, the idea that the state should crush the city via backroom politics / legislation and prevent growth out of fear of competition is ass backwards and one reason our state lags economically. Taking the counter view, embracing competition, is what drives success.
Kentucky has not made sudden gains at all since Louisville has dived. It literally has not benefitted the program one iota. Has only hurt the program.
Reread your own post again and you'll change your mind! If roles were reversed they'd be the same way again! Why would you want that?
U6 sports has nothing to do with Kentucky economically. It's because for too long people voted wrong.
Since the. state had to rescue their sorry arses suppose they be called UKL.
UK has not been affected one iota by the Ville for sure negative or positive. You would have to tell me how we have lost anything by them being in the crapper
This x10000. They would absolutely be dancing on our graves. The digs from their fans and media would be sinister.
You know the UL hate is kinda weird. I've never even considered them a rival. They're a mid-major school that lucked into two great hires in Crum and Pitino who they only got because he wanted to coach back in KY. They lucked into the ACC from their midmajor american conference. They're gonna go back to being what they always were when the ACC blows up. Somewhere back in the american conference.
Ok, this is just silly. Not gonna defend them for a second but to say a school “lucked” into two hall of fame coaches is nonsense. I guess we lucked into Rupp, Hall, Pitino and Cal.
I mean, hate them in any/every way you choose, but this take is just lame.
Ok they got Crum. Cool, but that should've been it. Pitino should have never went there lol. How can you say that's not luck? They only got him because Kentucky wouldn't hire him back.
I would prefer to play IU rather than Louisville in both fb & bb.
I'm fine with that.... I'm a bit biased cause I live in NKY but I've been craving for a UC series one day.
Starting to look like that more and more isn't it?
Back to back failed coaching hires and I'm not sure the 3rd time is the charm.
If they get left out of this new conference realignment which they will it's over for them.
I’d rather not even play them if they are that garbage. Shit is literally depressing, even as a UK fan.
I loved the class they showed when they dumped Denny and hired Rick.
Hot take .We have other exciting games. I want U6 to remain horrible.
Sort of good.
Good enough that they have hope each year on game day, just before we whoop their ass again.
Good enough that it is considered a real rivalry game, outside the state of KY.
Good enough that our game/win vs them actually helps us in NET which helps us come seeding time.

A previous KY Governor did have a role in the ouster of the previous UL administration. I don't know who voted for who. Don't care.
Im not defending Jurich either to be totally clear. I thought he was just as corrupt.
If you remember this, and the sh!t that came our way for years afterwards, you will never want to see Louisville good again. They are dog sh!t on the bottom of our shoes and nothing more.
I have zero interest in playing UofL in football or basketball. Very good chance next year will be the last time the football series is played. Happy if they drop basketball as well. I have never considered them a rival. For those who can remember the only time we ever played the Cards was because we met in the NCAA tournament, there was a level of excitement that the regular season doesn't match. It was special because it was rare. The regular season games have pretty much been dominated by Kentucky, and more often than not, it is a blowout.
Kansas, UNC and IU were our big OOC games for as long as I can remember. Make those games happen every year. I wouldn't even mind a revival of the Notre Dame game which got lumped into the Big 4 classic, and then we just stopped playing them. UofL isn't a game I care about, and never really have. It's just one more game on the schedule that now gets played at 6:00 on a Tuesday. No one is seeing it as a marquee matchup so why keep playing it?

I HATE UL! I went to UK undergrad, but to UL for my Master’s Degree. I truly learned NOTHING because their professors were horrible and the students were nasty when they learned I went to UK for undergrad.
I hope UL NEVER wins another game!

I don’t care about UL’s success or the rivalry (I live in Louisville, so the more we beat them the better), but one thing I do hate is that this game has gotten to the point where UK has nothing to gain, yet everything to lose. They are like 200 in the NET for 2 years in a row, Quad 3/4 win/loss for us, Quad 1 for them. In no “rivalry” should that be the case.
I agree. The football and basketball is just better when they're worth a damn and we actually have a chance to lose. It's nice to steamroll them year after year but it's not good for the rivalry.
