Losing to UofL in Rupp would be

You just busted the myth that you’re a UK fan.

Nah we can’t lose to these bums ever.

Had a lump in my throat after UofL beat the Cats in Stokely in ‘83. Counted the days on the calendar until they played again the next season, and watched that game on a little portable TV with a single rabbit ear while riding on a dog to a road game. What’s the point of playing if the series isn’t competitive?

The point is domination of the line beards. Humiliation for the chicken heads, and despair for the tooth beaks.

UK is 14-2 over the last 16 match ups. UL could win, and they will win again and when it happens UL fans will claim they are back and have the top program. Reality is, the gap between UK and UL is now larger than the gap between UL and WKU.

That’s on them to get better. For the past 5 years we have definitely not been at our best, so they have had their chance. Anyone believing that losing to make a one game rivalry better is a good idea is ridiculous and definitely not a Wildcat fan.

 

[BBNinSC]

I hate Louisville as much as anyone, but it helps the rivalry when they are good. I believe they have hired a great coach in Pat Kelsey.

This is a 1000 times worse than my Duke take

To me the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s were a golden era of college basketball. One of the contributing factors to that was for the most part UK, IU and UofL were all really strong programs during that time frame. I don’t consider NCAA championships by Virginia, UConn or Villanova to be a golden era. To me, it represents the exact opposite.

A really, really good UK basketball season involves maybe 3 or 4 losses along the way. I choose not to live in the fairytale world of UK going undefeated all the way to a national championship title. Some do, I don’t. And if I had any say in to whom those losses would be (which I don’t) it would be great if every other year or so one of those very few losses be to IU or UofL. Why?! How can you utter such treasonous words?! Because it stokes the fire of a good, healthy rivalry, the kind where you sit in your neighbor’s garage in August sipping on a beer, talking junk about how UK is going to extract their revenge in December. That’s why. ☮️

No, not even close. Your stuff was stoopid 😜

 

[Lempface]

What is this insanity? Yes, rivalries are better when competitive but no side of a rivalry should ever wish to lose to make it competitive. You squash the opponent repeatedly until there is no rivalry left.

wtelf?

Did you wake up and decide spontaneously to say the stupidest thing anyone has ever said on here (and that's saying a lot) or did you sleep on it first?

 

[chroix]

Screw that. The rivalry is better when they are really good and we stomp them out. The rivalry is better when we steal their fans hearts. The rivalry is better when we take away all of their hope. Us winning is the goal. Every single time. Not sure what the hell OP is smoking but homie needs to upgrade.

 

[4UK4Life]

I wish it really was April already cause this is a fool’s take

 

[KYFOSSIL]

No he panicked, you actually calmly thought this stupid shit up

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

No, not even close. Your stuff was stoopid 😜

I think you beat me. Saying you hope your rival wins to make them feel better is insanity.

 

[Rockfly78]

The rivalry is better when we break it off in their ass and they have hookers and FBI stings

 

[KAB Cats]

Some thoughts you should keep in your head OP

 

[MegaBlue05]

I could GAF less about a competitive rivalry. I want to beat them annually to the point they request to drop the game from the schedule.

 

[westerncat]

No true fan would EVER think of losing to UL. We should beat those dirty birds every time we play them.

Should not have lost 2 games. Who cares if the dirty birds are ever relevant. I draw the line at the football beatdown.

 

[wardlow]

If UL could make it competitive without winning that would be great. I don’t think they can though.

 

[crestcat]

Its a rivalry we didn’t want or need. If it was cancelled today I would mot miss it.

I don't care if that rivalry goes away. Not worth a loss anyway.

I'd rather replace that game with an annual H&A game vs Duke or UNC.

 

[BradleyCrawford08]

 

[WeWant9]

Yeah, lets hope UK drops a game to impact seeding and location to make ul feel good about the rivalry. Hot take

 

[jedwar]

Not only do I hope we beat UL every time, I hope they lose every game they play unless it benefits us.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

I can’t understand any true UK fan saying they want to lose to UL; or even for it to be competitive. Doesn’t compute in my brain. I want them to suck forever, and I want to beat them by 100 every time we play. I want them to suck, forever. I want them to be a laughing stock, forever. Seriously. I hate that program. I hate that program with all of my might.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

I hate UL with the intensity of a white-hot star, and we have this guy over here saying we should start letting them win?

What the literal EFF?

 

[flacat22]

I'm not gonna pile on but, damn, you need your mouth washed out with soap for even thinking of such a dumb thing.

I live in Louisville... trust me.. The fans here are unbearable. They act like they just beat Georgia in football.

NO THANKS...
