It’s frigid outside, with snow on the ground in some parts of the Bluegrass, and we’re getting ready for a Kentucky vs. Louisville basketball game. Believe it or not, it’s not December. It’s November 11, Veterans’ Day and the earliest the rivalry game has ever been played; in fact, the two teams have only met once before in November, back in 1993. Early or not, the entire state is counting down to tipoff of the No. 9 Cats vs. the No. 12 Cards at the Yum Center (8:00 p.m. ET, ESPN).
Kentucky leads the all-time series vs. Louisville 40-17, and 14-10 in the city of Louisville.
