There’s no stat that better sums up Tuesday night’s rivalry loss than this one:
- Louisville: 20 assists, 6 turnovers.
- Kentucky: 14 assists, 14 turnovers.
That’s not just a margin; that’s a message.
“The 20 (assists) to 6 (turnovers) compared to the 14 (assists) to 14 (turnovers) tells, really, the whole story of the game. There are a lot of facets to the game where it got to that, but we’re going to lose a 20–6, 14–14 game. We’re just going to lose it, and it’s a credit to Louisville for playing the game the right way.
