UK freshman basketball player De’Aaron Fox was cheering for Louisville football last night.
Fox said on Twitter after the game that he “lowkey wanted Louisville football to win it.”
Of course, the Cardinals fell 42-36 to Clemson in Death Valley.
As expected, Fox caught a little heat for his Tweet:
@Swipathef0x You've not been #BBN long enough to know better, I guess. Rule 1. Never cheer for UL

@Swipathef0x man, your mentions are going to be classic

The loss seriously damages Louisville’s hopes of earning a spot in the BCS playoffs.
