The Louisville men's basketball team is off to a flawless start in 2016-17. The Cards have decimated their first two opponents, are ranked in the nation's top 12, and have legitimate Final Four and national championship aspirations.

And no one seems to care.

All right, that might be a little over-the-top, but the point stands that this is likely the least amount of attention that a really good Cardinal basketball team has received in the history of UofL athletics.

The reason is fairly straightforward. UofL's other flagship sport, football, is in the middle of the most exciting season that it has ever enjoyed, a season that has captivated Cardinal fans in a way some thought would never happen.
