Our beloved Kentucky basketball team plays host to arch-rival Louisville today in the friendly confines of Rupp Arena.

The Kentucky basketball team is coming off a very disappointing loss to UCLA in New Orleans last week, which means UK needs a quality non-conference win. There are only two opportunities left, today versus Louisville and later in January at West Virginia.
