1. Kentucky Fans Have To Respect This Louisville Team That Beat The Cats

This last month has been a brutal one, since the football team couldn’t extend their winning streak over Kentucky. That last minute field-goal by the Cats last month will forever be a bragging point of Kentucky fans, but at least we don’t have to hear about this team anymore right?

It has been terrible and exhausting to watch the Louisville basketball team play Kentucky so close over the years, but only to lose in the final minutes. I’m sure most of us were wondering if they would ever beat a John Calipari team ever again.

Not to mention, listening to UK fans bash on the Cards hasn’t been fun either.

Enjoy this win Louisville basketball fans, you deserve it because the streak is finally over.
