The Louisville Cardinals are not very good. We all know that. Typically beating a team that is now 2-12 and flirting with falling into the bottom 25% of the KenPom rankings wouldn’t bring much excitement. Admittedly, if their uniform said Howard, North Florida, or even Bellarmine we probably don’t feel the same as we do today. However, it DOES say Louisville, and that matters. Kentucky came out and took care of business defeating the rival Cardinals 86-63 on New Year’s Eve to end 2022 with a 9-4 record. The win itself isn’t overly important, but how the Wildcats looked provided some real hope as the calendar turned to 2023.
