No. 12 Kentucky hosts rival No. 16 Louisville at Rupp Arena

Louisville’s bench goes deep in terms of who can score for them. Ulis, who had 21 points, eight assists and just one turnover in 40 minutes, was 7-of-12, including 4-of-7 from 3-point range. Despite the standout performance, Lee’s night ended in disappointment as he missed a possible game-winning 3-pointer at the buzzer. John Calipari never received any punishment for the sanctions that took place at the two schools he bolted from, nor do we hear the outcry about him being a “cheater” or “scumbag”. UK’s first six points came off second-chance opportunities, this against a U of L team ranked No. 2 nationally in rebound margin. In men’s basketball, Kentucky has now beaten Louisville four in a row, eight of nine and 11 of 14.

With the victory on Saturday, Calipari continued his dominance over Rick Pitino in the Louisville rivalry after improving 8-1 in this series. The two combined for four of the Cats’ 11 made threes, and Hawkins even poured in a career-high 13 points in the process. “(Kentucky) hit some really, really tough shots that ordinarily you would say those are the kind of shots you want them to take in that situation. Louisville fought back from 16 points down in the second half to seize momentum and almost claim the win, but Damion Lee’s step-back three missed as time expired.

“I can get a lot better”, Valentine said earlier this month.

Tyler Ulis was named the national player of the week by NBC Sports’ College Basketball Talk.

I know that many people will read that paragraph and immediately think that this a biased post about someone that I don’t like. Look below for the Kentucky Louisville game TV details and how to watch Louisville vs Kentucky free streaming online via mobile devices and more below.

Poythress led the run with seven points, including six straight early in the second half. In two games this season against top-25 opponents, Ulis has averaged 19.5 points, 7.0 assists, 2.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.0 blocks.

Without Ulis, Louisville would have won this game by 15 points, at least. I’m nearly certain that the UofL coaching staff did not plan on Hawkins beating them from behind the arc, due to his 17 percent three-point percentage.

Louisville head coach Rick Pitino handled the loss in a less-than-gracious way.

Louisville: Pitino had a 6-2 record against the Cardinals while coaching the Wildcats. The 15th-ranked Cardinals will attempt to halt their recent woes in this bitter in-state rivalry Saturday when they travel to Rupp Arena to face the 11th-ranked Wildcats. Louisville gets a stop next possession and goes for the win with their best player.
