UofL/UK Gameday is near

4:02 PM Fri, Aug 22, 2008 |

With the annual UofL vs UK football game coming up in about a week, the debates can begin over many things.

Who will win? Who needs the win more? How will the game look; good football or bad football? Which website will re-surface,FireKragthorpe or FireBrooks?

I, for one, am honestly excited about this game. Both teams have a number of "unknowns", which could affect the game in a huge way.

I believe the Cards are in a little better shape than the Cats. I know that isn't saying much, but at least Hunter Cantwell has game experience and has proven that he can win on the college level. (See 2006 vs. Kansas St. 24-6 Win/ 18-26 1 TD-1 INT/ 97-yd TD Drive)

The matchup that is the most intriguing to me will be UK quarterback Mike Hartline's arm vs. the UofL DB's. If the Cards secondary can't defend the deep ball of the first-time starter, it will look alot like last year with 40+ yd TD passes raining in PJCS.

All things considered, my pick is UofL 24 UK 17.

Let me know what you think.
