Kentucky and Louisville have met 53 times and Kentucky leads 37-16, including two NCAA Tournament games. Kentucky won last year’s game 78-70 at Rupp. As for the Cincinnati game, Mack had similar sentiments. “We were supposed to play our second game of the season against those guys at their place,” Mack said. “Talking to John Brannen, how fair is it for us to play their home game in front of literally no fans and then have him return the game?” Louisville, meantime, is looking to host a non-conference bubble Nov. 25-Dec. 5. Kentucky’s schedule is fluid. They are supposed to play in the Champions Classic featuring Kentucky, Kansas, Michigan State and Duke sometime between Dec. 1-5 in Orlando. The Wildcats will face Georgia Tech Dec. 6 in Atlanta in an ESPN game, a source said. That game was originally slated for Nov. 27. And they are looking to host an MTE potentially featuring Richmond, Detroit-Mercy and Hartford Nov. 27.NEW: I asked Louisville head coach Chris Mack if the Cardinals will face Kentucky this season.
