"Rivalry" Records for the past decade:

Kansas 20 - K-State 4 (16.7% win)
UNC 18 - NC State 3 (14.3% win)
UK 10 - UofL 2 (16.7% win)

The numbers do not lie. This is the company Louisville is now keeping. Probably won't go over well with the fan base for much longer.
 
I believe that this Coach has shown he wants it as bad as we do. Has his in game decision making been spot on? Probably not. He had his team dialed in. I think it affected their shooting early. I can't say it affected their free throws later. I don't see a problem.
The tide will turn.
 
I understand the frustration of recent years but UofL has never dominated in this rivalry. Though the winning percentage has been better in other decades it was still heavily in their favor.

Cards have never beaten them more than two in a row IIRC.

Unfortunately, Crum and Pitino both had losing records against UK and they are both Hall of Famers. CCM isn't on their level at this time so I'm not sure if he can turn the tide or not. The disconcerting thing is it's been this way for about the entirety of the rivalry. Hope it will change.

Actually it’s UK 11 UL 10
