Kentucky Wildcats vs. Louisville Cardinals, 7 p.m., ESPNU
There's no use in trying to convince you that this is going to be a quality game, because odds are that it won't be. We all know the dismal state of the Wildcats offense, which now ranks 110th in the country in terms of total yardage. After playing Western Kentucky and Central Michigan.
You might not be aware of just how awful Louisville is. That's because you have might have somehow missed Louisville becoming the first team from a BCS league to lose in FIU in that program's history. At that point, the stats don't really matter -- you're a terrible football team no matter what the numbers say.
So, yeah, it's going to be a sloppy game. But at least Kentucky has defeated its Sun Belt cupcakes, which is better than having lost to them. And that should be enough to win an ugly game, one that will only matter to the fans of two teams facing a long season.
Kentucky 17, Louisville 14
