Prediction.

1st quarter:
Both teams struggle offensively. The quarter is highlighted by two big plays-one in the Cats favor, one for the Cards. The quarter ends with S-Krag's* team on top 7-3.

2nd quarter:
Still evenly-matched and fairly weak offensively. Louisville will outplay the Cats but somehow find themselves in a 10-10 deadlock at the half.

3rd quarter:
Here's where the 2 brand new Louisville coordinators become evident. Kentucky will grasp and respond to the half-time adjustments; Louisville will struggle- through no fault of the coordinators, but there are bound to be some glitches in their first game. 20-10 Kentucky leads.

4th quarter:
Rest easy, Big Blue Nation. Okay, bite your teeth and sweat a little, but the Wildcats will hang on. Sweltering heat, better depth, and quality running backs will overcome a premature prevent defense.

Kentucky 27
Louisville 20

...and if you cup your hand to your ear, and turn in the direction of Little Caesar's Stadium (shamelessly stolen from Matt Jones, but I will use it ever-after as my own), you will hear all the Boos in Boo'ville,
whose 'mouths will hang open a minute or two,
then the boos down in Boo'ville will all cry "Boo Hoo!"'


*Stupid? yes. But not any dumber than calling someone T-Will.
