    UofK playing UNC first game of season
    well not really, UofK has 2 exhibition games and then they open the regular season against VMI(Virginia Military Institute), but then they play UNC at UNC, i guess they know it will be an azz whooping, that's why the next 2 games are Delaware St. and Longwood.

    Too bad Louisville can't say the same.

      the Big East might suck at football, but the basketball competition is way tougher than the SEC.

          Villanova, Pittsburgh, Notre Dame twice, West Virginia twice, UConn, and Marquette.


          Please talk to me when you break the top 25 this year, at least that way I won't have to deal with you anymore

              why would they? UL is in the best conference in America, while Kentucky plays in the lowly SEC

                lol...

                you're an idiot

                we play Louisville, UNC, IU (yes they're down right now) every year, and this year we are playing KSU and WVU in Vegas, and also Miami FL (top 15 team).

                Louisville plays scrubs besides UK every year

                  ok this year in non-conf UofL has S.Ala and WKU 2 of the top Sun belt teams, plus Ole Miss(SEC), Minnesota(big-10), UAB(Conf-USA, who knocked UofK out in the 04' big dance), UNLV.
                  UofK starts with VMI(Virginia Military Inst.), Delaware St., Longwood, Lamar, Miss. Valley, Appl. St., Tenn. St. then sprikled in there they have UNC, Kansas St., Mia FL, IU, Flor. ATL, and C. Mich.

                  in 07'-08', UofL had teams like UNLV ,BYU, Old Dominion, Mia-OH, Dayton, Purdue, Marshall, and N.Mex St.
                  what did UofK start with? Central Ark., Gardner Webb (who they lost to), Liberty, Texas Southern, and Stonybrook. yeah they played UNC, IU, UAB, Houston, and San Diego, but come on, look at that cupcake schedule to start the season.

                  lets go to 06'-07' UofL played teams like Dayton, Arizona, Ohio, St. Joes, UMass, Mia-FL, N'Eastern, and San Fran.
                  now UofK got the edge on this year, played some decent non-conf. Mia-OH, Depaul, UCLA, Memphis, UNC, IU, Santa Clara, UMass, and EKU.


                  now i can keep going back, and i can point out what schools were up or down and what players were or weren't at certain schools at the time, but this will turn into a who's pee-pee is bigger or tougher than who's chit-chat.

                  i started this thread about UofK playing UNC at the beginning of the season cause i thought it was crazy of them in their rebuilding years to play a top team so early. I think they should of scheduled more cupcakes at first and a few teams from confs like Sun Belt or ATL-10, or maybe even AECC or Big West, hell anyone besides UNC that early.

                    lol I love delusional Kentucky fans. Indiana and North Carolina are good but it doesn't make up for your shitty conference. Kansas State is on the way down, UL plays West Virginia, and Miami is a good team but NOT top 15. Fringe Top 25 team this year, but they play in the top heavy ACC

                      are you an idiot? since when can UK pick the date of a road game against a power like UNC?

                      seriously, are you not aware in non conference games home team picks the date?

                        ok azz-wipe, since i got to be a fu*kin clown. again i started this thread out of noticing UK was playing UNC so early in the season and since UK is only going into their 2nd year with Billy and are still considered to be rebuilding i thought it was odd that they would schedule UNC that early. I don't know the specifics of the contract they signed with UNC. most non-conf. teams sign a 2 game contract with a home and away game, but also they don't always have to play back-to-back years, and each team usually has a say in the time frame that the game can be played in the season.
                        maybe that was the only time UNC could fit them in , i don't know, but i'm sure UK could of had an option to not play this year if they wanted to or even make the game at a later date.

                        you're trying to make it out that UNC is such a power house that UK's hands were tied and had to play them whenever they wanted to. I'm not buying that. I think it was just bad judgment on UK for scheduling it so early, hence why i pointed out that they had 2 cupcake teams after that game scheduled.

                        now go on back and let your half-sister half lover comb your kentucky mudflap so you can be all primped for when daddy comes home to put your gimp azz back in your sling and spits on your choad before he glorifies your sisters chocolate starfish and then lets you two snowball his DNA.

                          ACC is the best conference, don't even try to argue against this. You just look stupid if you do.

                            First of all, UK and UNC have played every year since about 2000 or 2001. We've been playing yearly since that Bill Guthridge guy was coaching UNC.

                            Second of all, why are you making Kentucky jokes to me, when you're the one who lives in Kentucky and not me? I'm from Indiana pal.

                              ok, a guy who works in UK's scheduling department said the game is early because ESPN approached both schools about playing in their 24 hours of hoops madness kick-off, and since both schools are the most winning programs they decided to play. He said UK and UNC have a great relationship and if UK had declined they could of tried to get a date around the Christmas and New year holidays, but the ESPN event was hard to pass up.

                              so UK could of tried to get some experience under their belt and then played later if they wanted to, but being ESPN approaching them, they decided to play so early.
                              I understand the decision, but again, i just was pointing out when i noticed the schedule i thought it was odd to play them so early, being it wasn't a tourney on neutral ground.
                              when i started this thread a couple months ago i was not aware of the ESPN thing.
                              It makes sense to me now, but again UK's hands were not tied and forced to play UNC whenever UNC chose.
