WATCH: Louisville fans on the state of the program, Kentucky rivalry

The Kentucky vs. Louisville game just feels different this year. The Cards are a shell of their former selves, with a 5-6 record this season, 9-36 in the Kenny Payne era. Louisville is a double-digit underdog tonight in the Yum Center, which will mostly be filled with Kentucky fans, a sad sight for the once proud program.

Like most Louisville residents, KSR videographer Steven Peake has friends and family members on both sides of the rivalry. He interviewed them to see how they were feeling heading into tonight’s game. Louisville radio hosts Mike Rutherford and Nick Coffey also shared their thoughts on Kenny Payne, tonight’s game, and what lies ahead.

Is the rivalry as fun when Louisville is this bad? Will you feel any pity for the Cards tonight if the game goes as we expect, or will you just get drunk off their tears?
