[edit] Merge from Battle for the Bluegrass and Governor's Cup (Battle for the Bluegrass)

Seems to me we should just have one article that covers both the football and basketball rivalries. Acdixon 16:00, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

I agree. Oren0 21:15, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wildcati Cardinalinian Conflict...

I have lived in the Lexington, KY area my entire life and have been a Kentucky fan for much of it. I have NEVER heard of the UK-UofL rivalry referred to as "The Wildcati Cardinalinian Conflict"...

[edit] Cleanup

As an outsider, the abbreviations are confusing. If the rivalry is Kentucky versus Louisville as the scoreboards show, how about using Kentucky and Louisville throughout the article, rather than UK and UofL?

The background section can be shortened allowing each school article to reveal their detailed history. Focus on the rivalry.

I edited sentences in the History section: more needed. Stevecalloway 02:38, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

-- This is irrelevant. If you cannot determine that Louisville is UofL and Kentucky is UK than you should not be editing any articles. -- David3164

[edit] Football graph needs updating

The graph for the football series needs to be updated to include the 2007 game. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.224.111.219 (talk) 19:23, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

The above was removed because it is now inaccurate and out of date. Please add an updated graph to the page! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.224.111.244 (talk) 03:58, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citations needed

I came across this article today and saw major areas that need citations: for example, you can't just say that Tubby Smith attracted African American fans to the University of Kentucky because he's black. Also, I've never heard of Rick Pitino being called "Benerick" - certainly not by the professionals in the local media; and as this is harmful/rude AND uncited, it's gone. If you want to put it back in, put a link to your legitimate source. Portia1780 (talk) 01:55, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
