The game today should be another exciting match between two proud and very-achieving programs. There has been no shortage of thrills in our last 6-8 years. I look at the mutual move to the ACC as a really killer extension of great basketball, played at the highest level between two respectful and truly competitive programs.
But there's a little more as well. Whereas, owing to our own past, Cincinnati, Marquette, even Memphis were Louisville's biggest rivals based on sheer competitive values, geography and Conferences, I see you guys as being our primary rivals among the admittedly tall trees of the ACC. Your history with Georgetown, UConn, the Johnnies and all that is tremendous, I'm wondering if you guys aren't feeling similarly.
To me, the magic of Pitt has been less than compelling. We may have our own take on that because I am really not sure you guys don't feel differently. After all, you've been beating heads for far longer. And it;s not that I detest or don't respect Pitt. I just don't feel the same energy.
Anyway, here's to another chapter today in what I believe can become one of America's maybe most unlikely but truly interesting rivalries. We're traveling together in a new adventure where I have to suspect we can jot down some names and kick some knees together. I have the very best feelings for your program in the strictest Platonic sense, lol. Of course, I always want to beat your butts, too, but you knew that.
