friday night game

Last season, the Cards emerged victorious with a resounding 56-28 win at L&N Stadium. Louisville had an explosive start to the game, scoring an impressive 42 points in the first half. This high-scoring output equaled their highest single-game score of the entire 2023 season. It’s worth noting that the Cardinals also put up 56 points against Murray State during their home opener that same year.

In their last game before the holiday break, Kentucky dominated Louisville with a 95-76 win at the KFC Yum! Center. Super senior Antonio Reeves led the charge with an impressive 30-point performance. Freshman Reed Sheppard also had a standout game, contributing 11 points and 11 assists. Sheppard’s outstanding performance earned him the title of Southeastern Conference Freshman of the Week for the second consecutive time.

In an exciting Friday night game, the No. 16 Kentucky Wildcats faced a tough challenge from Texas A&M-Commerce. Unlike their dominant win over New Mexico State earlier in the week, the Cats had to overcome a slow start and rally back for a hard-fought victory.
