Lets face it, UT has owned the Memphis matchup for about 10 years now. Memphis as a city and Memphis fans in general are just mad that they are the ugly stepchildren that the state of TN wishes it didn't have to claim. Now go crawl back to your "urban" ****hole of a town and root for your grade A thugs you call players and your head coach who looks like Screech from Saved by the Bell.

you know that UT is .500 in the past 10 years against Memphis, right?

Are there some imaginary games that the UT fanbase is counting?

West Virginia?

Marquette?

There are only 2, possibly 3, teams on that list that Louisville will be playing yearly after 2013 and it ain't Marquette and West Virginny. Hell, they don't even play WV THIS season.

Memphis is a pure hate thing for me. I wouldn’t do them the honor of calling them a rival; they have nothing that we need. Sure, I’d hate to see the Cards lose to them. I really hated seeing us lose to Western Carolina, but that doesn’t make them a top rival! Memphis fans may consider Louisville their biggest rivals, but that’s because they have to respect us. I don’t respect Memphis and I don’t consider them our rivals.

Self-defeating logic there. Memphis and Louisville went a while without playing. Guess they aren't that big of rivals.

Typing it out doesn't make it true. Memphis and Louisville have played basketball 86 times.

But if you want to use that logic, I guess congratulations on being Louisville's 3rd biggest rival

Didn't you just concede that they weren't? Which side of the fence are you taking here, Ball?

I'm not taking any side. Just stating the facts.

That ranking was based on a Louisville fan poll taken.

If you want to guess as to who the biggest rivals will be going forward, then I guess it wouldn't be unrealistic to think Memphis would be no better than 3rd. Surely Louisville will develop a rivalry with one of the teams in their new conference. UConn and Syracuse are nipping on their heels.

Who took this poll, you?

What's wrong with being the third biggest rival?

Is UT better than 3rd on anyone's rival lists?

UT is Vandy's top rival for sure. We're Kentucky's 2nd biggest rivalry according to Nation of Blue.

I'd say Florida, Georgia, USC, and Alabama probably would have UT in their top 3.

6. Pitt-Villanova
7. Kansas-Missouri
8. Indiana-Purdue

Congrats on being Vandy's top rival. I'm sure they're chomping at the bit for UT to form a Chess Team.

So what, they're not our top rival like you all purport Louisville to be. The truth is, most Louisville fans could give a **** about Memphis. It's more one-sided than Pastner thinks the Memphis-UT rivalry is. That is why Pastner looks like such a twit.
