Hey, it’s Governor’s Cup week, but it’s not the Kentucky-Louisville football week we once expected.
For one thing, Scott Satterfield is still here. The Louisville coach was supposed to be gone by now, remember. After the Cardinals’ 34-33 loss at Boston College on Oct. 1, Satterfield was destined to be sitting on a beach somewhere counting his buyout.
Meanwhile, Kentucky was supposed to be preparing for the SEC championship game or a major bowl game in a tropical setting. Picked to finish second in the SEC East, led by a projected high NFL Draft pick at quarterback in Will Levis, this was to be another year Mark Stoops’ program would take another step forward.
