John Clay: Three in a row for UK would be 'huge'

Having witnessed so many disappointing losses during my time as a student at UK as well as a sportscaster covering the team for WKYT, I can't tell you how much I am hoping that Kentucky beats Louisville this weekend. Such a streak would not only be huge for bragging rights within the state, it would equate to some much-deserved payback for long-time suffering UK fans.
