Transylvania University is playing the University of Kentucky in basketball. The Battle on Broadway, it's being called as these two hometown teams face each other.
Important Facts: Transylvania has played UK before. In fact, the record is tied between the two schools, 7-7.
This is the first game in 100 years.
Are the Mathews going to be there? You betcha! Although poor Marc had to go to New Orleans for a conference. He was really bummed but he's working through his grief by hosting a "watch" party at a bar down there. I'm taking my dad and both of the kids are taking friends. I suspect that Transy will have more fans in Rupp Arena than any other visiting team has ever had playing UK!
I'm so excited right now, I just went home and put on my Transy T-shirt in the middle of writing this blogpost!
Go Pioneers!!!
