Louisville and Kentucky get into a Scuffle at Rupp Arena"},"content":{"rendered":"

There\u2019s never a dull moment in the Battle of the Bluegrass. A middle finger<\/a> in the tunnel was just an appetizer of what was to come in the second half of Saturday\u2019s game between Kentucky and Louisville at Rupp Arena. <\/p>\n

Kentucky had a seven-point lead when there was a loose ball near the Louisville bench. Brandon Garrison<\/a><\/strong> did not dive on the floor, but the reserve Kentucky center did get dinged for a personal foul when he tried to rip the ball from the Cards\u2019 hands. That\u2019s when things got chippy.<\/p>\n

Garrison was surrounded by Louisville players on the bench. Mark Pope hustled over to prevent the situation from escalating. It was rivalry basketball at its best. <\/p>\n

After spending some time checking out the replay, officials ultimate decided to refrain from excessive punishment. Boys will be boys. Garrison was issued a common foul and they played on.<\/p>\n

They kept playing and Kentucky kept winning. The Wildcats took down the Cardinals at Rupp Arena, a place where Louisville hasn\u2019t won since 2008.<\/p>\n

Things got a little stale while Kentucky dominated the hapless Kenny Payne-led Cardinals. The contentious moment near the sideline was a pleasant reminder that the rivalry is all the way back.<\/p>\n
