Louisville’s previously postponed ACC-Big 10 Challenge game at Wisconsin has been rescheduled for this Saturday, Dec. 19 at noon. ESPN2 will have the television coverage.
The Cards will enter the weekend with a 4-0 record and a No. 23 ranking in the latest AP top 25 poll. Wisconsin is 4-1 and ranked No. 12 in the same poll.
The Cardinals and Badgers have played just one time before, a U of L victory in 1978.
Adding to the drama here is that with 11 games played (and two cancelations unlikely to be made up) the Big 10 currently leads the annual challenge with the ACC by a count of 6-5. A Louisville victory on Saturday would earn an unlikely split for the ACC, which trailed 6-1 after the first night of play.
Clear those early Saturday afternoon plans if you had them, because the Cards are about to be back.
