With Kentucky and Louisville shaping up as the biggest story at the Final Four, we thought we’d give that game its own set of headlines today. Here goes…

1. Kentucky-Louisville is a dream matchup for Bluegrass State residents.

2. CBS’ Clark Kellogg says: “When you talk about Louisville and Kentucky playing, that goes to the stratosphere of intensity and history and tradition… This is way off the charts.”

3. Get ready for a week’s worth of pregame build-up.

4. While the media fuels up the hype machine, UK’s players will continue to enjoy the ride.

5. The roles have reversed for John Calipari and Rick Pitino (who faced each other in the 1996 Final Four with Pitino at UK and Calipari at UMass).

6. The Wildcats set up the matchup with a blowout win over Baylor…

7. And big-game Michael Kidd-Gilchrist came up large again for UK.
