2012 Final Four Game Time, TV Schedule, Odds: Kentucky Vs. Louisville

The Kentucky Wildcats and Louisville Cardinals meet in the Final Four for the first time on Saturday night during the first national semifinal of the 2012 NCAA Tournament.

The rivalry has always been fierce, but has only grown since Rick Pitino, who led Kentucky to three Final Four appearances and one national championship, took over at Louisville and transformed the Cardinals into a true national contender.
