You love to see the classic "blue blood" rivalries throughout college basketball like UNC-Duke, Louisville-Kentucky, Indiana-Purdue and Indiana-Kentucky. Now we're going to have UCLA-Kentucky for a fourth straight year thanks to the basketball gods.

Without these pre-conference games and tournaments we may never have gotten this matchup again. It's unlikely each coach would have wanted to do another home-and-home since the schools are so far from each other and finding a neutral site would have proved difficult. However, we have CBS Sports to thank for something to look forward to next year.
