The great Kanye West once said "I'm so appalled" and this could not the mood better for what Louisville Cardinal fans are feeling right now. No live stream available? No TV coverage, maybe in the local areas. Oh wait, there's college football, but why is are the 2013 NCAA Champions not getting any love on a national basis.

Last night, there were a gazillion games available to watch on ESPN and multiple other stations. However, since college football is still hot, those games will dominate the TV networks.

Okay, so no live stream will be available. What can die hard fans do? Check out the live scoring updates provided by ESPN Gamecast.

The NCAA Men's Basketball champions will defend their crown starting at 1 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon. They host the Charleston Cougars from the CAA. They are unranked and you better believe the Cardinals will be the heavy favorite to win this matchup and start their season off in grand fashion.

There will be no Peyton Siva running the plays and bringing up the ball, nor will Gorgui Deng sit in the paint and protect the basket. Both of these players are now pros after being drafted in the 2013 NBA Draft. However, hope is still in Louisville as they possess a number of the guys who played pivotal roles in getting the school a championship. 

Russ Smith, Kevin Ware and Luke Hancock will be the key guys returning. The new additions, six new players will wear Cardinal jerseys as freshmen; Terry Rozier (G), David Levitch (G), Akoy Agau (F), Mangok Mathiang (F-C), Dillon Avare (G) and Anton Gill (G).

Can the Cardinals repeat as champions? We will have to find out if Coach Rick Pitino is ready to get another tattoo. The Cardinals come into the new season ranked third in Men's Basketball.
