They treat it like their teams Super Bowl. It is always one of the rare sell outs on each teams schedule.



I see what you're saying, but I don't see that game being different than any other rival/highly ranked opponent as far as the atmosphere.

In fact, the UK game is usually the tamest of the "big" games at TBA because of the thousand or so UK fans that are there.

I think the atmosphere at TBA has been better for Florida, Memphis, Vandy, Texas, Kansas, Ohio State, and even last season against Mizzou than I can ever remember it being for a UK game.

Last year I believe it was our 3rd highest attended game of the season.

I realize this, but Tennessee is sort of an exception to what I said because they along with Kentucky are really the only schools that regularly sell out their games
