re: Why is the Kentucky fan base called "Big" Blue Nation? (Posted on 10/31/14 at 6:00 pm to tWildcat) Wait, What's going on here? Two fans from two fan bases who have either never won shite, or haven't won since WWII circle jerking each other because one team can't beat LSU in their dream season and the other fan representing a 5-3 (2-3 in SEC) who acts like his team is competing for an East title? Mizzou is second to Alabama in SEC wins over the last two seasons sooo........


And after all that Missouri is going to used up like a tampon during an exceptionally long period

The thread title is Why is the Kentucky fan base called "Big" Blue Nation?

Twitter followers are a pretty good metric to track fan support

Sorry You seem not to have such passion and it makes you jelly and all, but really, all this envy is just not healthy for you and reflects poorly on your fellow Tiger fans.

Nope, but you can call me The Jesus if it makes you feel better.

Nah bro. I just recognize the difference between football and basketball.

Im not surprised you went to that well though. I would too if we had a sub .500 lifetime record in football.

Evidently not!

75K follow Stoops on Twitter
52K follow Pinkel on Twitter

This is straight football to football comparison on a thread about fans, and UK still stomps MU.

Keep biting the pillow and crying yourself to sleep. Maybe someday you will matter more.

Why would I bite the pillow as the defending SEC East champions?

If you would be so kind, as you are very thorough in your research, list the years in which Kentucky has won the SEC East or has had a 10 win season in the divisional era? How about a season over .500 in SEC play?

Thanks bro.

Hey I just checked for you. The last time Kentucky went OVER .500 in SEC play was 1977. Kentucky has never won the SEC East and Im not going to bother looking at 10 win seasons and such to avoid further embarrassment.

It would be silly to argue that what Missouri did last year is better than what UK has done in the last 30 in football.
Regardless of how "the East is down", they played the games and won the division. Can't take that away from them.
I can't argue with that even if TigerFred23 is an insufferable troll.

Grits is just trolling Mizzou. He thinks he is witty, like tigernick/MS2 when it comes to basketball between Mizzou and UK. Tigernick's posts bring a cringe to most Mizzou fans here just like hopefully Grit's posts bring a cringe to yours in this situation.

Its pointless. Grits has been mad about not getting Mizzou board access two years ago and has been doing this thing ever since.





Both seem like asses when the facts expose them.

I know you think winning the east is a big deal but winning the whole SEC is where it is at, UK has done that twice, and they have a MNC so call me when the Tigers win the SEC outright and I might care.

ps, Pinkel is no Bear Bryant

You are welcome bro.

Funny a Mizzou fan would post about Ky of all teams. IIRC, there were three fans left at the Mizzou game against Bama a couple of years ago. We found out later on that two of them had actually gotten lost while they were leaving at halftime with the score 28-7 and simply gave up trying to beat the mass of Tiger fans leaving in front of them.

To end the story, we found out the next day that the Mizzou coach had been "sipping the gin" during the lightning delay and forgot how to even coach football.

But hey... DGB used to draw a crowd... of cops.

Stay classy Mizzou.

Dude, nice how you seem to know what motivates me. If you think I get mad for something as simpleminded as a sports chat board you just show how little you know. I have no issue with Mizzou or the cool Mizzou posters, just troll Mizzou posters like you who seem to hang on my nuts like kayro syrup.

You are the type that gets mad when you get home to find me banging your old lady instead of getting mad at yourself for not meeting her needs in the first place.

Since you brought the subject up, and you have to the answer is related to basketball...

when in God's name are you worthless Missourites going to do anything on the basketball court? We didn't bring you in just to suck off the SEC's success and remind us the yankee way of life.

Get off your asses. Start working on basketball NOW, you freeloading bastards.

The Reconstruction is already well underway.

Mike Alden had to have his feet held to the fire to finally bring in a True Son and Kim Anderson is doing work.

As to the OP... Big Blue Basketball Nation is Kentucky's version of St. Louis Cardinal Nation. Everybody loves a winner. The Winter Warm-Up is the same as Midnight Madness - thousands of sycophant fans showing up to feel smug about their parasitical greatness.

Big Blue Football Nation is like St. Louis Rams Nation... If you're winning, gimme a call.

From a Mizzou fan with an apparrant very short memory. Like Faurot was always full before Pinkel.

Big Blue is really about Basketball which is where Kentucky's major contributions to the SEC are.

Mizzou, u guys cant win shite even in basketball.

Win something and then dis another team.

Tsk, tsk.

UK football pre Joker was consistently in the Top 25 in attendance in the country. Next to South Carolina fans they had one of the most loyal fans in losing eras. Try asking any national college football broadcaster over 50.

With a 120 million stadium upgrade and a 50 million facility upgrade football is really looking up. Younger sportscasters are saying UK is finally looking like an SEC football team by the size of their players under Stoops.
