What does the rest of the SEC do during January and February and March for the most part? College basketball is the only redeeming quality of these awful months.

Only since you asked me, my family is usually glad to have Saturdays with Dad back. I don't think my kids would tolerate me becoming immersed in another sport to the level I do with CFB.

Well this year I've been enjoying this 70 degree weather here in St Augustine. And of course watching the Cats on the way to number 8.

I doubt you fall 6 spots after we beat you in Rupp. We aren't an ugly loss or anything.

Basketball and meth.... the two most important things in the state of Kentucky. Not necessarily in that order.

Guy makes this comment, and crickets from you guys. I post a and I get double teamed by UK fans. Makes sense.

weekend. Let's discuss.

Looking towards the Green vs Davis matchup and Teague is going to continue to improve handling the ball.

Glad this game is at Rupp, if we play like last night, then it will be a long day for Bama.


Kentucky has not lost a home SEC game since Calipari arrived. Alabama has not won a true road game this year. I would not expect their first road win at Rupp. Shame we don't catch you at Coleman. At least there it is a fair fight.

If they don't, they're not true UK fans. The Kentucky RV caravan shows up four or five days before marksmanship meets.

college basketball is entertaining, but college football is do or die.


no offense, everyone is happy that you found your niche.. its just basketball is pretty boring these days.

When teams like Butler, UNC Wilmington, Loyola can make it deep in the playoffs, NCAA hoops loses its luster.

I actually don't like going to basketball games. I wish you could tailgate for basketball though.

I agree. Just another reason the SEC needs to step it up. Basketball is the easiest of the big 3 to field a decent team in. Every state has enough talent and you only need 8 guys. It's a colossal failure that ADs with the resources that every SEC school has can somehow fail at this.

It takes a shite ton of money to buy a good team, and every SEC school besides UK appropriates those funds to football players.

Well I can think of a few that need to ask for their money back in a bad way.

So what you're saying is that Bama buys their football players? Filthy cheating scum...

I'm joking. Kind of. I cheer for Bama any time they aren't playing my Cats.
