Missouri should be in there somewhere for Arkansas.

I still have Nebraska as our #2 I still get excited seeing these two on the field together.

I still don't claim The Sheep frickers as a rival. They are more of an annoyance.

For Kentucky, it obviously varies greatly between football and basketball. This is clearly a football thread so:

#1 Tennessee. We absolutely loathe them. And always will. frick Tennessee.

#2 Louisville. For UK fans who live in Louisville, they'd switch #1 and 2 on this list. It's their fans. Just the fricking worst.


Those two are non negotiable for every UK fan. After that it gets a little murky.

#3 South Carolina. It is for me anyway. Other UK fans may disagree. We've had some good matchups with then and our fanbases really do not get along.

#4 Florida. We just can't stand them. It's not really a rivalry as I'm sure the Gators don't think of us like that. But from our side, we have no love for them.

Historically Indiana would be on this list at #3. ,We haven't played the series in awhile though...like early 00s I believe.

Arkansas would be on this list if we played more often. We just don't see them much. But UK and Arkansas fans generally hate each other so it wouldn't take much to ignite this.

Missouri isn't really a rivalry for us, yet. It could be. I think they think of us more of a rivalry now because they are searching for new rivals in the SEC to replace their historical ones. I've been to several games v Mizzou and honestly their fans are some of the best behaved and nice individuals

1. Auburn - This is a no brainer. It is one of the most intense rivalries in all of sports and has made for some epic games.

2. Tennessee - Nothing like smoking a victory cigar after beating the Vols.

3. Mississippi State - Our oldest continuous rival. Both campuses are less than 90 miles away from each other.

No, not a chance. Arkansas has historical teams we already hate, Mizzou isn’t anywhere on our radar.

I notice you always try and push that shite.

2. Auburn (arch rival) -- our oldest rival....very bitter, yet congenial "to a point"..


Used to be congenial but doesn't feel that way anymore and hasn't since '86. All that's left is the 'nasty'. Its morphed into a shite-slinging mess

After we beat Mizzou a few times in a row, that game got pretty salty. Now without divisions, that budding rivalry will cool.

I agree with UL and UT. They are co-number ones for me in both bball and fball. UF is a close third, but more on the bball side over the long haul.

That's a good point. The Mizzou matchup will probably lose its sizzle with us not playing every year. Drinkwitz is such a putz. Him and Shane Beamer. Just intolerable douches.

I don't "hate" Alabama. It's such an overused word, once you get past 12 or 13 years old. I'm with Hugh Freeze on this one.

Today I learned that Stillwater is further west than Norman. SEC West is by far the best of those alignments.

Missouri is a rival now whether you want to admit it or not. As long as we’re in a conference together, we will be. There’s too much overlap between the schools for it not to be one.

I think it also helps that Mark Stoops and Shane Beamer despise each other
