Like Alabama in football, helluva rivalry!

Thanks for your contribution, Coach. Ya bitter and provincial, low-IQ bottom-feeder. Can anything be about something other than Alabama insecurity? Even the passing of one of the league's respected coaches? Jesus, it's so vile the way you Gump ladies melt on memorial threads.

For those who aren't Gump bottom feeders, during Hall's tenure LSU was rolling under Dale Brown and beat UK on the regular and those two had a rivalry and a feud and both were perennial tournament teams and rivals. After Hall retired and he'd call games he and Dale were always chatting up a storm and we'd still say "Sit Down Joe" and he'd laugh and smile. We liked him, he was a winner and a gentleman. And from 77-85 those UK-LSU games were GOLD.

Joe B. Hall’s 1978 National Champions only lost two games. One of those was to Brown’s LSU Tigers.

One week after Kentucky won by two in overtime at LSU in 1980, the Tigers got revenge in the SEC Championship Game. Kyle Macy and Sam Bowie each scored 20 points for the Cats, but they could not out-duel DeWayne Scales who led all scorers with 26 points.
