They are the only SEC state not supporting Texas.
Same latitude as Kansas.
Anyone have other evidence?

No. They're yankees.

Kentucky is a midwestern redneck state. With their inclination to basketball, they’d be a good fit in the B1G with Indiana as a natural rival

Far northern Kentucky is basically a suburb of Cincinnati. And then you have Louisville. It straddles the state line with Indiana. I don’t know how to classify it. I’ll say everything from Lexington south counts as southern. As a whole, Kentucky is much more southern than Missouri.

Yes. They are southern. Certainly southern than Missouri.

They were neutral in the civil war, and petitioned the Union for assistance when we tried to make them southern.

The south has to start somewhere

Kentucky and our citizenry fully support Texas.
That jackass governor in Frankfort does not.
Don't confuse the two.

No. They're border trash and always have been.

Go the Appalachian areas of Eastern Kentucky, then see if you still think they are "Yankees" or "Midwestern".
Hell...just watch a handful of episodes of Justified and ask the same question.
They are one of us...
