Prof I have a similar view here as well. Parents went to EKU and I went to UK. My family is from the Corbin KY area and the extended family was from down around Oak Ridge. I have cousins at UK and UT so its more of a playful rivalry I'd say.
That's pretty close to a mirror image. One of the reasons I've always loved the UT-UK rivalry is because it's fun fighting with family. The years the game was played on thanksgiving were the best because everybody would be together. I miss the Keg and the rivalry being a two sport thing. I mean I understand why they cancelled the Keg the year the tragedy happened but I think it would be nice if we could bring it back, especially if they ever went back to handing it off to whoever is wins in each sport.

The main reason I wish y'all had never had to get rid of Bruce was because I think instead of the SEC making UK-UF be the annual basketball rivalry, I'm almost 100% positive it would have been UK-UT.
