The rest of the SEC tends to seriously underestimate the brand footprint of UK. It's in the Top 5 of the conference and top 20 nationally (haven't looked in a while but it's way up there).
At any rate, it's quite amusing that the two 'hillbilly' states of the conference have such technologically adept fan bases. Kinda messes with those stereotypes.

With Coach Cam it definitely isn't just Kentucky residents, he is a national fixture. Hell he is the coach to the dominican republic team he probably gets a few of their followers too.

With Alabama and Kentucky both moving away from IMG, it will be interesting to see if the rest of the conference follows suit. Collegiate Licensing was started in Alabama and Host Communications was started in Kentucky. Now that IMG College - the merger of these 2 companies - has moved to ACC country will the old SEC ties begin to die off?
