I could see this being the case for someone who has moved to the region as an adult, but in no way should this be a conscious decision for a “local.”
Just curious, were the teams you provided simply the generally accepted #1 in each sport, or is this your personal list? If it’s the latter, then you’re the worst kind of sports fan “fan” IMO.

No, but I do cheer for another SEC team as long as they aren’t playing my school, because it’s my dads alumni and I grew up cheering for that school.

Same here.
My dad graduated from Ole Miss and so I grew up pulling for the Rebels.

When I was younger I was Kentucky basketball fan over LSU then I finally matured.

I hate those types of fans. Pick a school for better and worse. As a kid I hated the Tennessee football/Kentucky basketball hybrid fan. Those bastards were the worst.

This is not uncommon if you are older
Bear was at UK for almost a decade and maintained those friendships at Alabama. Helped him recruit the state. Similar with Rupp in basketball as many families in Alabama have KY ties.
If you were not in the Bear, Rupp, CM era it may be less likely you are a fan of Alabama football and Kentucky basketball.

I’m the same way too. My older brother and moms side of the fam went to auburn. They were my favorite team till I went to Ole Miss.

Not cool. Choose a side.

I am a fan of South Carolina Football, Missouri Baseball and Alabama basketball.

No. Not at all.
My wife is a die hard UK Wildcat but I still can’t root for them.
It’s Colorado and UofSC for me only.

That sums up my feelings perfectly

No but I respect what LSU has built in baseball

No, an LSU fan here... But my grandmother was from Arkansas, and I always pull for them when their interests do not conflict with LSU's.

Same, Mother and Father are from Arkansas, but I went to LSU. I generally pull for the Hogs when they aren't playing us.

And to think that in 2018, it never paid more to be a Kentucky football fan and a Tennessee basketball fan.

I have seen Kentucky basketball and Ohio State football fans.
When I was in North Carolina some people from the western part of the state were Tennessee football fans but followed the Carolina schools in basketball.
