9 National Championships combined.
23 Final Fours
48 Elite Eights

Arguably the rowdiest, loudest arena in the SEC.



But, we comin'.

Uhh, ever heard of Florida Man?

Just so we are clear, OP stated "rowdiest, loudest area" in the SEC, not arena.

BWA is definitely the rowdiest arena in tSEC.

Yep. I really truly hated Arkansas as a kid when they joined and Nolan came in guns blazing. Felt like we finally had a team in the SEC capable of being a true rival to us, instead of all these fly by night runs of relevance everyone has at one point or another.

If Wheeler and TyTy play, then I'll ramp up the trash talk. But if they're not, we'll, it could be a rough afternoon.

OP didn't say "arena." He said area. The state of Flarda is rowdy AF as a whole.

Apologies for the shite hires for two entire decades. Hope we can revive it now

Yeah Auburn was number 1, and BWA was crazy, but Kentucky this weekend is the main event for sure.

Those early 90's battles were basketball royalty.

Just a little banter for the week between two SEC blue bloods. I think we're all reasonably aware that without Washington and Wheeler it'll be an uphill battle.

In the meantime, we shall revel in the moments that a great rivalry brings us.

From 1992-1995 there wasn't an Arkansas/Kentucky matchup that didn't have both teams ranked in the AP (and 6 of those Top 10 matchups).

Stop passively trolling & playing with these people's emotions before the game.

Kentucky has won what.. 9 of the last 10 in this very one sided series.

All time series record is 33-12.

gOaT SEC "rIvAlrY"

*Whispers* isn't even a top 5 rivalry in conference

It’s unfair for you to post stuff like that when you are clearly a photoshop professional. It sets the bar far too high for everyone else.

Pelphrey played horrible D on Laettner during the shot. We should've known then not to hire him.

Kentucky is just 8-6 in Bud Walton Arena. Some quality basketball played in that arena.

Why are you so rustled by our rivalry? Does good basketball offend thee?

Yes or no KY fans. Will Wheeler and TyTy plays?

Still our biggest basketball rival and it’s not even close.

I go to the SEC tournament almost every year and Arkansas basketball is the only other program they respect in this conference
