Since Billy Donovan days the rivalry with Florida has been bigger than any other SEC team.
Before that was Arkansas.

Louisville
Tennessee
Indiana
North Carolina
Kansas
A rivalry requires we actually play. Sure, I hate Duke, but we never play each other so it isnt a rivalry. I mean, I dont like UConn or Syracuse either but again...we dont play. Duke isnt a rival until we play each other with frequency. Some of our fans disregard this.

I mean, the OP asked for a Top 5 but not exclusive to the SEC. As often as we’ve played teams like UNC, Duke, Kansas, and Louisville in the OOC, and often for something bigger than an SEC title, it makes sense that they dominate those lists.
But UNC, Duke, and Kansas are not rivals. They are simply not.

Sure they are.

None of those teams consider you guys rivals. Louisville and Indiana does but the rest don't. It would be like Bama considering Notre Dame, Ohio State, and USC rivals in football because they are all traditional powers. It's ridiculous.

Louisville is your main rival. Are you trolling?

Why the hate for Evansville? Is this ongoing? Or just because they beat UKLex this season?

I misread. But yes. Those other teams are also our rivals.

No they're not. You have to regularly play someone for them to be their rivals. I promise you those teams do not consider you guys rivals.

We’ve played Duke in the regular season 3 times in the 8 years since we last played Indiana but you listed them.
You are aware of us playing Duke every 3 years in the Champions Classic, right?

Check their message boards. They are not talking about Kentucky. And why should they? They are not your rivals. To say so is ridiculous.

Makes sense a ut fan is trying to tell us who our rivals are or are not.

We’ve regularly played Duke and UNC in the OOC in recent memory. As well as in the NCAA Tournament.

Go check their boards. I'm sorry, but you guys are not important to them. Not because Kentucky isn't an all time great (because they are) but because they aren't your rivals.

Go to Madison Square Garden when we play Kansas.
Go to Chapel Hill or Lexington when we play a series with UNC.
Go to any of the Champions Classic games against Duke.
Or the NCAA Tournament.
I beg to differ.
