I would guess yes. with our games being on more tv's, then naturally more ppl will watch our awesomeness, and proceed to hate us more.
Generally Hated More; UK, Duke or UNC?

But since more people watch Duke games doesn’t that mean the audience of hate would be bigger for them?
No all Duke games were on TV last year. That is a fact. Go back and look at the thread about them being on pay per view. Prove me wrong dude or shut up.
I have Spectrum Cable. The SEC Network is on the basic package. My references to DirecTV was from two years ago. I had everything including the movie channels because I am not cheap.
I am not going to argue forever on this; however, Kentucky basketball games are on TV. They have been all on TV since about 1985. I have a vast collection of them. All of Duke's games have not been. So you will have to live with that.
I will pay what ever is necessary to watch basketball. I don't worry if it is on ESPNU or not I plan on having all the channels.
If you were not so cheap you would not have to worry either.
I probably won't be able to sleep tonight. This is a devastating revelation. Just devastating.
Btw, I watched all 38 games last year.
No schoonerwest. My argument with the Duke faithful is that they keep saying they are the most followed team. My argument is that they are not.
Now, do you understand?
I watched ever UK game since 1991. So?
Congrats. Because of this, Kentucky is unequivocally the greatest program in the country. Or the most hated. Either way, they're unrivaled in every facet of greatness... or hateness. Or whatever category fits your narrative.
It's tough giving up bits and pieces of greatness. Being the greatest used to mean being the most hated. That was normal.
Now we're still the greatest, but might not be the most hated. It's disturbing to the purest.

dukedevilz, I am sorry that you can't see the obvious.
Kentucky's games (every damned one of them) are and for decades have been on TV. Kentucky has the largest basketball facility in college basketball. Kentucky usually leads in attendance for mens college basketball. Kentucky has the most wins of all college mens basketball. UK has been invited to the NCAA more than any team.
I am not looking for any narrative. I am just stating facts.
I find it hard to believe UK is not the most hated.
It's going to be entertaining when UNC or Duke gets to 7 championships. I hope I'm alive long enough to see it.

Here I thought this was a thread about the most hated program. The majority of college basketball viewers have only seen UK win 3 titles. Fans that are 30 years or younger, have likely only seen 1 Kentucky title.
Ratings don't lie, people watch Duke in droves. So either we're the most loved or hated fanbase. According to this article, Duke had 12 of the top 20 most-watched games of the 2019 season.
Maybe we should look at TV ratings for National games when they don't play Duke and the ratings. Are there any professional sports in KY to pull from the college games? Are there other colleges that pull from the fan base.
And the largest facility has what to do with this discussion. Duke has one of the smallest. So what.
It would be tough to figure out who is the most hated. If an online poll circulated then it would be posted on RR and they’d all turn up to vote Kentucky just so they could win another online poll.
I think it’s Duke, mainly because of the east coast biased ESPN thing. It used to be Carolina 10 years ago but now I feel like it’s Duke again.
Plus the overly white floppers. Grayson with his trippin' took it to another level.
I think ppl hate our fans more than our players and others hate Duke players and fans equally.
Bert acts like this is life or death so you understand why you guys are called insecure. I do know some UK fans don’t care who’s been on TV the most.
