[Random UK Fan]

I'm not saying it's a lock, but I'm going with UK. We've played several ranked teams this season, we're maturing and looking like where we need to be heading towards the tourney. We still need work in areas, like slow starts, conceding respectable leads. Also, it'd be tough to imagine losing back-to-back games at home.

Could we lose? Absolutely.

Kentucky polls are a little pointless, no? Half the voters will be Kentucky fans and not one will vote against them.

 

[toonces11]

I think UT's best beats UK's best....but i have no idea who is going to show up. I'd go with UK b/c its a home game.

 

[LetsGoDuke301]

UK in a blowout.

 

[iowahawkeyes69]

Tennessee by 5

When it comes to threads involving Kentucky, Kentucky fan reactions aren’t nearly as predictable as yours.

So we're the favored underdog... I like it!

UK in a blowout.

Always thought you were a pretty smart guy

 

[TheDude1]

Kentucky. Cal doesn't lose at home often, UK has beaten a lot of good teams, and sorry, I don't have a ton of faith in Tenn, with their complete lack of top 25 wins.

How about basically the same TN team won in rupp last year? Any more confidence because of that?

Did UK lose the game before that in Rupp? How many guys from that UK team are on this one? How many top 25 wins did each team have last year?

Kentucky wins unless referees show up to the game. Kentucky would be undefeated the past 30+ years if the NCAA would let the players call their own fouls like in pick up games. ****ing corrupt NCAA.

I can only imagine your disappointment upon learning the truth.

You can't handle the truth, della. You won't be able to even begin understanding the truth on Saturday!!

The truth is going to "set you free" to lower UK seasonal expectations Jimbo.

I am so pumped for this game. I will be hammered before and after tip off

That is a good thing. You'll be able to blame the hangover on the booze instead of the game.


Don't drive...

By what...a point? A blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then. UT has won in Lexington in back to back yrs 1 time ever since the 20s. Prepare thy anus.

 

[CB3UK]

A better poll is how many of these Vawls coming out of the woodwork are still around Sunday after the whippin?

 

[tw3301]

I'm just calling it like I see it man. Tired of everyone cheating Kentucky out of recruits, wins, titles, etc.

I don't think any regular UK fan here has said any of this? Not counting the guys from rafters. If that's your proof, I'll move on.

Aren’t we all from our homeboards?

I hardly post over there. I think most of the regulars on here prefer this compared to home boards. Specifically for the reason of less homers

I'm posting my personal feelings, no one else's.

 

[BasketBallJunkie-UK]

Betting lines opened up UK -3.5

Aren’t we all from our homeboards?

I'm not. Signed up here. I have no interest in going to the cesspool called rafters. Never posted, never will.

What's ironic I helped Cats Pause get off the ground when it was a fledgling.
Loved their magazine, hate the website.

 

[DezyVol]

What’s your starting line up, UK? Hagans, Herro, Washington, Richards?

Where do you think you ha e an advantage position by position (since y’all play mostly man....and we do the majority of the time)?

 

[wrbchWolfPack81]

Taking the big orange in this one. Until proven otherwise, they are the team to beat.

 

[Tigerocker]

Kinda mixed on this game but UK can't afford 2 straight SEC losses if they want a piece in the end. They have to take some chances and bring their A game.

Line is now 4. Screams at you to take UK

 

[FaithPlusOne]

Line is now 4. Screams at you to take UK

The line is moving because so many are taking UK. To me that makes the Vols a more appealing bet. But I’m really not a betting man, and if I were, I definitely wouldn’t do it for college games. All that said, while I think the Vols are a more complete team (right now), I have to pick UK to win this one in Rupp.

 

[ThePerkisSystem]

corRuppt arena will be rocking. This is their super bowl

 

[ReturnOfOakboy]

Vols = better team, but hoping they lose.

 

[Simple_Man]

This game should go to the wire,I pick Kentucky.
