Kentucky has a great class coming in next year.
As they did this year. Ranked #1 I believe. Oh wait, NI-Folk-T

They can dry their tears with their 8 national titles.

Nobody cares about Alabama or Kentucky except their fans. I believe his point is that even though UK fans are disappointed this year they have 8 championships and a ton of final fours that make this season more tolerable to their fan base. Maybe you should ask yourself why you consantly talk about a team that is not your rival and won't be playing the team you root for in any sport.

If you know anything about their basketball fanbase, you'll know that 8 championships do little for them to make this season more tolerable going from title to out in the first round of the NIT. |

I admittingly don't know anything about their fanbase, but I'd definitely take some bad seasons if there was a championship in there somewhere. You really have to lose to appreciate winning. There are a lot of spoiled fan bases(many in the SEC) that just expect winning and act like sore losers when their football team goes 7-5 or 8-4. I've experienced a lot of suckage rooting for MU and KC sports teams in my life so it would seem pretty acceptable to me to have an NIT bid after a championship.

Bull. Saul and several others on this board puff out their chests bragging about the exploits of the dominant SEC programs. I guess I find it hilarious since I couldn't give two squirts of urine whether OU wins 10 games or loses 10 games. I'm not a conference-fan, don't have to hide behind them to get my surrogate taste of glory. Nothing wrong with liking your own teams even if they stink. I love the Chiefs and Royals. I know they both stink. I don't hide behind the exploits of the Baltimore Ravens to argue with Bronco fans. I'd be too embarrassed. |

Just take a little time to head on over to catsillustrated.com - the rivals board for UK. Look through the basketball forum. MU fans think KU fans are the worst? Not even close. As for me, I'm similar. I'd take a year of struggles with a young team if it meant the prior year was a championship. Honestly, that's what I expected after 2008. But for UK this was just another "greatest recruiting class of all time" that got them knocked out in the first round of the NIT. A lot of them have turned on nearly every member of the team and even Cal has thrown a bunch of them under the bus. |

According to Facebook's "like" feature*, here's what basketball conference is the most popular in the state of Missouri:
