Like its been said already I think its UK's Bball importance that gets y'all overlooked. I have never been to the state of Kentucky but I have been to S Carolina. They have some of the most die hard football fans as I have seen. Naturally I had on my AU hat and I was struck up by a conversation of football by numerous folks, everyone had class about them too. I rrelevent to the topic but Another thing I noticed So Carolina folks are passionate about is their state symbol, the half moon w/ the palm tree. What is the deal with that fellas? You see it everywhere.

I didn't realize yall have beaten them 9 times in a row. But my point was that it seems UK football has been, I don't know how to say this but more nationally prominent. That game in 2007 was a doozy, but with Andre Woodson UK was a scarier TEAM IMO.

You mean the 2007 season w/ Andre Woodson when we beat UGA and UK on ESPN and UK lost to you guys? Well in that case I completely understand what you're talking about.

Im not joking records over the past 2 years UK has one less loss than USC. Thats what im saying. IMO when UK had Andre Woodson they were a scarier team, just my opinion. I know you guys beat them often but thats just my opinion. Plus they have a better overall record. Sure SC cares more about football because your basketball program cant sniff UK's.

A decade ago more fans would give respect to UK than USC.

Of course a decade ago it was nearly impossible to walk out of Starkville, MS with a win. While in Baton Rouge LSU was nothing special.

Of course we love the CRESCENT mood and palmetto tree (not half mood hehe)...its prolly the coolest state flag in the union. Its simplicity is classy (how many times can one say that about something from SC?)

pretty cool story behind the flag too. One of my ancestors was in charge of collecting palmetto logs in the defense of Ft Moultrie

Quote:
The South Carolina State Flag

Dating back to 1765, the South Carolina State Flag reminds us of its role in the American Revolution and maintains its place in the annals of the Civil War with a design that was formulated as a National banner when the state seceded from the union on December 20, 1860.

Components of the current state flag were first seen in 1765, on a banner carried by South Carolina protesters of the Stamp Act. The banner that the protesters hoisted displayed three white crescents on a blue background. Ten years later in 1775, Colonel William Moultrie was asked by the South Carolina Revolutionary Council of Safety to design a banner for the use of South Carolina troops. Colonel Moultrie chose a simple and direct design that displayed the crescent (new moon)on a blue field. The new flag was the same blue color of the soldier's uniforms and the silver crescent echoed the symbol that the soldiers wore on the front of their caps.


Almost 100 years later, South Carolina seceded from the Union it had fought to create. A new banner was needed to fly above the newly created nation. Many designs were reviewed but the General Assembly settled on one simple change to Moultrie's Revolutionary War design. A Palmetto tree was added and centered on the blue field. The Palmetto, the South Carolina State Tree, had been attributed as instrumental in Colonel Moultrie's defense of Sullivan's Island against an attack by British warships in June, 1776. Cannonballs fired at the fort from the British ships could not destroy the walls of the fort which were built of Palmetto logs. Instead, the cannonballs simply sank into the soft, tough Palmetto wood.

The flag that flies over the state of South Carolina today is of the same design that flew over the independent South Carolina during the Civil War.
I'll just regress, because I feel I've made myself perfectly redundant.

so UK is In Your Opinion better than USC, yet we haven't lost to them in how long? 7 years. Sorry to prove you wrong, but they aren't better than us.

The reasons have already been stated. USC can still sell out a stadium on a 1-21 stretch, the football talent is richer, and we haven't lost to UK in 7yrs running now.

UK is more about basketball.
