January 2, 201511 yr I tell people all the time that if you want to see another fan base that acts like the UK basketball fan base all you have to do is go north to Columbus. They're exactly the same. They think announcers are against them. They think they're undervalued. They are both very thin-skinned. They are both extremely obnoxious when they win. Hide the childre if they win a game the experts didn't think they would win. So when you read OSU fans on here or any other boards realize you're reading a UK basketball fan's rants as well.
January 2, 201511 yr It's nice that UK is relevant again. When BCG was around I was afraid I'd never see threads like this again.
January 2, 201511 yr 100% accurate. I know plenty of fans of both and they are all equally obnoxious.

My wife is an ardent UK fan. Your first three are no doubt true. She actually doesn't gloat like she used to over the wins - maybe the BCG era tempered that a bit. But I will add one more axiom; win or lose. The refs cheated.
January 2, 201511 yr Doesn't help that a lot of them are the same. If I cared a lot more about college football I'd probably dislike them as much as UK fans but I don't which I think gives them a pass.
January 2, 201511 yr We actually had this exact conversation last night before the game even started.
January 2, 201511 yr Author You haters make me laugh! To help the conversation please tell us which one you are - UK b-ball or OSU football.
January 2, 201511 yr So what you're saying is "that guy" (UK basketball fan and OSU football fan), is the worst type of human being. We agree.
January 2, 201511 yr Love UK & hate OSU, but I agree on the similarities. I also think we/they are two of the best fan bases in college sports.
