December 21, 201114 yr I saw a guy wearing a UK hat and an Arkansas sweatshirt. I root for two teams - UK and X - but could never root for two in the same conference. Doesn't feel right.
December 21, 201114 yr Got a buddy who chears for UK and Duke. Never made sense to me. I have a team for each conference it seems, but the only team I truly cheer for is UK. Same conference...just seems weird.
December 21, 201114 yr I root for Florida State and Duke but I root for Duke basketball more than FSU basketball and FSU football more than Duke football. I root for both schools in all sports though. If you grow up in KY and graduate from Bama like my little sister did then that makes sense also to root for both. I guess it just depends on that person's passion for the school and their athletic programs.
December 21, 201114 yr Got a buddy who chears for UK and Duke. Never made sense to me. Quite the odd pairing of teams there. But to each his own, I suppose.
December 21, 201114 yr I saw a guy wearing a UK hat and an Arkansas sweatshirt. I root for two teams - UK and X - but could never root for two in the same conference. Doesn't feel right. That would be weird. But maybe he has a kid or something that attends the other school, so he has to support the other school too.
December 21, 201114 yr Kind of like Peyton and Eli Manning attending 2 different sec schools, their family is probably conflicted.
December 22, 201114 yr I can pull for UK/U of L except when we play them. I live here, and want them to do well. I have a bunch of UK stuff and some caps/shirts. Taking Mama to see the Cards in their Bowl Game. She is a Cards fans and its only fair. Look for me and my son wearing Bama stuff.
December 22, 201114 yr I have a bigger problem with 'I root for UK basketball and ______ football'. That is my #1 pet peeve!
December 22, 201114 yr I have a bigger problem with 'I root for UK basketball and ______ football'. That is my #1 pet peeve! You'd be peeved at me then! I'm a Florida State football fan. Have been since I was 8. I will root for UK in football, but I'm not all in with them.
December 22, 201114 yr I root for only UK if Basketball. In Football I root for UK #1 but also root for several other teams including teams inside and out of the SEC.
December 22, 201114 yr I have a bigger problem with 'I root for UK basketball and ______ football'. That is my #1 pet peeve! There is a lot of that. It speaks more for the level of UK football.
December 22, 201114 yr I love UK basketball and cheer for UK football no matter what, but I'm also a realist so I cheer for other football teams cause UK is usually awful.
December 22, 201114 yr I saw a guy wearing a UK hat and an Arkansas sweatshirt. I root for two teams - UK and X - but could never root for two in the same conference. Doesn't feel right. Only time I would think its truely acceptable to cheer for both would be
December 22, 201114 yr Only time I would think its truely acceptable to cheer for both would be I hate that I can't edit from my cell phone. But what I was trying to say is that I think its only acceptable if you or your kids went to one but you've been a long time fan of another. At least as far as owning clothing. IMO you can be a fan of any team on any day if you have reason.
December 22, 201114 yr I just remembered...when Chris Lofton was @ Tennessee, I followed them and rooted for them when they weren't playing UK. Don't know if that counts.
