Watching Rupp turn Red has been very painful for the Big Blue Nation. “Russ Arena” chants will cause the ears to bleed. Thankfully, one great Kentucky fan in the crowd revealed the light at the end of the dark tunnel. During the 2nd half this banner was unfurled at Rupp Arena. #Twinning (That’s how…

Coach Stoops really likes playing at the Nutter Field House. I don’t know if it’s because Lexington weather isn’t the same as Tallahassee, but I’m glad that I got the warning of the move indoors 5 minutes after interviews ended.
