You're ranked #3 in the country and were in the championship game last year. Act like it. No way Bama or OSU fans do that.

Clemson calls it a gathering and yep they do it after every win. I hadn't paid attention to it in the past but I learned of their tradition after they beat UofL this year.

I stand corrected then. I was wrong. Mu apologies to Clemson and their fans.

Why apologize? It's not like we sit around watching Clemson home games every week and know their traditions as if we're fans of Clemson. I would guess that most UK fans and those on this board didn't realize that was a Clemson "tradition". Why posters always have to attack other posters or try to make them look silly rather than just explain something a poster didn't realize is beyond me.

They do it every game win or lose. They love it when you win and go get a piece of that tiger paw grass to take home. Before any smart comments we (USC) have won 2 of the last 3 visits to clempson. Kind of like getting a piece of the hedges. Not that you care what I say, but your season really comes down to the next 2 weeks. Win both you go bowling for sure. Lose both you don't go bowling. Split and it's still going to be tough. Tennessee isn't reasonable to expect to win. I know you think georgia is winnable and it is, but not likely. Louisville will beat you like Clemson will beat us (USC). So you need miss. Stste, missouri, and I think its Austin Pea you play.

Well, because other than the fact this board was littered with threads about it after their game with Louisville, it simply isnt unreasonable to expect our fan base to be knowledgeable about the game and its traditions. Do I need to explain Rammer Jammer, rolling Toomer's, Rocky Top, etc? What about dotting the I, Howard's rock, etc? You'll not find threads of this ilk on UT or Bama's board.

Not ONE other school boards compares with BBN boards. I know , cause I don't read them.
lmao so it's your contention we won't find threads of this or any ilk on their boards because there are no threads to be had?

If I don't go to read them, then they don't exist. Why would I go to read other fans talking about their teams unless UK plays them this week? The other fans are just like me, expressing what's on the mind. Most of my thoughts and fans of other teams thoughts mean zilch.

They do it every win. It is a tradition. Why do our fans know nothing about college football?
Not knowing clemson rushes the field after every win is hardly "knowing nothing about college football!

I sure didn't know that did. Seems a little excessive to do it after every win.

We live in the South. Football is king. It wouldn't kill our fans to know what is going on around us.
Stop being so smug about it dude. Is this the first you knew something nobody knew or something? Nobody really cares that much about it. Get over yourself.

Enough with this. My gosh. So glad that you know everything about every school. Not sure why you're not reporting on the major sports channels with all your knowledge. Being obnoxious is a choice you have clearly made about this subject.

If I had known this guy was going to make this big a deal about it I wouldn't have. It was light hearted thing from me. Mr. Know It All is acting like a bratty kid about it though.

USC is a joke. 2 HOF coaches couldn't produce squat and now no one really wants to chance it. Hell, UK has owned USC going on 4 years now.

Alabama mentality, Vandy trophy case. In both sports.

Clemson fans feel an ownership of their program that goes back decades. They once had a grassroots booster club, may still have it, called IPTAY. It stood for I Pay Ten(dollars) A Year. It was a fund raising thing, you got modest benefits depending on what you could pay. But it made fans feel they had a hand in their program. Corny I know but it was an effective fund raising thing of long ago. Anyway, I guess they feel they can congratulate their team after a win.

Actually 3 years and kensucky has still lost 11 of the last 15 to south carolina. You guys would give anything to go 11-2 3 straight years and to Atlanta the year before. Plus beating Michigan, Nebraska, and Wisconsin in NYD bowl games

How's those couple of years work for you? Flash in the pan. Your history is still pathetic and the future looks like more of the same.

All 4 of those years and several more under Spurrier and Lou were quite enjoyable. Everyone has an opinion. With the way Will is recruiting and the young talent we have I think we will be fine. I think since 2010 kensucky hasn't even been to a minor bowl game. South Carolina has been to 5 bowl games, 4 NYD since 2010. Just the facts. All time South Carolina has owned Kentucky at football.
