Yes but to be fair 5 of those are against UK, who really can't be considered SEC by any real measure
Great point. UofK football is a doormat for the SEC. They're SEC in name only. They are not SEC caliber. Haven't been since the short time in the 50's when they had coach Bear Bryant.
You're forgetting 1977.....the last time they had a winning record in conference. Of course they were cheating and their "thugs" then make our "thugs" look like Boy Scouts
We don't really have thugs. Don't know about the UK thugs.
You are right on the button with the UK cheating, tough. UK, of course, has cheated repeatedly in football and basketball and while it translated to success on the hardwood.... It never did lead to success on the grid iron. Hopefully, they realized the futility and will lose without cheating moving forward.
The $EC lets uk stay in and be a doormat (with Vandy) so they can have 6 OOC (bunny) games a year, while claiming to be the best conf in America.
We'll take the W over uk as proudly as Bama, LSU, UGA, or any of the others.
After all....they ARE $EC.

You have to understand the word "thug" for racist people. Thug has replaced "n****r" for some UK fans. I also know just because they don't verbalize a word doesn't mean the coded meaning isn't understood.
UK fans understand the language with a wink and nod to their blue t shirt wearing breathren. They use code words like "urban" as code for "Black".
Add in Matt Jones, with his background of privilege and Duke education, to add stereotypical buzz words like "line beards" ( I know you never see a UK fan or player with a line beard) and boom UK fans have a language all their own.
Sadly we have a long way to go to eliminate prejudice in this world. UK fans haven't moved as far from their " Rupp Roots" as they would want you to believe. They aren't as blatantly racist as they once were. They don't wear white robes anymore so you can easily see them. Instead they sport blue and white.
Some UK fans are sickening...

This x 1000. It was going on last night. Someone talking about Burgess's "urban theatrics." But according to him there was nothing racist about it at all. Though you could tell he was dying to say Burgess was acting like a ni**er. Like you said, they just can't come right out and say it anymore so they've changed the language
What's funny is when you call people on it and they don't have the balls to even man up to their bigotry. They say stupid things like, "I call white people n*****s too." Yea, ok. It's a real mind f*** to see people refer to black people they don't know as thugs and then they turn around and call a white guy an idiot or a goofball for the same offense or something worse. As you all said, the insinuation is there.
Being a thug isn't the only assumption these morons make. Usually something else along the lines of lack of parental figures or some kind of governmental/financial assistance. I know many a black and white person and I can assure you on average that more of the white people I know are deserving of being called something highly disparaging than the black folks I know. But it has nothing to do with color they just happen to be not great individuals. I find that people who like to drop the n bomb usually fit their definition of the word better than the person they are speaking of.
