Blame ESPN. They decide which game they want for Super Tuesday. That drives the schedule.

And whiny-butt Kevin Stallings can suck lemons.

Lets see the breakdown for each team between Tues, Wed and Thursday games

Doing a quick check for SEC East Teams:
1. Kentucky = 5 Tuesday, 1 Wednesday, 1 Thursday (Next game is Sunday tho)
2. Vandy = 4 Tuesday, 2 Wednesdays, 2 Thursday (1 of those next games is Sunday)
3. Florida = 5 Tuesday, 2 Thursdays
4. South Carolina = 1 Tuesday, 5 Wednesday, 1 Thursday
5. Georgia = 2 Tuesdays, 5 Wednesday, 1 Thursday
6. Tenn = 2 Tuesdays, 5 Wednesdays, 1 Thursday

SEC West
1. LSU = 2 Tuesdays, 5 Wednesdays, 0 Thursdays
2. Auburn = 3 Tuesdays, 4 Wednesdays, 0 Thursdays
3. Alabama = 2 Tuesdays, 3 Wednesdays, 2 Thursdays
4. Miss St = 2 Tuesdays, 3 Wednesdays, 2 Thursdays
5. Ole Miss = 1 Tuesday, 3 Wednesdays, 3 Thursdays
6. Arkansas = 3 Tuesdays, 4 Wednesdays, 1 Thursday

10 of the 12 teams have a game on Thursday. Most have just 1. Vandy has two but with one of those their next game is on a Sunday.

We have one against UGA but don't play UF until Sunday. If anyone should complain it should be Ole Miss since they have 3 instances where they play Thu-Sat.

thats the thing, UK is going to get on TV no matter what day or time that they play so the SEC doesnt need to worry about TV for them. The rest of the SEC teams dont have that luxury so the SEC is just trying to get them some TV time. They really should just find a better way like it must be home and home for thursday saturday games, or something like that.

I have not come to this board to brag. I said we had a chance to win (was laughed at). I was happy we finally won (was laughed at).

I have said very little on the game. On the contrary, vols have laughed at cats for 26 years. I dont blame them.

if you want to talk about your chances do it on UK board, if you want to talk about winning do it on UK board. I am talking more about basketball anyways not football, such as UT fans talking about 1500 win milestone and you show up with a UK2K banner, unnecessary and as a mod showed you is teetering on the line of being banned.

This proves what I've been suggesting, which is that UK's not playing on Thursday, because they're getting picked up sooner. But, I do think, in the interests of competitive fairness, they should do a better job with who/where/when the Thursday teams play next.

That said, ESPN is ESPN, regardless of the evening. So, why not put UK on a Thursday and draw ratings?

i have no problem with UK getting picked up and thus not having to play thursday/saturday games, they have put the work in and gotten themselves to that level. with that said though the sec should do a better job of scheduling those games, make it home and home games.

I guess. Tuesday is just kind of ESPN's premier game night. Who wants to see Auburn vs. Ole Miss on Super Tuesday? :/ That's some basketball that only momma could love. Love it or hate it, Kentucky, Florida, and in prior years, Tennessee, has driven ratings for the SEC. They're gonna get the premium spots. Vandy? They all be in the library studying on Tuesdays anyway. Stallings can just shut his mouth or go DIAF.

No I'm agreeing with you, I worded that wrong maybe. I'm saying uk gets their ratings no matter what so yea espn will put them in prime spot. The Thursday game wa created to get other teams ratings and exposure, uk isn't hurting for it so they don't go there it's for teams not named uk basically.

Point is Einstein is that you are on a VOLS forum. Maybe I should have gone on KittyLitter.com all these years and pointed out just how bad ya'll suck in football year after year after year... I have more self esteem than that.

That is fine with me. Never go to UK sites anyway. Admit it guys, a lotta vols are butt hurt that they finally lost for the first time in 27 years.

Give UK credit. They needed a win.

Does it suck? Yea! Do we need a UK fan coming to our site to remind us of it? No!

Simple as that, that's all people are saying.

I haven't been trying to remind people. I think it's funny when people act like losing once every 27 years is a terrible and shocking thing.

You have to realize for a lot of us we haven't experienced this our entire life. There are certain things your accustomed to and assume, beating UK in football was one.

Again, you miss the point. But I can understand how it can be lost on you. I grew up in southern Kentucky and I am a product of the Kentucky public school system.. but in spite of that, I have been successful.

It is amazing though, that whenever UK loses to UT in hoops, that the singing of 'My Old Kentucky Home' seems more like a funeral march than a tribute.
