I have a conversation each year with my Big Ten buddy about how he doesnt understand how we hate each other so much during football season (SEC teams), but we root for each other in bowl games. He doesnt understand it as B10 schools root against each other in bowl games. I tell him that its a 'conference pride' thing.
What I find a little weird is that doesnt exist when it comes to basketball. I root for every SEC team in bowl games, but against them vehemently in postseason basketball.
I'll pull for Ky only because its the SEC. If they win and end up winning it all, then the SEC sweeps fb and bb. Gives a big cup of shut up to all the SEC haters out there.
