I think you just wanted to be a dick but I'll play. The "blackout" game in which they were steamrolled by bama.

where is black in the history of kentucky?

I'm sick of teams just rolling in with black uniforms, it should be a rule that you must wear your team colors or white, this whole black shite is getting just stupid


they were paying homage to mr wildcat guys

Black is fine if it's one of your school colors. UGA wearing black is just fine, but black is not a UK color. Black is not a UF color. Why the heck would they show up wearing a UGA/USC/Vandy color? Kentucky in those uni's appears satisfied to toss tradition out the window. Ofcourse the way they finished out, maybe they have. Reminds me of Notre Dame getting pumped up when their team shows up in Tulane green. Just dumb.

this is a big deal on a kentucky board i visit. just thought it was funny how fired up they are about this.


It was done to remember Bill Keightley who passed last season. He saw more live games than anyone EVER at UK, and was on the bench thru the Rupp years.

Nice. At least know some history, it's important some places.

I understand to do black for that one game to honor him, thats cool. But thats not why they wore them today. They wore them today b/c "Meeks" wanted to and Billy needed to pull everything out of his hat to win this game and save his job

Worked out well for UGA this year.


Georgia's school colors are Red and BLACK. UK's are Blue and White. OK to wear black if it's one of your colors, but really sucks IMO, if it's not. UK fans have a right to complain, just like LSU's did over those black baseball caps/jerseys......

No thats why they wore them the first time this season, they wore them this time to get the players excited to play, b/c Meeks was bitching for Billy to let them wear them. Thats why Billy announced it last night, jut to get them excited
