It put a real damper on the post-game Twitter feed for me and shows our ass as a fanbase - especially since we are seen as rubes in our own right.
9/10 Kentucky fans in crowd shots could easily be portrayed as slobs, and they can help it more than that poor bastard.
Counterpoint: The dude has a Euromullet, and the mom has obviously been on Fake Taxi. Possibly multiple times. I have it on good authority that the dad is a producer of Fake Taxi, and that's where they met. So we can make fun all we want.
As for the game:
When these guys lock in - what can you do? They clearly DNGAF for 30 minutes tonight. Then, oh yeah, let's play . . . BOOM. Over. And when you are Arkansas or KU or UCLA, and they are locked in for the first 30 minutes? You have no shot.
I just don't know how anyone beats these guys in the NCAA. They will be amped every game, and when a team this large and skilled is playing hard for 40 minutes - you are screwed. Better chance we lose in the SECT than the NCAAT, in my opinion.
I obviously know that the R32 game isn't our scariest game, but it's the very last time these guys won't - possibly - come out full throttle, so really, it's the last chance anyone has to beat us. ZERO chance Cal doesn't have these guys CRUSHING in the the S16-FF. Zero.
I think UVA has a chance, Wisky has a very small chance, Duke won't get to us, Nova is a wildcard, but probably no chance, and AZ has a small chance to beat us. Everyone else, TFP, see you in 2016.
