You don't call it a trap game when you are playing a Southeastern Conference team," said Brown. "There are no traps in this league, just tough games. Was Vanderbilt beating South Carolina a trap? Or Mississippi State winning at Auburn? No. Mississippi State is good and we better be better than good to win."

On another UK site a Gator fan makes a valid point that UK is still "just a basketball school" and points out, again with justification, that Cat fans have yet to learn how to cheer effectively at football games, i.e. quiet when your team has the ball and loud when the opposition is on offense. Most respondents to the post agree with the comments.

quote:
"I think our crowd has been very good this year. I think they appreciate what they see on the field from our players' effort, maybe not always in the execution, the tenacity, the physicality of the way we are playing the game and obviously the success that goes with that," Brooks said.

Couple the above statement from Coach Brooks with his statement at BBM and I think you have an implicature that agrees with the opinion that UK fans can improve their vocal support.
