Tennessee and Kentucky have faced off on the gridiron since 1893, making it one of the oldest rivalries in major college football. It was close in the early years, with Kentucky holding a series lead after the first 22 match-ups. But since the early 1930s, Tennessee has dominated the cross-border rivalry.
Both schools were charter members of the Southeastern Conference when it was established in 1932. Since that season, Tennessee has a 53143 record against Kentucky, including a streak of 26 straight victories from 1985 to 2010, which is one of the longest such streaks in NCAA history. The Wildcats did not win any games against the Volunteers during the 1940s, 1990s, or 2000s. The only decade of the SEC era in which UK posted a winning record against Tennessee was the 1950s, when they went 631. The series was not without disappointment even during that period for Kentucky fans, however, as the Vols dealt Bear Bryant's 1950 Wildcat squad their only defeat during their school-best 11--1 season.

Q: Why is Tennessee changing their mascot to the possum?
A: Because they play dead at home and get killed on the road
The Vols have fallen to Alabama, Missouri, Auburn and Vandy to miss on a bowl for the third consecutive season.
This will mark the second season in a row that this game has featured a matchup of teams without bowl aspirations.

I wonder how many hours of potential human life have been wasted watching a bunch of useless hicks solve absolutely nothing on the gridiron except make advertisers rich since 1893.
