Want a blast from the past? Here’s a passage from something I wrote eight years ago:
Of course, there’s also the idea that Kentucky fans worrying about a football rivalry with Florida is sort of useless, given that Florida holds a 24-game winning in the series. The Gators haven’t lost to Kentucky since 1986; to put that in perspective, my parents hadn’t even gotten married yet, and their move to Florida and my birth were still just sort of ideas.
It’s hard to get worked up for Kentucky on the gridiron, I think, because we’ve never really had to worry about the outcome of the game.
