Last night was one of the best Rupp Arena atmospheres in a LONG time, maybe since North Carolina in 2010. That, in turn, called for a special big-game-feel moment when UK brought out Opera Theatre director Dr. Evertt McCovey to lead the sell-out crowd in singing the national anthem.
Love it when he lets the Rupp Arena crowd do the singing of the National Anthem. #NationalAnthem pic.twitter.com/siAKtD2fFY

Hearing a sellout crowd in unison like that before a huge game never gets old.
