A bid? For beating Tennessee? Slow down their sport. Let's let the rest of the season play out first shall we.

They got into the NCAA's last year.

SKINNER!
I'd say a win over Tennessee doesn't guarantee an invite to the dance, esp. with loss to Auburn, but they might want to start polishing their dancing shoes...just in case.
Cheryl. Why you buggin'?

If they can learn to play on the road, the way they play at home, they'll get in. But they are 1-2 on the road, losing to Ole Miss and Auburn, their win at MSU. They still have to go to UF, UT, Arkansas, Bama, LSU, plus host those latter 3. Still a long way to go, but Skinner is clearly heading that program in the right direction. Consistency is what they are missing.

LSU and Arkansas have already played at Kentucky. Arkansas lost 3-0 and LSU won 3-1 in Lexington

They got into the NCAA's last year. KY did not earn the bid last year. That was a gift. They are earning it now. "Kentucky posted its first win over a ranked opponent since the 1993 season with a 3-2 victory (30-22, 19-30, 30-28, 14-30, 15-12) over No. 18 Tennessee in Memorial Coliseum" One positive is UT may have gained some very important experience running their 6-2 tonight with sophomore Mindy Flynn up front and freshman Jena Berg as the 2 setter. Unfortunately for UT, this may have been UK's highlight of their season. [glow=red,2,300]GO LADY VOLS![/glow]

So are the Lunatics 0-2 on road trips this year or did you go on any others I don't know of? I'm not trying to be mean, I sometimes get a little superstitous with stuff like that. Like last basketball season every time I watched an away game with people the Gators lost but when I watched it by myself they won, so when it came to the tournament I secluded myself from everyone and they won.

The trip was not THAT bad... but yeah, we are 0-2 on the road. We are starting to get a little suspicious, although the thought of some of us watching UT beat Penn St. at Penn St. last year just stays in our heads.

Kentucky's crowd sucks. The lunatics and some other Tennessee fans, probably 10-12 people total in orange were louder than Kentucky's whole crowd until the very end.
Kentucky does a really nice job with a TV-quality Jumbotron broadcast. Can't understand why they don't stream it.
Kentucky's band is lame. They played as the Wildcats ran out onto the court, then left. Lame, lame, lame. The Tennessee and Florida bands play for the entire game and are at every match.

I agree with deerpark on the jumbotron thing, it was nicely done. It's too bad they dont just stream that online...
As for the superstition question,
Road games I've been at...
Win vs miss state, SEC tournament. Loss vs Bama, SEC tournament. Win vs Penn State, Sweet 16. Win vs Mizzou, Elite 8. Loss vs Florida, at Florida. Loss vs Kentucky, at kentucky.
