My grandma and her 8 siblings grew up 15 minutes from Lexington and have ties with the school. My mom was preparing to enter into Michigan's School of Law before she got knocked up with me and had to drop out. It's not like I woke up one day and decided I was going to be a fan like so many do with the Lakers/Yankees, Sox,...

    I think the issue is you are a Michigan football fan, a team that's normally very good in football and a Kentucky basketball fan, a team that's normally good in basketball.

    That is what I don't like about college fans as far as bandwagoning. For example, you'll see a lot of Duke basketball fans, but Duke basketball fans tend to be USC/OSU/Florida/Texas football fans. It's a freaking joke.

    I get that, but I follow both in both sports. Just that I follow Michigan way more closely in football. In basketball, I follow Kentucky more closely, but I'm well informed on information about Michigan's Basketball team.

    If they played against each other in football, I would root for Michigan 100%

    If they played in basketball, It'd probably be 60-40/70-30 in favor of Kentucky.

    That's fine, but don't be upset when people call you out for bandwagoning.
