The common term for the sports teams and fans of the University of Kentucky (although fans are more recently known as the " BBN " - Big Blue Nation when speaking of them collectively). As charter members of the SEC, there are many too many legendary figures (coaches, players, staff, administrators, etc.) and team or individual records to mention (i.e. All-Americans, National Champions, World Records). Although the Tennessee Volunteers have been their long-time rivals (especially in football and basketball), the University of Louisville Cardinals have been a more recent version.
