THE LIST: TOP 10 “UK KILLERS” OF MY LIFETIME
Posted: 10th August 2008 by Kenny Colston in SEC basketball, Tennessee, UK basketballIf you’ve read my recent WGCGA posts, I’ve made reference to UK Killers.

According to the the various newspapers covering the SEC, the league is seriously thinking about creating an SEC network. And let me just say that if the Big Ten and Mountain West conferences have networks, why not the greatest conference in the NCAA. I’m just saying. The good news is that the [...]
