I have an OG Key Play Horse on a Treadmill t-shirt (VT), because jumbotron videos promoting things like that are one of the things that make college football so great; a Tulane Angry Wave shirt, because it's the greatest logo in sports; and an NDSU t-shirt.

The Ichabods! Did you know the high school down the road uses the Junior Ichabods (and Lady Jr. Ichabods) as it's mascot? I student taught for the Ichs!

Come enjoy the world of D3 rivalries, where sometimes even the participants don't realize there's anything going on (I had graduated before I learned about the WashU-Chicago trophy game) or folks can just decide they're rivals now (looking at you, Emory basketball) in a way that D1 can't really match (except for Minnesota-Nebraska and their Broken Chair trophy, which is delightful).

UK-UofL has definitely intensified over the last 10-15 years. Even when I was in school at UK in 2002-06 it wasn’t as big as it is now.

Pretty much, but then we quit playing them in football and that took a lot out of it on the basketball side (plus they sucked for a decade.)
