What does every SEC fanbase sound like? Kentucky football fans and more were accurately imitated by Scooter Magruder in just 90 seconds.

The 2016 college football season has been far too familiar to a number of SEC fanbases. Though there was a dramatic change—see: Les Miles getting fired—there’s also been a general sense of continuity that not everyone is exactly partial to.

Though every fanbase is different, those who follow the SEC know exactly what to expect from their fellow fans and rivals.

SEC football may have the most passionate fanbase in all of sports—collegiate or otherwise. Just as the level of competition on the field is the highest of any conference in the NCAA, the fans are unmatched in their passion.

Scooter Magruder brilliantly imitated the fanbase of every SEC football team.

Painfully accurate.

The Kentucky football program hasn’t provided fans in Lexington with many reasons for pride or optimism. As the Kentucky basketball program consistently pulls in top-flight recruiting classes and competes for national championships, the football team has become a virtual non-factor.

Kentucky hasn’t played in a bowl game since 2010 and hasn’t won a bowl game since 2008.

Head coach Mark Stoop is attempting to revitalize the Kentucky football team. He’s recruited well and upgraded the facilities to the point of being on par with other SEC teams—a critical step in the right direction.

Yet, as Magruder’s video displays, Kentucky Wildcats fans are often left asking when the basketball season will begin.

Kentucky basketball has won eight national titles and 30 SEC Tournament championships. Kentucky football has one claimed national title—1950—and two conference championships—1950 and 1976.

It’s a painful reality, but Big Blue Nation has come to accept the football program as a heartbreaking romantic interest that’s too good to risk leaving for a cheaper thrill elsewhere.

Having said that, only one question remains: when does basketball season start?
