Appearances by Halley's comet occur with only slightly less regularity than seven-win seasons come to Kentucky football.
Yet in the news conference after Rich Brooks guided UK to only its seventh such season since Bear Bryant bailed in 1953, the mood was about as celebratory as a tax audit.
The Kentucky coach noticed.
Launching into one of his periodic high-volume, manic outbursts, Brooks shouted "HEY, WE'RE 7-4. HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN AROUND HERE? GOOD LORD, LET'S LIVEN THIS PLACE UP! LET'S HAVE SOME FUN WITH THIS!"
The strangest good season in the tortured history of Kentucky football took another odd twist yesterday.
