[QUOTE="gte447f, post: 982567, member: 4289"] I think you’re on to something here. I know many mutt fans, some of them are family members ( my in-laws), who seem to have a much more visceral resentment and dislike, almost hatred, for northern teams like Michigan, Ohio State, and Notre Dame, than they do for any of their southern opponents or rivals. Among their southern opponents or rivals, their level of dislike is directly proportional to the perceived level of quality or status of the opponent. For example, they would be less bothered by a loss to KY or Vandy or GT than a loss to bama, because they can hand wave away such losses as a fluke that doesn’t really threaten their self image of superiority.
