Other than ND, do you like any other teams?

As the vast majority of ND fans are subway alums, I would imagine that you have other college football teams that you like and or root for.

For me, my list is a s follows:

1. ND
2. VT (my alma mater)
3. Anyone playing FSU
4. The underdog in any game that I don't care about

I have a lot of respect for Oregon and Iowa. Mainly because I like their coaches a lot...

Ohio State. Even though my Irishenvy friends all hate them and Notre Dame plays them about as frequent as Haley's Comet rolls around.

jigga, you're killing me.

I like Cincinnati. Gotta root for the locals.

I also like Air Force. Because my old man was in the AF and I've always enjoyed their style. I'd love to attend a game out there one day.

There isn't a specific school I like. In fact, I dislike many of them, but I love watching the SEC. I find it to be the fiercest conference with a lot of tradition and it's fun to watch teams beat up on each other that much without having a specific rooting interest.

I'd have to add Navy since my dad was in the Navy.

Location allows me to get Illinois and Northwestern football on a weekly basis.

Bowling Green because the significant other is an alum.

Penn State. Class program.

Navy and whoever is playing PSU.

If you live deep inside PSU territory as I do and aren't a PSU fan you learn to hate them rather quickly. They have a class program, they do things the right way but I HATE THEIR FANS. PSU fans are absolutely insufferable. All you have to do is see one "If God isn't PSU fan then why is sky BLUE and WHITE" bumper sticker and you will feel the same white hot hatred that I do.

A good Saturday is a ND win, a great Saturday is a ND win and PSU loss. Sept 9 will be a very good day.

I think it is safe to say that if you're a Notre Dame fan, you're going to hate the school that is closest to you pretty much anywhere you live.

The major programs, yes. But like I said, I like Cincinnati. In football, anyway. I'm not a fan of their basketball team.

Love the IU Hoosier(alum). Grew up three blocks from ND however, and I've got Fam that work at the university.

MMM, never thought about that Jigga... but I live in pittsburgh and I do dislike both Pitt and Penn St... especially PSU and PITT fans, right on Guff!! for different reasons, PSU fans are the most arrogant/cocky fans in the world!! Pitt fans are the most ignorant, I mean down right vulgar and ignorant. I was spit on when I wore an ND shirt 3 yrs ago to the pitt game when jj ran wild. and last year their fans were chanting FU IRISH!!! couldn't believe it since there actually were some kids at the game.

I like WVU(big suprise huh), especially Rich Rod., great coach hands down.... but it is a huge gap between them and ND!!

Live in Arizona so I cheer for the 2 state schools ASU Football (No Clue what the heck is going on over there this year!) and UofA basketball.

Also, cheer for NC State since I used to do security work for their Athletic Dept.

I didn't know time period wasn't a factor in this thread.

In that case, I'm going with USC under Hackett because they blew chunks and their fans loved them so.
