Bama


USC


I see little difference other than we play one more regularly, they can both go straight to the depths as far as I'm concerned... Both are easily on my, 'top five most hated teams in all of sports' list.

Bama can never reached the pinnacle of despise that USC and scUM enjoy.

Eh, to each their own... tOSU and Bama are worse than anyone, even our rivals... I've said it many times here, I hate Michigan, obviously, but I've rooted for them against tOSU numerous times and will doubtlessly continue to do so... I couldn't imagine having them as a rival and having to deal with that fan base... smh

(Yes I know, ND fans in Michigan and the surrounding states get all up in arms whenever I say that... different worlds I suppose).

There are many things to hate about bama and Saban but I do respect the way Saban coaches and how his players play.

Juju is the only thing I respect about USC and he's leaving in a year.

The former doesn't deserve nearly as much hate as the latter. As the old saying goes, ND has one friend (Navy), one rival (USC), and one enemy (UM):
  • Middy is your undersized friend with a massive chip on his shoulder who enlisted straight out of high school. Though he rarely wins, he always goes 110% against you (which leads him to take the occasional cheap shot as well). But he saved your life once when you were kids, so you still get together every year.
  • Troy was your best friend in high school, but he went to college in SoCal and came back as a super douchey DudeBro. He's always bragging about how many Playmates he's partied with, and that one time he smoked out with Snoop Dogg, but it's all a cover for his deep-seated sense of insecurity. Even though he's sort of a creep now, you guys have way too much history together to break things off.
  • Biff, on the other hand, has always been your hated enemy. When you moved into the neighborhood, he convinced all the local kids to ignore you (which coincidentally is what forced you to look elsewhere for friends, and why you started hanging out with Middy and Troy). Someone burned a cross on your lawn once, and while you can't prove it, you know Biff was behind it. His family has fallen on some tough times recently, which has chastened his arrogance a bit ("Mick, think of all the great times we had growing up together!"), but you know deep down he's the same bigoted redneck he's always been, and as soon as things start going his way, he'll go back to doing sh!t like egging your house at 1am again.

1) Michigan
2) Ohio State
3) USC
4) Florida St.
5) Alabama (more jealousy than hate)

Reps. I don't think our regular opponents can be described any better. Such metaphors, much allegory, very win.

Pro football in LA is doomed to fail. The hype will last about a year unless the Rams can pull a rabbit out of their hat and make a serious run at the SB. USC will always be top dog in LA IMO.

I think Bama's speed is probably on par with USC's, so their D should dominate the Trojans. I also agree that Bama's running game should dominate. I won't be surprised if Bama wins by 14-20 points.

Not this time. The NFL is at a can't fail level now in LA/OC/IE. I spent most of the last two years in OC and I'll bet the moon they tear it up. I was in AZ to watch the Cardinals finally get over the hump on the back of the NFL's growing brand and a fancy new stadium/game day experience. The Rams will have that with LOTS more customers.

Sparty - The guy who played against you in inter murals who always played hard-nosed, 110% against you every single time but calls you over when he sees you at the bar for a beer and a few laughs.

Pete - Your younger, smaller cousin who can be pretty smart sometimes, but doesn't have your physical gifts/ability, yet he still keeps trying.

Mahty from Bahstin Mass - Mahty is the blue collar guy that was wicked tough but usually on the B-Team because he was slightly undersized. A good guy that is in every one of your religious ed classes and and was at all the church youth fellowship outings too.

FSU and Miami? They are the guys you see wanted in the Crime Stopper commercials or the ones being led into or out of court on the news in manacles.


There's my shot at it Whiskey...

I see it as:

MSU- Younger brother of a mortal enemy you spent decades feuding and fighting with. You engage in altercations with the little sibling also, but it isn't nearly the same. There's some hate between you and him, but it lacks that sense of contempt.

Purdue- The weird kid that lived down the street. He ate boogers, but you hung out with him occasionally because he was the only dude on your block that had a ColecoVision. You let him beat you every once in awhile at Zaxxon to maintain the illusion you were friends.

BC- The spoiled trust fund baby you went to school with that acted tough because he grew up in a pampered suburb 30 minutes from Southy. You go to a bar to watch the game with him, and he is in the bathroom doing coke the whole time.

FSU/Miami- The guy you quit hanging out with because all he wants to do is get high and beat or sexually assault women.

Couldn't stand the guy and feel that his father really screwed him up, but this is very sad. I hope he can get the help he needs.
