Most folks grow up rooting for one of "those" teams unless they are fortunate enough to have parents who were App alums. I grew up rooting for Georgia since my father and most of my extended family went to Georgia. I still own a few Dawg shirts / caps but they mostly collect dust while I accumulate drawers full of App gear. I do pull out the Georgia stuff for their bowl games or if I go to a game there against someone other than App. Most of us have parents, siblings and friends who went to ACC schools though, so I don't see the need in automatically jumping anyone who dares to say they root for an ACC school also....even (gag) UNC.

Two differences: 1) that school has systematically held other NC universities down for years, 2) they defend and/or deflect when those actions are discussed.

I used to do a lot of things when I was younger, then I grew out of those habits.
