Who do you dislike the most?

I actually know Notre Dame fans, so give me Notre Dame. Personally I would like to see the Big Ten give them one more chance and if/when they say no take Washington and Oregon. If they prefer the SEC when they are finally ready that's fine with me.

State Penn, State Penn and State Penn.

I went with indifferent for my vote.

Notre Dame to me is like the Yankees, you love to see them lose. I've never had issues with their fans and for the most part, find them very knowledgeable.

SEC, what can you say? They are top dog in college football. My biggest gripe with them is their love for an entire conference, I just don't get it? Also, they are the best but their fans still seem insecure about it? They always feel the need to remind everyone how dominant they are. Like Notre Dame, I've come across many fans of SEC schools and once you get past the "we're better than you" talk, they've all been great people.

ND. They can stay independent; I don't particularly care; but should get over their 100-year grudge against the Big Ten.

...hopefully not too much of an intrusion, but... as a 'reformed' SEC fan (I grew up an Aubie, but attended UAB, thus a Blazer now - still follow AU, but do not 'live and die' with them) - it appears that the whole 'SEC-SEC-SEC' deal can generally be boiled down to... "We lost the War (150 years ago), but now we are WINNING!" I truly think that's the motive behind the SEC 'solidarity', as weird of a 'flex' as that may be...

Anyway, here's hoping y'all grab some more PAC if You Want It!!! Especially Oregon (my #3 team). As to Notre Dame - my teams do not have much history with them (They've beaten Bama a few times over the decades, so not ALL bad ) but I can see where y'all in B1G Country would tire of them rather quickly...

Hope all of y'all have a great season!!!

thanks! Same to your Ohio teams - and is UNL Nebraska? Would like to see the Big Red Thrashing Machine get back in the mix. I'm on the realignment board quite a bit - somehow all of that is of interest... but honestly, I'm ready for a bit of FOOTBALL!

Also glad you dropped by, welcomed input and feedback!

UNL - University of Nebraska- Lincoln (flagship campus), according to Wikipedia aka NU.

Easily Notre Dame.

Grew up in a very Catholic area in Central Illinois - Notre Dame crap everywhere, especially from people who couldn't get into a college.

And the amount of Notre Dame fans in the Chicago area - big reason, IMHO that Illinois isn't a powerhouse like it should be - too many good Illinois athletes leave the state, led by Notre Dame.
