Message: [QUOTE="Col. Bleep, post: 1063890, member: 1023"] The hatred for a team is exactly why we should play them. Tradition demands we pound G-town...the arch-rival...every year. It's the essence of college sports. It's a loathing born of passion that fueled the rise of the Syracuse program to a national power out of the Big East. Without tradition, we're just a random group of players playing random teams without any sense of who we are and where we came from. UConn has become a new rival. And regardless of whether we like it, they are the most successful team in America since 1999. With all the great games in the past and their current stature...we should find a way to play them every year, as well. Tradition demands it. The desire to prove supremacy requires it. Both should be scheduled every year...even as we battle new teams in the ACC. (I'd like SJU & Nova, too. But there's no hate...not even profound detestation. So let's focus on the essentials).
