I actually don't disagree with most of what you write. That feeling did become magnified because we needed to represent as a conference (and, well, we sucked in football, so no harm done there). So piss away on VT!!!

I root for our conference because the better other teams are, the better our games will be. If our competition is ranked and we win... AWESOME. If they are ranked and we lose... at least our own rankings shouldn't take a free-fall. The more exciting the conference is, the better the ratings, and the better the next TV contract and perks will be. How bout rivalries? I never understood rooting against G-Town out of conference. They are so much fun to hate that if they suck and we walk all over them, it just isn't the same as a 40-minute war. Now, this isn't to say that when conference play starts I am not rooting like crazy for certain scenarios that may help the Orange reach the top of the mountain. Prior to that though, I want every team in the conference to clean the clocks of other schools leading up to the REAL season.

One thing of note, I figure every team has one low-life bottom-feeder, so I don't have a problem with finding the school I hate, normally one that adds nothing to the conference, and rooting for them to lose every stinking game **cough** **cough** Rutgers **COUGH** **COUGH**.
