Now, back to your regularly scheduled program;

Alright, now we switch back to rooting for Bama when they open the 2017 season against FSU in Atlanta.

ammirite?

 

[Countygator]

Not me. Need to keep shoving bama down.

 

[Pepe Nole]

We want Bama

Alright, now we switch back to rooting for Bama when they open the 2017 season against FSU in Atlanta.

ammirite?

Absolutely. For recruiting purposes we need to close the gap in state

 

[ocalaman]

I've been pulling for FSU to lose every game they play in every sport since the 1960's and don't plan on changing now.

Remember if fsu wins, it will help THEM more than we know.

Awesome!
Now, that right there is the right attitude!

This is the ONLY respectable position, IMO. It's precisely how I feel about uf, though my hatred and rooting against them only goes back to about 1987.

Bama has like 45 five stars.... We have maybe 12...... I get what ur saying but bama is hurting u just as much as us if not more

I use to take this approavh with the Gators, however, once i realized how things work. I want the Gates to win every game except against fsu. Makes us look better

 

[Uniformed_ReRe]

The ideal scenario is for your rivals to win approximately 6-9 games every season, but never beat your team (maybe once per decade). You want them to have a pulse, but still be an indisputable notch below you.

It's a bit like how pet snakes prefer to be fed live mice and won't bother with anything that's been dead for a while.

For the last 7 years, Miami has been the textbook perfect rival.

 

[Gator Fever]

Of course - you have to always root against Georgia and FSU.

 

[fsu939913]

I disagree. I want my rivals to win every game of every year except the one agianst fsu. Imagine having miami and uf in the top 5 every year but nvr losing. Dream scenario.

Realistic scenario is having ur rival in the top 25 and winning.

 

[LizardGrad89]

I'll be rooting for the Gators. Since they are not in the game I will be rooting for whichever outcome most benefits the Gators.

The only exception to this rule is Georgia. They must always lose.
