Mw rivalry

Post by slcagg » January 18th, 2024, 3:35 pm

Below is an example where other fanbases don’t like usu. it seems to be something I see often on Twitter. The one Wyoming fan complaining about us, Boise can’t get us out of their heads in regards to basketball.

I take this as more of a compliment that we have been successful. Both football and basketball has won alot of games in this conferences

All the teams in the conference would fall into either true hatred or general hate for me. I want the Aggies to smash all of them, isn't that the purpose of being in the same conference?

I am just a country bumpkin but I have just never understood hating a team for trying to win games or their fans rooting for those teams..

You're generally a peaceful man. But in this territory, there's one thing everyone here can agree on. We hate BYU. :thumbsup:

It's hard to give credibility to a CSU fan that has that many teams that are above Wyoming on this chart. ;)

I don't hate UNLV for giving us fits, or New Mexico for taking us to the woodshed (including House). I hate "the Show", but not the SDSU athletes and coaches. Dutcher is a classy dude that just looks like a used car salesman. Boise St is just so easily hateable across the board. I have had good interactions with some of their fans, but it's hard to throw a rock without it bouncing off the inflated egos of the collective. Also Leon Rice sucks.

Hate is not a word I apply to many things and certainly not to other conference teams. But I do have a barometer which registers which Aggie wins I derive the most enjoyment from (in order based on basketball):

BSU
SDS
CSU
Nevada
UNLV
NM
Fresno
Wyoming
AFA
SJS

I think USU gets general hatred for a combination of our success in conference and some unfair religious prejudice because we are in Utah.

I'm with spuds on this one, guys. I can't stand Leon. Kind of like how I can't stand Randy Bennett. I loathe BYU. I'm ambivalent about Utah. Everything else just is.

Didn't you ever see the epic thread on this subject from the MWC board? I think it was initially due to the fact that we tried to blow up the conference before we joined. And when we finally did join, historically we hadn't been very good, so other conference teams were upset because they thought we would be another SJSU dragging the conference down. And then suddenly we started actually winning stuff, which made people even more angry that the team they looked down their noses at for so long was suddenly beating them. Then combine that with the Mormon stuff and the fact that we share a state with the most easily hateable school in MWC school (if not NCAA) history.

I feel like someone needs to write a sociology dissertation about why the MWC hates USU so much. There is a lot to unpack there.

It is very obvious that you have never shared a conference or a state with them. The level of self-righteousness and superiority (combined with the infuriating fact that most of their teams are pretty good) is simply insufferable.

Such short memories in Reno. The stench had two guys make a late hit out of bounds on a UN RB, trashing his leg and his career. Seething hatred was all we heard out of Reno for years.

For a long time that was the longest running thread on MW board. It needs to be bumped if USU ends up winning the conference. I volunteer as tribute.

Nevada has had multiple games against BYU in football and basketball before. I haven't worked up any particular thoughts for or against the school or the fans.

So are you saying no school has ever taken a massive dump on Nevada..Are you saying no school is victimized like you guys?

I am not better than anybody..You guys just have this boulder on you shoulder like you deserve a medal for being so put on upon..

I like you guys but jeeze louise. You have had a hugely successful athletic program for year and years and years..

He probably feels that way because byu hasn't taken a massive $hit on Nevada like they have us.
So are you saying no school has ever taken a massive dump on Nevada..Are you saying no school is victimized like you guys?

I am not better than anybody..You guys just have this boulder on you shoulder like you deserve a medal for being so put on upon..

I like you guys but jeeze louise. You have had a hugely successful athletic program for year and years and years..
I despise byu and no one will ever convince me not to. BUT I'm just having a little fun with it all my Wolfpack brother!

Just pretend BYU’s color is red and letters on their jersey spell UNLV and I think you’ll mostly understand where we’re coming from.
