They aren't just jealous of the success, they think Southerners are undeserving of it. We are low brow and pretty much the only way they will begrudgingly give you respect is if you force them to by having unmatched success


as far as they are concerned, We do not deserve a successful intelligent coach like Kelly from a premier northeastern brand in CFB. What we deserve as dumb hillbilly oafs is "one of us", a dumb oaf like Orgeron. We need to stay in our lane

Northerners/Midwesterners/west coasters most definitely look down on southerners as unintelligent hicks

Just adding onto this - This is what the rest of the country actually means when they say that Coach Kelly doesn't seem like a culture fit. They think Louisiana people are all just like Coach O or Les Miles.

We saw a lot of this the past two years when O started falling out of favor. The narrative was in the vein of "I don't get it. Why don't they like this guy? He's one of them."

And that's what they think of us. That we're content with a guy who "talks like us" and knows how to make a roux. We should just accept him as "one of us," sit down, and let the adults deal with the real football matters.
