Was your dad an MD alum who watched the 1974(?) team loss in that ACC Tournament Overtime game?
I know you aren't old enough for those years, so I'm trying to figure out why you hated State more than UNC. I realize the Duke rivalry wasn't huge until the late 90s.

No, but we pass down our anger in Maryland. And I am old enough that it was still a fresh wound. By the time the Terps went on probation, all we had were the old days. Like you said, Duke was a 90s thing, my sports hatreds were already solidified.
And also, it was a logical rivalry. With Duke-UNC locked in a blood feud, it made more sense to spend our time hating the other NC Mafia team, locked out of the rivalry yet still the established #3 kid on the ACC block. It was infuriating. I mean, at least Duke and UNC were snooty over SOMETHING.
