I saw my nephew from Oregon yesterday at my dad's funeral, hadn't seen him in 20 years. He's an Oregon State grad.

I asked him if he was pulling for Oregon in the National Championship and he laughed and told me when he found out Oregon was going he went out and bought an Auburn tee and cap, and so have a lot of his classmates.

No loyalty to the home state at all. Very Alabama'esque. Thought it was funny.

Yeah, I know...CSB...

Mike Riley must be conflicted as the HC of Oregon State who grew up in Corvallis, and an Alabama graduate.

*edited: Riley is a native of Idaho, not Oregon, but he played HS football in Corvallis and considers it his hometown.

He's cheering for Auburn. Book it. I'm sure all the Oregon State players hate the shite out of Oregon.

I know for a FACT Bama fans are wildly conflicted.

Most Bammers are SEC! SEC! SEC!...

...except for when it comes to their arch-rival.

One Bammer put it to me this way: "I hope Auburn wins, because then the SEC wins, but then I hope they're stripped of the title, because then they won't have one, and Bama wins".

I like his logic, up until the last 2 words

Bammer logic: Alabama wins whenever Auburn loses.

The way he talked, that's close to the truth. My brother-in-law (the one I don't like that much) is a Miss. State grad and seemed truly perplexed by that mind-set. He's one of those rah-rah SEC folks.

Oh, and my nephew thought that Cam-gate was just funny. Said it'll make Oregon's beat down even sweeter.

Let me give you a little hint about Oregon-Oregon State. Beaver fans really hate us and consider us their top rival. Now, don't get me wrong here, we really dislike Oregon State. However, we hate Washington a lot more. A whole lot more. From what I can tell from the SEC Rant, I guess it could be like Mississippi State (Oregon State) hating Ole Miss (Oregon) even though Ole Miss (Oregon) hates LSU (Washington) the most. Sorry if that was a little confusing.

From a USC fan's perspective using that model:

ucla=Oregon State

USC=Oregon

NotreDame=UW

I get it.

Why the frick would you root for your rival to win a NC? That's retarded to expect that of anyone, unless they're a known bandwagon.

I would never support Clemson if they went to the NC.
