RE: Who Hates Who the Most?
Anyone hate us? Anyone? Anyone out there? How sad.

On a side note I assumed La Tech and UTSA hated each other based on the game thread. 50+ pages and it was relocated to the smack talk board. No other game thread comes close to it.

I hate UTSA and their snarky posters with the passion and fire of a thousand suns. I have eaten fried chicken or some other cooked bird on the day of our UTSA game every single year since the WAC days. You want to talk about hate, ask any Tech fan and they will tell you the Road Chickens are tops.

So I'm gathering that older (said respectfully) Tech fans hate UTSA, while the students hate USM. Because the students don't hate UTSA.

Not exactly. You are one of the few fans I have ever heard from that had a mutual disinterest in UTSA-Tech. The games are usually close and dirty. The Tech Student section has been known to get very rowdy with the Visitors section at UTSA games. This is the ONLY and I mean ONLY game where I have seen that. Go to BBB, Bleed Tech Blue or here a week before the game and you will see how nasty it gets. Folks on both sides here say insane and unfiltered stuff to each other on game week. Its actually quite entertaining looking in from the outside.

I always sit in the midst of the student section and we've never had anything to do with visiting fans. Maybe it's the drunk frat boys who sit next to the visitor section that you're referring to. The rest of us don't claim them.

Outside of this board, I had never heard ANYONE care one iota about UTSA. I had heard our players didn't get along very well, but I had never heard a fan say they disliked UTSA. To most students, UTSA is the same as UTEP, Rice, and UNT. Just another Texas team we expect to beat. The only school we hate is USM.

FWIW I started a poll on Twitter asking Tech fans who our biggest rival is. 5 people have voted, and all 5 said Southern Miss. I realize that's a small sample, but we'll see how it pans out.

From a student perspective, La Tech and UTSA are not rivals, and will continue to not be rivals until they pose a threat (which may come sooner than I'd like).

How long have you been a student?
Your poll is misleading and totally off base. Southern Miss is our biggest rival. We "HATE" UTSA. There is a huge difference, hence the thread. BTW, I was in a Fraternity, it helped me out a lot over the years.

I've been a student since we joined C-USA (2013).

And to me, there isn't a difference. You hate your rivals. I'm happy anytime USM loses, but I root for UTSA in OOC games, just like I do most other C-USA teams.

We have no reason to hate UTSA that I can see. The only time they've beaten us was in 2013, when everyone beat us (except Southern Miss 02-13-banana). I guess I can see where they might dislike us, seeing as we've played every year of their existence except 2011. But to us, they are no different than UNT, Rice, or UTEP. In fact, we've played all three of those more times than UTSA.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. But as someone who is involved with the Loyal Blue Nation, I've never heard a single student say anything to indicate they hate UTSA or think of UTSA as any different than the other Texas schools.

Man, you just keep pulling numbers out your ***. Your attendance sucks like ours.

Let me repeat, in a time when every AD tries to present the best attendance numbers (paid and/or butts in seat) you had 10k with 6 home games. your anecdotal comments will not change the fact that your AD reported 10k average.

You had a recruiting god, we had grampy - your AD reported 10k average.
You had an engaging coach, we had grampy - your AD reported 10k average.
You have a brand new stadium, we had tent city - your AD reported 10k average.
You had the U at home just a year ago with 29k, we had grampy - your AD reported 10k average.

OC40 embrace the sucktitude that is FAU's attendance. 03-lmfao

I am nit pulling numbers out of my a**
I posted pic of the student section for the home opener.....
Our attendance sucks but its not like yours.
We have never had game with maybe a couple hundred fans!!
We have a set of a couple thousand of diehards that are at every game they are the ones that even show up at noon on Sunday for a game after hurricane.

From what I can tell the hatred is reserved for this board. Outside of here, no one (from La Tech, at least) cares.

My "problem" with Tech/USM is more with Tech than USM...see Hogdawg's post earlier in the thread. If WE don't view ourselves as at least your equals, we'll never "rival" you, either.

And that's NO FAULT of USM. That's on US.

if we're talking about "hate" (and we ARE), I've decided I dislike UTSA...because they seem to always try to start s*** with us.

7 pages in, and if a USM fan expressed any hatred of Tech, I missed it, whereas a Tech fan has repeatedly expressed his hatred of USM and was seconded.

I think you're spot on about most USM fans being no more than sort of annoyed by LT if they have any negative feelings at all. TBH, most of our fans had no idea "The Rivalry in Dixie" was even a thing when Tech joined CUSA and the term was dusted off.

Hopefully, your players will keep taking crap and we can turn this into something.

I mean, I didn't know for our first two years in C-USA. But when I saw our history, I respected that history and considered them a rival. Don't understand why people are so resistant to accept a historic rivalry. Instead, USM fans seem content to not have a current rival, which I don't understand. Rivalry is one of my favorite things about sports.

I agree no hatred but more an annoyance by USM fans also. A post about USM beating an overrated Houston team right after WKU won the CUSA championship. USM has had some good teams but USM is no Boise has never won a BCS bowl just like Tech and the CUSA schools.

I find your lack of hate concerning. Perhaps Tech needs a reminder of declining the Indy bowl in favor of the virtual bowl. You can't teach stupid.

I mean that sucked, but we've won 3 bowl games since then, so...

I don't hate UTSA because we aren't rivals and have no reason to hate them. We have no history with UTSA. We have played every single team in our division more times than UTSA. UNT 15 times, Rice 10, UTEP 13, Southern Miss 48. UTSA... 5.

Our only C-USA rival is Southern Miss, and there is no hatred towards anyone else. UTSA fans seem to dislike us, but most Tech fans (outside of this board) couldn't care less about UTSA.

C-USA rivalries as I see it

West Division:
Tech-USM (Rivalry in Dixie)
UNT-UTSA
apparently USM-UAB is a thing

East Division
WKU-MTSU (100 Miles of Hate)
WKU-Marshall (Moonshine Throwdown)
FIU-FAU (Shula Bowl)

Southern Miss fans are like the old guy that tells you they used to walk up hill both ways and things used to be better, but really everyone around them has just moved on and they will always be the same school forever.

The same goes for Marshall who looks down on everyone when they are basically a CC college that has a football team.

And I hate you and your POS coach. Cc College? Least this Cc school has better traditions then you.

I've actually always been pretty fond of LT. It's going to take some time to gin up any real disdain there. On the whole, it seems like LT fans have significantly harder feelings toward USM than vice-versa, but it may just be a vocal minority giving that impression.

I think Tech fans have a honest respect for USM and the only thing we hate is you guys have our number.

RE: Who Hates Who the Most?
The dislike for La Tech from UTSA has a lot to do with Dykes running up the score in '12 and Holtz running it up this year, imo. La Tech fans tried to justify it but I think any unbiased outside observer would recognize that both times it was unnecessary. Other than that, I personally have a lot of respect for La Tech. Small school, from a small town yet consistently churn out good seasons and have passionate fans (the threads for game week are always fun). Hopefully under Wilson we can win more of our games because as of now it's been one-sided in favor of La Tech.

UNT just sucks and is pompous. Noone like a person that is mediocre at what they do yet struts around like they're hot ****.

Isn't it funny how different fans PERCEIVE different opinions? As a Tech fan, and admittedly viewing the C-USA landscape through Blue and Red Glasses, MY OPINION is that more USM fans seem to hold disdain toward Tech than vice-versa. I see (and saw) a lot of posts from USM people either blatantly saying USM basically "tolerates" Tech, you know...like the backwards third cousin at the family reunion. HAHA!

...like you, Harbor, maybe my impression is based on a vocal few.

My "problem" with Tech/USM is more with Tech than USM...see Hogdawg's post earlier in the thread. If WE don't view ourselves as at least your equals, we'll never "rival" you, either.

And that's NO FAULT of USM. That's on US.

if we're talking about "hate" (and we ARE), I've decided I dislike UTSA...because they seem to always try to start s*** with us.

7 pages in, and if a USM fan expressed any hatred of Tech, I missed it, whereas a Tech fan has repeatedly expressed his hatred of USM and was seconded.

I think you're spot on about most USM fans being no more than sort of annoyed by LT if they have any negative feelings at all. TBH, most of our fans had no idea "The Rivalry in Dixie" was even a thing when Tech joined CUSA and the term was dusted off.

Hopefully, your players will keep taking crap and we can turn this into something.

Either that our we start beating them again in FB might do the trick 03-banghead

That would be nice...
