Didn't Know buffalo had so much hate for us. They are having a meme contest on their message board.
I actually love that they hate us. At least they care about it.
"To be loved is to be fortunate; to be hated is to achieve distinction."
As long as it's not because of us being classless or whatever, I love being the team everyone wants to take down.
No, of the two schools/student bodies/fan bases, UB is the classless one. I've lived in Buffalo several years now working on my dissertation (at a UB-associated-institution, actually) and have had several UB alumni! admit that theirs is possibly the douchiest student body/fan base in the MAC. These folks (all of them western New York natives) typically place the blame firmly on students from down state.
My wife and I made the trip to Buffalo five years ago (they beat us on their Homecoming), and we were politely minding our own business the entire contest.
Their douchebag fans were yelling in our faces about how they were performing on the field while we were continuing to say/do nothing in response, and they seemed to be more aggrivated the less we responded.
I like to give them the benefit of the doubt, and assign their issues to their proximity to Love Canal.
