The reasons are pretty valid.

 

Has nothing to do with not wanting to.  I just get anything out of cheering for another team.  Honestly, I should root for the gators to go undefeated until they play us.  It makes sense no?  But I never do.  Ever.  There is a great argument to want to play in a weaker division.  It gives you a better shot at making the playoffs.  So I guess it goes both ways.  I just don't get rooting for another team simply because they are in your conference.  But by all means, root away...

 

I think what we are seeing though is more of a backlash towards the SEC.  You hear fans chant it and constantly talk about how great the SEC was/is.  Same thing with tebow.  I think we are seeing fans rooting for the ACC simply because of SEC arrogance.
