Quote:On the other hand, in college conference success virtually always is helpful to your team in terms of what bowl they go to or their chance to make it into the championship. Which is why that cheering is much more common.

 

If Clemson, Notre Dame, and FSU's other top opponents had won out instead of losing to other teams would FSU be #4?

 

So why isn't this true when it comes to Duke/UNC in College basketball where similar rules apply (as far as SoS affecting seeding for March Madness). Like I said in my previous post, SEC College Football seems to be the only instance of this in any major sport that I can think of.

 

And again, there's a difference in wanting them to win if it helps you win something (like your example with the tacks) from just celebrating that they are winning...even if your own team, (UF in this discussion)...is not involved in the playoffs
