IT GETS OLD. GROW UP!
I am proud of a lot of things, but bragging about a school you may not have attended or had attended 20 years ago is just sad.
I will miss the dominance of SC, but then again I did not miss it the 20 years prior to this run. Best of luck Carroll; take the money and Run!

Take a trip to knoxville sometime. Big T's in the back of every SUV window. Bit orange flags with white Ts on them hanging from every third front porch.
Half the people in town wearing orange T shirts.
Strangers walking up and asking, "do you think we'll do it this Saturday"? And then wondering in amazement when it is explained to them that they are not part of the team, they are only spectators.
People who attended USC are proud of that fact and understandably so. They are also fans.
Having a license plate holder that says USC Trojans is called supporting the school, the institution, the teams. It also lets successful people know they have something in common.
It's a whole lot less obnoxious than fans pretending they are part of the team, or people making tard-like hand signals to resemble part of an big dumb animal (ironic), or 60,000 tards doing a chopping motion and yelling a ridiculously obnoxious chant over and over and over all game long.
