I grew up with the Hawks in #2, and really a co #1. I cheered hard for them 363 days a year, only rooting against them when they played ISU. That all changed when I got outside of my hometown area and got to see the arrogance of their fanbase. It's one thing for their fans to put down my TEAM, but it's another for them to put down my UNIVERSITY.
Over the years, I've gotten behind quite a few other programs from time to time, but I've never really been a fan of any of them. If they're on, I'll watch, but I have no emotional investment, and would never claim them as a #2 team or buy any gear from there. They would be as follows:
-West Virginia (loved White/Slaton, and somehow feel like I can relate to them. Don't ask why).
-Boise State (love the town, and the area. Thought their fans were good people in '02).
-Cincinnati (Just a fun team to watch the past few years).
-Oregon State (feel like we have a lot in common).
-Oregon (see Cincy, plus I always played as them in NCAA 98).
-Oklahoma State (is there another school more like ISU out there?)
-A&M (best fans I've ever come across. Hard to root against the Aggies after meeting their fans).
