Wondering if most posters here either attended The U and/or grew up in the Greater Miami area?
For me, it was neither.
My family didn't have much money and I had nowhere near the grades to get into UM
I've lived my whole life surrounded by Seminoles and Gators fans united only in their disdain for The U.
Somehow as a kid who loved college football (but had no shot of actually attending a game at the Orange Bowl) I fell in love with the Hurricanes in the early 1970s. Not even sure why other than how much I quickly learned to hate Florida and Florida State.
But through the good and the bad, it's never changed.
