VT fans have always had a chip on their shoulder as far as TN goes.
I listened to trash talk about UT for years. Really got sick of it. One time me and some others were sitting at a table and a VT prick fan looked at me and said UT fans were crazy. I responded by saying I thought VT fans were the crazy ones because they thought they were in the same league as the big boys. I ask him, do you think the millions of UT fans give a rats ass what one guy from SWV thinks. He did not have anything to say after that.
I never had respect for VT, especially in the early years. While we were playing the likes of Notre Dame, USC, Alabama, Georgia, LSU, etc, they were playing teams like Wolford, William and Mary etc.. Most of their games was playing chumps. They would go through the season ranked, then when they got in a bowl game with a real team, most of the time they would get thumped.
I will have to admit, in the last few years they have picked it up a notch and began playing some worthy opponents.
Does not matter, I still dislike that team, a lot.
Saturday nights victory was sweet revenge for me.
As far as the people of SWV go, most are decent people. There are ass holes in every fan base.
Young people drinking can make real fools of themselves.
We have a few immature, obnoxious pricks in our fan base too.
