Favorite Lines to Make Rival Fans Angry

Submitted by GoBlueFrom_RU on
We've all been in heated debates over college football, razzing friends / random people who root for other teams never gets old, or at least for me. That being said, what are your go-to lines to piss off your friends, coworkers, loved ones, etc who root for other teams? A personal favorite of mine for when Michigan beats Notre Dame was to call my uncle (a ND alumn) and say "Hey, I missed the game today I got caught up watching Rudy. Do you know what the score was?" Because we haven't played the past few years and I now know a bunch of kids who go to Penn State, I plan on calling all of the penn state people in my contact list when the maize and blue hold a 4 touchdown lead in the 4th quarter and saying, "Hey do you know what the score was, I missed the game because I was watching the 30 for 30 on the Sandusky scandal."

yeah, i have an otherwise-rational (and even brilliant) friend who went there and he is basically not only on the side that says all the witnesses are lying in order to get money, but that Freeh lied about JoPa because he thought he wouldn't get paid as much if he concluded that JoPa was innocent.

Naturally, I tell him to change the subject whenever he brings it up.  The self-delusion absolutely overwhelms the rational instinct.

You went to OSU? Oh wow, you're so lucky - is it true that if you put your diploma up on your dashboard that you're allowed to park in handicapped spots?


You went to OSU? Cool - so did you end up marrying your first cousin or your second cousin?


Or you could just go with the classic...
Once a Buckeye, Always an Asshole.

All the success your program had for a decade was aided by cheating at an unpecedented level, so your program is illegitimate.  Where Michigan's failures in athletics are unique, OSU's seem to be the rule.

Oh, and another one of your star players is in trouble with the law.

I used to work with an unapologetic Auburn alumni.  He was always SEC this/SEC that, only decent conference in the world...  You know, the typical stuff.  I got him to shaddup and walk away whenever I reminded him that "Alabama Usually Beats Us 'Round November".

I always like the blank look I get from State fans when I tell them the little stutter step the band has when they take the field looks like they are all trying to shake a turd out of their pants after shitting them.

After a loss leaving the stadium, when encoutering a rowdy group of opposing fans, there would often be chants of "That's alright! That's OK! You're gonna work for us someday!"

I have at times used variations of, "No ...I went to a good school"

or when dealing with 95% of dame fans who couldn't sniff an admissions letter from the school, "So when did you graduate and what was your degree in?  ....Oh, really?  So why didn't you go to noter dame if you're such a big fan? ....Oh, I see.  So you grew up in Schaumburg and your Dad's side is 1/2 Irish and you've been a fan ever since?  Got it. 

 

My newest line for domers is simply, "I don't know, I don't really follow ACC football to be honest."

but I went to a Lions game in Cincinnati and of course the lions lost. As I was heading down the steps of my section, some Bengal fan was saying something like "Came down just to lose have a nice drive back" or something like that. I returned with "At least in four hours I'll be out of this god forsaken state. You have to live here."  What was funny was the look on her face. She almost had to acknowledge I was right.
