Hardly snooty but I am hard headed.    :)    I'm not sure what it is with VaTech.    Maybe it was Beamer and Greenberg but it goes back further than that.    Maybe I consider it outside the "local" area.     UVA only because it is in the ACC.     Before I moved here, the ACC was a foreign entity controlled by agents of NC.    So, when I chose teams to follow, Maryland (one) and SC (two) were the teams for me.    When SC bailed out, I started to pay attention to VA (though I do consider them snooty).

I've had a love/hate relationship with Cincy since at least the late 50s.     I was an OSU fan; My dad's cousin's son went to Cincy in the early 60s;  I liked Huggins   ...   on and on/back and forth/to and fro.

I confess that I used to root for UVA over VT when we first moved here. But then son ended up going to Tech. Always liked Beamer.
Cincy seems to have more offense this year. I never really like Huggins. Like a Bobby Knight lite.
