Im embracing "old Big East culture" taking over the ACC

During the hey day of he Big East it was VT, IT was Miami. It was smack talk, physical, take no prisoners football. and the rest of the BIg East knuckled down. I see ACC getting that way. The Tea and crumpets folks might have alot of money to write checks, but to them 'its' unseemly' to play that style. I like it, with the 'outside P4 conferences' kinda puts the P2 brand and the TV networks in its place. My hope NO SEC at all... or Big 10 yes Miami versus texas tech...... then we will hear the narrative, the the selection team get it right, or need more bids yada yada

Went to UM-OSU last night. OSU fans were louder, UM fans are obnoxious

University of Miami football fans are like front running cockroaches

I say let them have their fun. It’s been a long drought for UM. I’m glad
Hoakie82 • 01/01/26 01:52 PM ET
Their actual fan base is small, and frankly I liked the UM grads I met.
EDGEMAN • 01/01/26 10:32 AM ET
I think the UM fan base that travels is very different from the majority
Hoakie82 • 01/01/26 01:54 PM ET
No doubt!**
EDGEMAN • 01/01/26 02:14 PM ET
It is.

Well, I imagine if you pay $65,000 tuition plus room/board/books, etc,

Yep. Those are Street thugs who happened to own UM clothing/hats.

squarerootofone • 01/01/26 11:06 AM ET
The traveling UM fans are mostly alumni and families.**
NoHuddle • 01/01/26 05:02 PM ET
The thug part of their fan base would probably never come to Blacksburg **
OrlandoHokie • 01/01/26 11:33 AM ET

Only Miami has stepped it up.
EDGEMAN • 01/01/26 10:34 AM ET
I live in the Tampa Bay area and honestly even that far south in the state
VPI_1998 • 01/01/26 10:18 AM ET
Accurate.**
Maroon Baboon • 01/01/26 10:16 AM ET
Curious - how full was the stadium? I am just interested to see how well
VPI_1998 • 01/01/26 09:42 AM ET
At first it seemed it would be half full at best but it filled up to at
JACHokies • 01/01/26 09:54 AM ET
