Not really, its just putting yourself in another person's shoes is beyond the capacity of many of yall.

Imagine if your team wasn't so great, and hadn't won a national title in your lifetime. Imagine your team was stuck in a conference so obscure that national football fans regularly confuse you with smaller programs in your state, and if you are lucky you get one ESPN article about your season every three years or so. Imagine no one even hates you because that would mean caring about you at all.

Then all of a sudden your team changes conferences, and for about the exact same level of success you always have had suddenly everyone nationally knows who your team is, and fans of programs with actual major success that would have confused your team with Texas Tech ten years ago now can't wait to come to a web forum after a big game to talk down to you.

You know how many OU fans were excited to talk down to us after 0-77? None.

You know how many fans even in the Big 12 wanted to talk about how we sucked on the field rather than get all into how army or not army our corps is? None.

Every day yall hate on us yall validate every decision we have made since conference realignment. That whole move was about becoming relevant and we are now.
