I can't stress this enough: CU fans are some of the worst in the country. And they're getting worse, b/c an inferiority complex is setting in w/r/t their ACC affiliation and they see themselves as every bit the equal of AU, UGA, etc. Hence, they talk incredible amts of shite to reassert themselves. They have some great fans, too, but those fans are overshadowed by some of their more obnoxious counterparts.

USC fans are generally pretty good. We were losers for so long that we're just genuinely happy to be winning. And we don't have any tradition or whatever to fall back on like Tennessee, etc so we rarely get into pissing matches.

I would call that a very fair and accurate portrayal of the two fanbases.

I loved my trip to Columbia in '11...and I almost got in a fight with a loudmouth USC fratboy after the game. He got his arse chewed out by an old alum and I got an apology...it was hilarious.
