Conference fandom may have more to do with the desire to share in the benefits of the winning teams in a conference. This explanation is built from social identity theory and is called "basking in reflected glory (BIRG)." Essentially, the person trying to enjoy the reflected success "has done nothing tangible to bring the team’s success." Few fans tangibly contribute to their team winning, but here a fan’s team has done nothing to contribute to the conference’s success (other than adding to the best team in the conference’s wins column). Put another way, the team – and the fans of that team – are taking benefits from which the individual team didn’t contribute.

Let’s be frank: unless you’re a palm greasing, bagman booster, no fan has anything to do with their team winning.

frick You're teams.
That's the first time I have seen that mistake in reverse. It's usually "your" when it should be "you're." But here, it should be "your."

If you didn't have conference pride, you wouldn't have anything worth rooting for

OP may be an idiot, but this thread premise is sound.
I hate every team in the SEC except Arkansas. To varying degrees, of course, but I don't ever root for any of yalls teams to win. Ever.

If I were an L8U fan I'd hate the SEC too.
All that cheating and collusion. Damn FBI should be locking people up.

What about when LSU or A&M play Vandy? You know you are rooting your arse off for Vandy.

Nah.
It benefits every program in the SEC if all SEC teams are successful.

The SEC being so dominant from 2006-2013 is what got Bama in the Nattie in 2011 and 2017. So frick it I’ll root for y’all against the child rapists, regular rapists, murderers, and wife beaters in the B1G every bowl season

Each team doing well helps every team in the Conference. It's just logic.

Auburn has hoped every team in the SEC loses every game. This sentiment has become much stronger since 2010. Long live Cam.
