Since Saban went to Alabama, the hate for the Tide runs deep. Why the Hell does Nevada hate Michigan?
Also, there seems to be more Clemson fans than South Carolina fans in South Carolina.
Dynasties are great for sport. It's far better to love or hate a team than be apathetic towards them. If people hate you it's a great sign of respect most of the time.
NO hate for OU? Apparently beating Bama gains you some karma.
To an extent but when I think love/hate the Cowboys and Raiders are the big ones over the long haul in the Super Bowl era. The Patriots as of late. The Steelers never really had any truly "despised or dirty" players in the 70's. The Raiders had a defense full of them and Stabler. The Cowboys had Hollywood Henderson and called themselves "Americas Team." The Patriots have Gisele Bundchen's husband, the video spying and Belichick. Big Ben probably helped bring the hate level up a bit for the Steelers but Polamalu is so darn likeable and respected around the league it's hard to truly hate the Steelers, outside of Baltimore and the state of Ohio.
They still hold a grudge? In fairness they are a little nuts. Back to back pep-rallies after losing twice to the Steelers in the AFC Championship. It seemed odd to me back when I was a kid and still does today. Luv ya Blue, I guess? 50,000 people celebrating your team getting an ass-whipping, twice?
Here we have Dan Pastorini staring out in the crowd, not knowing how many of his future ex-wives were in attendance.
Edit: Just found this video in the comments. Priceless. Houston Oilers #1.

Houston still holds a grudge, yes. Hell, they haven't done a damn thing since 78-79.
To be fair, I was in Richfield, Ohio at the Richfield Coliseum at a Cleveland Force MISL game. Those people (and I was born near there) are assholes. They DESERVE what they get, in sports.
