do you hate the most? I'd say Ohio St. and out of conference, Miami. I don't know why. Perhaps its b/c they think they're hot sh**.

I still refuse to recognize Nebraska as a Big Ten member, so I would have to go with Michigan in conference. Out of conference, probably USC because I think they blatantly cheat but despite that they totally suck except for that one year they got lucky and waxed the crap out of Iowa. Don't get me wrong, I hate ISU and Nebraska as well, but they are just so inconsequential in the landscape of college football that it is hard to hate them as much as the blue bloods.
Now that the B1G has pretty much done away with the old school rivalries, I really wish the conferences could get together to schedule some compelling games in September and November. I want to see games like Iowa-Tennessee or Iowa-South Carolina in some setting other than bowl games. I want to see the northern teams have to play in southern heat and the southern teams play in northern cold.
Don't you know if ISU plays well in a loss to Iowa it automatically reverses to count as a win?

My hatred started back in the Bo days, but recently they have not even won a division since 2004 yet they still act like they are part of the "Big 2". There is no Big 2 anymore. There is only a Big One. Ohio State. At least OSU earns it on the field.
OOC - Notre Dame
Too good to join a conference? They should never get to play in the CFP if they don't win a conference. I get tired of everybody always making an exception for Notre Dame.
Dishonorable mentions
I am ashamed to say that I do not like the service academies. Army, Navy, AFA. I know, how can any American hate the service academies?
They just seem to be an odd fit in today's FBS. To be competitive, they have to run old option offenses that require chop blocks at the other teams knees. The women's teams are so small, they can't field teams at the Div 1 level. They just seem better suited for an FCS non-scholarship football league like Drake plays in.

Hate is a strong word, but in the Conference it was either Minnesota or Wisconsin, now I have to go with Nebraska. Out of conference I would like any other opponent than Iowa State. Iowa would never schedule ISU if it were not an in-state school forced by state legislators many years ago.

If you were coaching Army or Navy and you played ND pretty much every year, wouldn't you want to design an offense that attacked the linemens' knees as well?

I stopped hating teams...I'm just over it. No energy for it. They're not what I imagine they are anyway. But never liked Miami, FLA. But there are some coaches that I've never been fond of...sometimes that translates to the team.
Not a huge fan of that PSU Coach, Harbaugh, or Brohm, Todd Graham, Bobby Petrino, Butch Jones (wow kinda long list there)
Coaches that I like and by extension I sorta like their teams......sorta
David Shaw - Stanford
Kyle Whittingham - Utah
Pat Narduzzi - Pitt
Steve Addazio - BC
Grudging Respect for Saban and Meyer and Pete Carroll and Patty Fitz

Michigan State with Darth Vader for coach!!! And Oregon, those overrated pretenders with the weekly fancy Nike pajamas.
Brohm? I have always enjoyed him.
