It's jealousy. A lot of it is because we physically beat the crap out of them for so many years. And part of it is that we were able to do this with our lack of advantages, and they weren't.
Still doesn't make a lot of sense, though. Be mad at the programs with built-in advantages, not the overachiever. Is what it is, and really it is a compliment in a way that we still russle so many programs. And not just the fanbase, many actual programs still have some chip on their shoulder about us. We have sucked for over a decade, and they still like to circle our game on their calendar. We are 20 years past having a sniff at a nat championship level squad, and still relevant and hated by many. Kind of impressive in its way.
