Do you think anyone in the state of Alabama expects Auburn fans to feel like they ought to be obligated to root for the University of Alabama in sports? Do you think Alabama fans feel like it is their birthright that everyone in the entire state ought to be Tide fans? But that attitude is regularly exhibited by Razorback fans. "We are THE University - of the entire state. Anyone in the state of Arkansas who does not root for us is just flat unpatriotic. It's their duty as a citizen." I run into that mind-set regularly. Indeed, it permeates the power structure of sports in the state. AAAAAAARRGGGGHHHH!!! And then they can't understand why some of us have such a deep-seated distaste for Fayetteville.
