To get more of a warm and fuzzy feeling how about sharing who you liked on a rivals team even though you wished the institution ill. I know BSU has no rivals but growing up I could not watch enough of the Big-O

I have to go with Kellen Moore here. As much as I despise BSU I respect the kid and his ability to win games. He's also a class act.
One of the rules I live by: never underestimate a man in a dandy looking sweater.

Hank Gathers and Bo Kimble for LMU. I truly hated them teams they talked alot of trash and we opened the 90 season against them I think we were without 1-2 starters and still kicked the shiit out of them. Unfortunately Hank died 1 week before the tournament. Very sad!! They steam rolled people through the tournament and before the Elite showdown with UNLV they went on The Arsenio Hall Show talkin crap about UNLV saying they were going to wipe the floor with us and we couldn't run with them. Well UNLV beat them 131-101 and we could have beaten them by 40+ easily.

Nevada - Crazy Legs - Colin Kaepernick was a beast. Loved everything about him.
BSU - Bart Hendricks - Bart Hendricks caught, threw and ran for a TD in his final game. Gritty... dual threat QB.
Montana - Dave Dickinson - Awesome QB for the Griz... dual threat as well.
Obviously I admire dual threat QB's ... they just seem to be superior athletes to me... I always forget Air Forces' awesome dual threat they had - and they aren't a rival - but who was that guy??? Bo? Dude was a baller...

Here are some of my favorite MWC favorite players to hate.
UNM- Ruben Douglas & Dairese Gary: Douglass was a flat out scorer who would pull up from half court. We had an epic game against UNM his senior year that went into multiple OT's.
SDSU-Billy White & DJ Gay. White was just a dirty player who was a jerk. DJ gay was just clutch.
WYO- Josh Davis & Marcus Bailey: Just really really good teams that took it to UNLV a few years. Hope you guys can get back to that level.
CSU- Matt Nelson-That guy was a 1 man team.

Anthony Marshall: The most valuable player on that team who plays at Viejas East
Pierce Hourning: I'd love this guy if he were an Aztec. But, I hate him because he's not.

I am going to have to go with Des on this one. I played baseball with Bart when I was a kid, and he is one of the nicest dudes you will ever meet.

In my lifetime, the Bulldogs have been to 19 bowl games. They are 9 and 10 with wins agains the likes of USC, Georgia Tech (twice), University of Virginia, and UCLA.
During the same timeframe the Aztecs have been to 6 bowl games. They are 1-5 they have losses to such powerhouses as Tulsa, Navy and....wait for it....University of Lousiana LaFayette Ragin Cajuns

Hawaii - Timmy Chang/Chad Owens - I just loved watching those guys play
Nevada - Colin Kapernick - Just a treat to watch him slice and dice the UNLV defense
BYU- Austin Collie- Wish the kid could avoid those concussions
Basketball
BYU - Jimmer - Just a great player and nice kid. Hard to not root for him
SDSU - Brandon Heath - hated him but he was a lot of fun to watch, small kid but a real keg of dynamite
New Mexico - Danny Granger - Great player, maybe the best pro the MWC has ever produced
