Who gives a rip? BMS decides to dump a bunch of confetti. So what? Was our team supposed to go hide in the locker room and not celebrate?
I don't have a problem with our rivals laughing it up. I'd do the same if it were one of them. But some fans of other schools who are posting these memes on Facebook have made me chuckle. Like the Kentucky fan who was gleefully posting all the memes. Kentucky!!
I also think it's interesting, for lack of a better word, that a lot of our opponents are showing their ignorance by posting memes with the BaB trophy. As if that's the only trophy that's awarded for a regular season game. Several of the memes have actually stated something to that effect.
Apparently they're forgetting the Golden Hat that is awarded to the winner of Oklahoma/Texas, or the Jeweled Shillelagh (USC/Notre Dame), the Floyd of Rosedale (Minnesota/Iowa), the Victory Bell, the Old Oaken Bucket, the Bronze Boot, the Stanford Axe, the Territorial Cup, the Golden Egg, the Fremont Cannon, the Paul Bunyan Trophy (Michigan/Michigan State), the Wagon Wheel, the Old Brass Spittoon, the Silver Spade, the Legends Trophy, the Governor's Cup (which is awarded in several different states between the winners of the land-grant school rivalries), the Milk Can, or the Iron Skillet...need I go on? Hell, Notre Dame gets a ceremonial trophy for almost every regular season game they play. A little perspective would do these internet doofuses nicely.
