In its latest college football “hate map,” Reddit’s subsection /r/CFB revealed state-by-state which team receives the most vitriol. And strangely enough, the oft-beleaguered Virginia Cavaliers earned the title of most hated team in the state of Virginia.
The findings within Virginia aren’t likely a product of the football program’s on-field successes, or lack there of — only two winning seasons in 10 years — so the assumption is there are other factors causing vitriol toward Mr. Jefferson’s university (or a ton of Hokie voters out there skewing the results). The Cavaliers received 33 percent of the total votes for the state, followed by the Virginia Tech Hokies at 14.
