Cognitive dissonance defined: Miami wants to beat Ohio. Miami cannot beat Ohio in hoops or football. Miami offers a litany of excuses to ease the dissonance (Too cool to care, Ohio is not a "real" rival, Miami's a hockey school, etc.).

I guess RedHawks can't reach high-hanging grapes either.

This article sums up the attitude nicely:

I hope they keep refusing to recognize the rivalry.  It'll be great whippin' their arses every year.


We will get by.
We will get by.
We will get by.
We will survive.
