2. Colorado Buffaloes

This one is for obvious reasons. Mel Tucker came over from Colorado after coaching the Buffaloes for one season and, well, their fans were not happy about it. Heck, they’re still replying to each one of Tucker’s tweets with comments about how much of a snake he is or how he led his players astray with lies.

Colorado fans have made it very clear that they want Tucker to have no success in East Lansing, so what better way to shut that talk down then going into Boulder and coming away with a big win. And then the Spartans can invite Colorado back the next season for another battle in East Lansing in Tucker’s new home.

We know that the head coach doesn’t dwell on Colorado fans who have trolled him relentlessly, but he would also love to beat his former program and the fans that “hate” him now.

If Tucker wasn’t a good head coach, would Colorado fans still be this upset two months after he left the program?
