Unless I have been living in a parallel universe and those teams have had one winning season and no bowl games in 20 years, I would say no, they do not share our pain.

I would agree; but as BCS players, their anxiety may be greater since they have fallen more in one or two years. Unfortunately, we have been conditioned to our dilemma.

Ouch.

Traumatized not conditioned

Our record has traumatized us, not made us acclimate to losing. Every botched game makes it hurt worse.
