Allowed to root for UGA?

On another forum, they seem to have a problem with people rooting for schools that they did not graduate from. That's **** and I have lots of problems with that. I went to UGA and did not graduate from there. Does that mean that I can only root for them the 1st half of games? Following "their" theory, no child is allowed to root for any college team until they are enrolled.
If this is the case, I will say that more than 80% of Alabama fans would have to give them up as their team.
Thoughts?

I think it's silly. I graduated from UGA but that doesn't mean I'm more of a fan.
SEC football teams are more avatars for their states at this point than anything else
I can honestly say I've never heard anyone tell someone that.
I guess there's always a first.
If only people who went to the schools cheered for those schools, college football wouldn’t command the attention it does.
Well I for one love asking condescending Bama fans what year they graduated. Usually shuts them up.
If you did not graduate then you're just a sidewalk fan. That's all you are. Hang it up. Delete your account.
On a serious note who gives a chit? People have too much goddamn time on their hands to ponder this type of shite. Probably a bunch of miserable fedora wearing fat bastards that sit on their fricking phones all day looking for a reason to feel superior to regular people, frick them. They're gonna die alone with nothing but their UGA degree hanging on their wall because their children hate them
If that was the case, Auburn wouldn't have any fans.
Can't be fans of pro teams unless you work for them in some capacity. Just how it works
Fan police are the worst people on earth. Root for whoever you want lmao.
You from LA?
Unless you walk a mile in their cleats you can never really understand what it's like, so you can't really be a fan. In the end we're all just...observers with feelings
I grew up a Dawgfan. Always wore Dawg gear. Always had a "G" on my front license plate.
I don't even want to tell you where my degree is from (Georgia did not offer a degree in my chosen major).
Flurda?
For some reason, this has been an Auburn dig at Alabama for years. I guess since popular opinion is always against AU they have to come up with this stuff.
NO, SIR!
I'd have sooner explained to my father that I didn't need college than go to Florida.
Snobs gonna snob
