Alabama
I KNOW MANY OF YOU ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO FOOTBALL SEASON. WELL, HERE'S A LITTLE RECAP OF LAST YEAR......... Coincidence?? Just wondering! Alabama beat Arkansas and they fired the coach. Alabama beat Tennessee and they fired the coach. Alabama beat Auburn and they fired the coach. Then Alabama beat Notre Dame and the Pope resigns... Damn, I wish the White House had a team.

Think Alabama could play against POTUS's alma mater, whatever it really is, and that would count??

This is a funny thread. People with education are so passionate about their colleges. I think that is awesome! I guess I get to pick a college when the kidlet picks one! She had better NOT go to Berkeley! I may just die.

Shotgunner,football is big business here.Texas A&M is the lifeblood of our county.Over 50,000 students,a small college,Blinn,with over 12,000 students,lots who transfer to A&M. 90,000 fans on gameday.Our stadium is being expanded to over 100,000 in the next couple years.I was fortunate enough to have all 4 of my kids graduate from there. The campus is 15 miles from my house,they lived at home.Probably 30 relatives did, My wifes nephew went to tu,Berkeley at Austin,the only longwhorn in the family. So I'm kinda biased Iguess you could say! The rivalries are very strong,lots of bullsh#t slung back and forth.Lots of fun!! Last year was our first in the SEC.Look forward to building new ones in the future! I know Alabama and LSWHO will be gunning for us! snuffy

I have a good friend went to Kansas State. So during football season, I have a purple wildcats hat and I wear a purple t shirt and we drink a lot of beer and yell at the TV. lol I gotcha on the bullsh\t!.
This summer we gonna road trip to the gay bay and self tour some campuses. Stanford (maybe!?!?!?), Berkeley, UC Davis are three she is zoning in on and I really want her to see Berkeley and learn she really won't fit in at all. But she has to see it, not hear it from dada. I guess I really am done raisin' her. She makes good decisions and is real aware of the world around her. Now I just kinda nudge her and see where life takes her.
Thanks snuffy! Go Aggies!

I'm not keen on any particular college or their sports teams, so I can pick on all of them with equal opportunity:
Why is the GT football team like a possum? Because they play dead at home and get killed on the road.
How do you keep a GT player out of your yard….Put up goalposts.
How do GA Tech fans count to 10? 0-1, 0-2, 0-3, 0-4….
I don't care who you are that's funny right there! Let's see, who's next? Jean

Oh, you want some more, do you?
Georgia Tech plans to get turf next year…they said it will keep the cheerleaders from grazing at halftime.
Why do Georgia Tech football players like smart women? Opposites attract.
What do you call a pretty girl on Georgia Tech’s campus? A visitor!

Hate to put the big ten here but Buckeyes are back. Urban Meyer coaching and we are off bowl sanctions. Undefeated last yr. Can't stand the Tide (because they have been so good for so long) only thing I like was the Browns getting trent richardson a yr ago. Rooting for your aggies snuffy in the sec until they play the bucs in the national championship. Ha!!! Can't wait to see what johnny football does this yr. Freshman heisman winner - how do you top that? Jean - love the GT disses. We have the same thing with michigan Can't wait for the season to start Bill

Thanks, snuffy and Bill. Still waiting for James' thoughts...
I think it's great that y'all can get behind a college team, rah rah rah, sis boom bah! SDSU has pretty good football and baseball teams, but like I said, I'm not too much into college ball. It used to be I looked forward to football season, and cheering on the Chargers. Not so much anymore, since they've pretty much sucked the last few years. I just can't take the stupid plays and heartbreak anymore. Jean

Jean,I believe college football is taken more seriously in the southeast,although I know other parts are serious about it too. A winning athletic department means so much in terms of donations by former students,etc.Admission applications rise after a successful season.Lots of the states in the SEC only have 1 or 2 major colleges,and no pro teams.About the only game in town!

The only game town - LOL! Yeah, I got ya. And I understand what the sports programs mean to those colleges. And of course, they are the nurseries for the big leagues. It's just that I've seen some pretty rabid fans, some of them get pretty fired up! Jean
