The Puppy Bowl posted:I like football and I've grown to like college football, but I don't have a college football team. Who should I root for this year? Florida. You are a Ravens fan and they gave you Tebow, slayer of Steelers. edit: Also, with our coach we will either win 11 games or lose 11, so its fun!

Oh if you're into cool rear end old man coaches you can join me on the KSU bandwagon, there is lots of purple and it is sick as hell, beatin up on cupcakes and them dirty Jayhawks and (hold on let me check this spreadsheet) Mizzou I guess? Also you get to periodically make UT fans real sad so that kinda owns There's also South Carolina for old man cults of personality

I'm going MSU because I do like defense and it was the first response with the obvious exception being if they ever play the San Diego State Aztecs whom I'll support by saying go Aztecs while they play games I will almost certainly never get on TV. I was tempted to go Auburn here but the thought of getting attached to Sammy Coates only to watch the Ravens pass on him in the draft next May is a little to painful to bear. So yeah, go... Spartans!

I want to say that UNT's loss to UT wasn't that bad, cause we got paid a lot of money to take out their quarterback, but if he's gonna retire from football I feel kinda bad. Sad thing is I'd still take his concussed carcass over both of our overthrowing nimrods.

Make sure you complete the steps in the path to true college football fandom by visiting your chosen school's main blog to get a proper hatred of your fellow fans, and bone up on any historic state-wide disasters to properly understand all the jokes being thrown at you. Congrats on your new chosen team/school and let me be the first to say that you're literally the worst and your team is awful and is full of cheaters and scumbags. Welcome!

Taken from the hail mary video posted earlier. He admits to not being a Michigan fan but I wouldn't be surprised if it was bred from other UM fans. Also the math doesn't exactly work on that. I had a Vandy fan say something similar to me like that once. I just called him a nerd and laughed it off but I thought my friend was going to kill him, and he's a ND fan.

The Puppy Bowl posted:Oh, yeah. That feels like home. Look if you're gonna irrationally attach yourself to Sparty then you better ride or fuckin' die with them. Like you know they've got a big game AT Oregon this week and you need to be as heartbroken as every other Spartan fan when they manage to piss way a 10 point lead because Marcus Mariota hits Byron Marshall for a 36-yard touchdown to win as the time expires. Or you know some poo poo like a phantom OPI call on Michigan State, that's a Michigan State as hell thing. Here are reasons college football is better than the NFL 1) the atmosphere at a college game is all about the connection to it and not to the New York Giants Pregame Party Sponsored by Pepsi or whatever 2) the variety of offenses. like Chip Kelly is old as hell and everyone's like "yup seen it' by now especially out at the farm in Stanford. But it's still fun as hell to watch that and then you have the Air Raid down in Texas and Rich Rodriguez read-optioning his way to a bowl game at Arizona. Oh yeah, the pistol? Made that out in Reno. You also have Urban Meyer reinventing the spread up at Ohio State. Meyer didn't invent the spread but he sure did perfect it over the past decade. Then you've got the service academies and those ironic Luddites down at Georgia Tech running the triple option 3) upsets! there's nothing *that* exciting about the Jags beating the Patriots or whatever. I mean sure it's impressive but it's the NFL and it's boring. But when an undefeated Top 10 team goes down or loses to an FCS team (been there, dammit)? It's the best! 4) A general sense of fun. The NFL is boring as poo poo these days and I'm not talking about 'they don't play defense' or whatever. Like it's just watching some methodical down-the-field poo poo and wow there ya go again Tom Brady threw a touchdown. Plus, the NFL just stands behind the shield and their sponsors. College ball? Hell, just grab on for the ride as you watch some C-USA game where no one can tackle

LeeMajors posted:God, Miami fans are the loving worst. The ones I saw in college were nasty, just as you described. They combine the worst elements of New Jersey and south Florida culture into a horrible amalgam. Then there are the rich hangers-on on the fanbase's periphery who are alright. Emron posted:I can see us dropping a game or two this season, but I've been wrong about that before--and it's not like that's a bad thing. It's really great to be a fan of a team that thinks the possibility of a loss is a bad thing. Alabama's recent run of success did lead to a moment of defeat proportionate to that success (see below). Miami declined. Southern Cal declined. Florida declined. Les Miles is still doing his magic show. Alabama will decline, at some point. Anyone who endured the Mike DuBose years appreciates how good things are right now. As long as Saban stays in Tuscaloosa I can't see them doing too badly.

SpiritualDeath posted:You must prepare yourself with this quiz, then. Completely forgot how bad some of these were. It's one thing to make a dumb move that costs the game, but MSU's fuckups used to come in rapid succession with the next one being worse than the last. It was amazing how quickly they'd fall apart. It's been nice to have a stretch without any of those games (knocking on every piece of wood in the house).
