Who Loves College Football

[Mickey'sApprentice]

Who would guess there would be so many North Dakota fans out there?

I've actually seen North Dakota play.

They played in the Division II National Championship back in the late '80s that was held in Florence, Alabama. I was playing in the University of North Alabama band at the time.

One year, ND played SD and Tom Brokaw walked past the band.

A lot of college fans, this should make it fun once the games start to listen to everyone before and after the gfames

We're on the Wonder on the 11th which is the Bama/Penn State game. Gonna be a tough game for us. DH was whiny last night that he wasn't going to be able to see the game. I assured him we would be able to watch it. He's like we never get normal main channels I had to tell him that Disney owns ABC. And that they get Espn in the Bar. I've even offered to skip dinner that night since we would miss part of the game. I'm such a good wife.

Ohio State Buckeyes!!

My husbands family is from Ohio! We are all HUGE Ohio State fans (Stuck in USC Country) My DH, his Brother and their Father fly out to Ohio every year for a game, last year was the USC game, this year they are going to the Miami game!! Looking forward to watching Pryor tear it up this year!!! #2 in the pre-season polls!!!!!!

How are you other Big Ten fans feeling about adding Nebraska and a championship game???

I do not mind adding Neb., thought Missouri would have been a better fit. Do not think much af a championship game, make the regular season less of as important.

Where is the ACC love? We are diehard WOLFPACKERS from North Carolina State University. Do we love college football? That would be a big YES. We have season tix and at the end of Oct, we play FSU on a Thur night. We will go to that game, fly out Fri morn to Dallas (have family in Waco). We will hit 1 or 2 games on sat depending on game times. Definately going to the A&M/Texas Tech game and maybe Texas/Baylor. We then have to spend that Sun watching the Cowboys (I am not a fan but DH and DS are). Aside from all the college football, DS-10 plays pop warner so we also have his games every sat from Aug 28-Oct 18. My poor DD-9 who does not love the sport, is so over it. She spends a lot of time with Nana in the fall.

Baseball household here. So after the World Series, when they's only football on, college and pro, it's when I catch up on all my chores I didn't do during baseball season. Love to play football, but just can't watch it. Don't get the "running" game, but the darn ball in the air and get some yardage.
Hail Mary is my favorite play.

 

[Uuaww]

Time to bring myself into this convo, Go California Golden Bears. I am anti all things SEC, mostly due to the entitlment that most of their fans feel they deserve.

Will if you get a chance watch Purdue, we are know as basketball on grass. Pass, Pass and more Pass. I hope our new coach Hope remembers this, he did not last year and we were not very good.

Also watch Mountain West Conf., a lot of passing there.

 

[GrumpyPOTFH]

Will here at last. Starts this Saturday Purdue vs ND at ND. Will be there bright and early in full Black & Gold. Love the give and take between us, really love the ones that can not take the take. Have several place to hit at ND's campus before the game. Should be fun. My Purdue is a 11 point underdog, not a problem lay the bet, we will not only cover but WIN.

Curtis Painter must have used up his good passes while at PU, since as a Colts back up he's the worst QB in the NFL.

GO IRISH!

WOOOOOOO PIIIIIGGGGGG SOIEEEEEEEEEEEE RAZORBACKS!!!

Arkansas girl here!

Married to a Michigan Boy who has a brother at Purdue.

Love college football Saturdays! Nothing better than fall weather and football.

At least there are two of us!

Go Hogs Go!

This could be our year (hope springs eternal!).

And how many IU quarterbacks currently hold a position of 1st, 2nd or 3rd string QB on an NFL team for the 2010 season is there....... Enough said!!! We know you are anti Purdue.

Painter is young, still learning and will grow again this year, as he did last year, watching and learning under Peyton.

Grumpy - Got all the Purdue game gear out and freshly washed and ready for the game. DH has his ND gear ready to go. DS said he's going to sit between us on the couch and hold the remote for safe keeping. Told him not if he put that god awful new maize and blue t-shirt his uncle sent him.

You dont have to support Painter just b/c he went to PU. If you watched him in the Colts games last year or the pre-season he's been pathetic.....and I'd say that if he went to any college in the country. He just flat out stinks. Although it has been fun reading the PU fans try to say how good he is on the Colts message boards.

PU fans are like Cubs fans....every year will be their year until they actually start playing games and the reality of the regular season hits them and they realize they are average at best.

Did watch him the other night and John Gruden and Jaws had plenty of postivies to say about his performance and his continued growth under Peyton. Both said that he still had some learning to do, but he had improved over last year.

Haven't yet had the NCAA come knocking on our door looking into our programs for rule violations and all that good stuff. Maybe we have been average at best, in your words, because we don't cheat, bend the rules and call it gray when it's really black and white. Maybe in the last 10-13 years we would have risen to the top, IF every other school in the nation had the same attidude as those at Purdue who are in charge of getting players to come to our school.

And if ever the day comes, when Purdue is looked at and found in violation, you can bet your bottom dollar, I will be one of the fans saying to the university - how dare you tarnish the name and reputation of those who came before you, for a championship. If you can't earn it right, you don't deserve it.

The truth is he was not that good at Purdue, I could not believe he even made a NFL team, must have been very cheap.
