So I’ve never been that interested in college sports in general.

Wondering if anyone in these forums is a hardcore supporter of a certain college?

I live in California where no one cares about college teams whatsoever - and I can’t get behind those cream sickle orange uniforms and the fact that Manning played at Tennessee; and Vanderbilt is just mehhh ...

Randomly picking the Georgia Bulldogs ⚫️ to hopefully get me into following more college.

Anyone else out there a Dawgs fan ?

THE University of Tennessee

That’s right, Titans and Vols.

I live a joyless sports existence.
 
Not hard core as I am the NFL but love that of UT Volunteers got to root for the home town team.
 
Wouldn't exactly say Im a college fan, but the first major sporting event I ever went to was Army v Navy. And it was a lot more electric than most NFL games Ive attended.
 
Penn State. I watch the games that are on and follow the players, but I probably spend 5 or 10 times as much time following the Titans.

Most college games are more electric than NFL games.

agreed. I hated to admit it, but there is so much more passion in college football...

Student sections and the crowd as a whole alike... People will get hoarse and sick even (cold games) yelling and screaming to bring up the decibel level...

NFL can't even shine a light to it -- and that's not counting weak fan based teams...

The NFL has done a lot to make their games family friendly. But Id call a lot of NFL playoff games electric.

Title games for the home crowd after a win is pretty damn wild.

There is more of a connection to the community with college I think. Plus, teams do not move.
 
In college, one loss and you need help to win it all. Two loses and you're done. NFL you can be champions with as many as 7 losses in the season. Each game just means more in college that why folks super amped in the games when the two teams more evenly matched.

Born in Georgia- dad played basketball there and my mom was a majorette. Grew up in house cheering for UGA. But I've lived in Alabama for all but one year of my life. Lived in Tuscaloosa for few years- my family went to Alabama. Cheer for both teams. Honestly don't care who wins head to head as long as they can be national champs.
