College football fever has officially hit me!

Moooo · 07-19-2006, 02:39 AM

Okay, so before I go to bed, I thought I'd start a thread on probably the funnest sport to watch (IMO), college football. I know its a long ways away still, but I've got the fever, and I gotta talk about it!

First off, everyone who has a team should list it, if its not in your avatar or something (or you have two or so). Also, if there's any team you can't stand, let it fly, especially if its uncharacteristic (i.e Huskers fan who despises Syracuse, or something).

I don't think this is any special team for my favorite, Tennessee, but I will look forward to the third week in September when they play Florida.

I also am looking forward to watching a WVU game if I can see it. I loved the Sugar Bowl last year, it was IMO a funner game than the Rose Bowl (but the Rose Bowl obviously had higher stakes).

And hopefully, the Auburn Tigers will fall flat on their faces! Maybe taking their FB was like taking out the last block in Jenga or something!

Anyway, please post your thoughts on the upcoming year, and tell me what you're looking forward to seeing!

Moooo, who is now in bed

hmmm...not sure which team I like.

Uncharacteristically, I strongly dislike Miami, FSU, Tenn, Georgia, LSU, Alabama, Notre Dumb, Tejas, and USC.

This season will be exciting nearly every week considering that we have Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, FSU, South Carolina, LSU and Auburn all on the schedule.

I'm looking forward to Spurrier's return to the Swamp for some payback as well as revenge in the Swamp against 'Bama. Also I plan on making my first trip to Jax for the Largest Cocktail Party in the world (the Fla-Ga game).

For the 2nd consecutive year I'll be out of town during homecoming week and unfortunately, in complete stupidity, the athletic dept. scheduled LSU as our homecoming game.

I'm a ksu guy all the way but hoping ku also make some noise this year. I hate mizzou texass miami va tech. Can't wait to see marshall vs. ksu this year i think it will be a good game.

Rich Rodgriguez really has WVU playing well. They return alot from last years Sugar Bowl team, too.

Ahem...didn't they change the name from "Worlds Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party" to something a bit more PC?

University of Central Florida here. I despise Florida, Miami, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Texas, Nebraska and Michigan.

hmmm...not sure. But even if they did, it wouldn't stop me from calling it what it is

**Bugeater** · 07-19-2006, 08:31 AM

I hate Notre Dame. I hate their golden dome, I hate their touchdown Jesus, I hate their logo and I especially hate that little leprechaun queer that runs around their sideline. I also hate that the media is already in full Notre Dame salad-tossing mode even though they got their asses kicked in a bowl game they didn't even belong in last year.

Here are some worthless predictions

Championship Game- Florida Vs. Oklahoma

Dissapointment of the year- Kansas State basketball team

Sleeper of the year- Arkansas

Heisman- AD of course

You will all know ____ by the end of the year- Stephen McGee (homer pick)

As for my favorite team, the aggies, I predict 9 wins (including bowl). They will have a good shot at winning in Austin but Coach Fraud will screw that up.

I hate their fans. I hate NBC. I hate the "Notre Dame rule" in the BCS.

I love the fact they haven't won a bowl game since 1993 (8 straight bowl game losses).

milkman · 07-19-2006, 08:41 AM

I don't really follow any team specifically.

I'm fairly pleased though, that I will be able to watch a littel more this year than I have been able to over the last four years.

I might even go out to watch Cal Poly.
They are supposed to be a good team this year, with (I think) four Div 2 preseason All Americans, a couple of whom are supposed to be legitimate NFL prospects.

Fran will be gone at the end of the year. The bundle of sticksgies will suck once again.
