Sundays just remind me how much I like the atmosphere of the college game. Sorry Texans and Cowboys fans.

Agree

NFL is blue collar

College football is white collar

almost hockey season

Never thought about it that way before. Makes sense though. No wonder I can't stand the NFL.

It's more than that...
You have kids playing their hearts out for their school and fans instead of a paycheck.

Troof

college is white collar?

in relative terms, perhaps

Dave, you have to get past SEC ball where you have townie t-shirt fans...and in Austin

Ice soccer.

How much longer til baseball is over?

Really? C'mon jefe.

77-7: Miami/Savannah State.

52-7: Miss. State/Troy

76-0: tOSU/FAMU

72-0: Louisville/FIU

59-3: Iowa/Western Michigan

56-0: Wash/IdSt

70-7: Baylor/ULM

54-6: FSU/BethCook

Think about this: Baylor beat a team 70 to 7. And that wasn't the most lopsided score of the day.

Or the second most.

Or even the third most.

College football has way too many ****ty games.

Yeah, this is pretty naive. Nice thought though.

Just not the case anymore at most major schools.

Unless your talking about Division II or III then you are seriously misled. The kids at major college football programs are there in hopes to make it to the NFL and dreams to make their own millions.

I never considered one blue collar or one white collar. I've always preferred cfb because it's more fun to watch. You know who the underdogs are going into a game and anything can happen. Even if it isn't your team it is still fun to watch. With nfl you have one or two teams that you watch (unless you play fantasy football)

I think that college is more green collared

get past it and get to what exactly?

Of course the pro game has more talent and parity. I'm talking about the NFL atmosphere being low-rent (fans, gameday experience, etc), and its a big reason why i prefer the college game to the NFL.

This. When was the last time an nfl game was this lopsided? The Texans lost 30-9, and that was considered a blowout. That's a close score in college football. College players aren't playing for thei school. They are playing to make it to the nfl.

The fans in Seattle, houston, philly, Denver, Baltimore, New England, and plenty of other cities are just as passionate as college fans.
