So if you watch any of the games who do you root for? Hometown teams? Your current school or where you went?

One of my best friends roots for Notre Dame because his father is an alum and I am currently watching them dismantle Navy. I have become a ND fan just being around him a lot, but it's fun to root for a team that has a lot of tradition behind them. I have also followed a few other teams mainly because of friends who have gone to some different schools. Michigan State is one, and they just beat Boise last night.

Who is your #1?

Not a big college football fan, prefer the pros. Though I am a fan of Ohio State and watch the rivalry game against Michigan every year as a sort of tradition.

That's cool though. Who do you follow for pro football?

The Bengals, being my home team. Aside from them, I have a soft spot for both the Saints and Falcons, the latter partially because I have ties to Georgia so it's almost like they're my second home team; liking both of those is odd because Saints and Falcons are division rivals and the fan bases typically hate each other and the other team. >.<

Well I am from the Buffalo area... and I am sure Nathaniel will understand... so that means I am a Bills fan. We will see how they do. It's been several disappointing years needless to say. Not that being a Bengals fan is any easier. They have had quite a rough ride too.

My other team besides the Bills has been the Packers. I really like watching Aaron Rodgers play. If the Bills once again can't do anything in the end I will be rooting for the Packers to win it all.

Oh yes, I've spoken with Nathaniel many a time on football-related topics, and the Bills have come up often. I hope they can make a turnaround as well soon; I actually liked Ryan Fitzpatrick when he had to take over from Carson Palmer after he got injured in a year we'd like to forget, so I rooted for him when he took over for the Bills. As far as the Bengals go, we're getting there, or so I hope; we probably have the worst owner in the league right now, we need someone who's not so stingy and stubborn all the time. I think we have the talent, and the coaching staff is adequate, so I think we should hopefully do fine in the coming years.

I'm currently at FSU, planning to go to a game sometime in September. I have not been to one yet, and I'm looking forward to the whole experience.
Of course, I'm going to be super crazy drunk, which will make the experience that much more enjoyable.

I hope Notre Dame loses every game they play for the rest of time.

I'm actually not a big college football fan, but it was fun to see Baylor do well with RGIII last year. I hope he has an awesome career in the pros. I'm more of an NFL guy, and I love the Seattle Seahawks. It's been a long, tragic, frustrating love, but I love them anyway.

I won't think of college football as a real sport until they implement the playoff, and even then it's too limited to be of much interest.

I hope Notre Dame loses every game they play for the rest of time.I feel that way because they stole coach Brian Kelly from Cincinnati. :(

My favorite team is the Stanford Cardinal. They're playing Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day.
