20 Reasons why college football > NFL:

I especially like numbers 1 and 15. And 12 of course, as I'm in a college marching band.

My teams are Pitt and Ohio State. Not such a big Notre Dame fan. And of course, as follows, my least favorite are Michigan, Penn State, and especially West Virginia. And currently Michigan State- yesterday didn't go so well, looks like the season might not go so well all around, with the exception of OSU doing well. <_<

very nice!

I've always enjoyed NCAA footbal more than the NFL, but I could never put my reasons exactly into words. The tradition and loyalty are definitely at the top of the list.

The Auburn victory over LSU was amazing. That game was as evely fought as I have seen in a long time. Two superb defenses shutting down two good offenses. Thankfully my team won but no team really deserves to lose a game that hard fought.

that one play was interesting. The "pass interference" call. Some argue it should have stayed, but the ball was knocked out by another Auburn defense, so it's not like they got screwed over, at least not like the Sooners...

In both the Auburn/LSU and Oklahoma/Oregon games the teams that wound up losing still had their opportunities to win in spite of the appropriateness of the calls and they both still lost.

I dont know if that's true for the Oklahoma/Oregon game. Oregon doesn't get awarded that onside kick, Oklahoma just has to run the clock out.. maybe by just kneeling down.

But Oklahoma still had the lead after the bad call and all they had to do was stop them. No matter how bad the call it wasn't a call that caused Oregon to take the lead. It only allowed them another opportunity.

I still think the situation of the call was much harder on Oklahoma that the call in the other game was on LSU, but in the end both teams had an opportunity to win and didn't.
