Getting into College Football; What Team to Root For?

Great college players, they struggle in the pros when they don't have hillbilly police forces and coaches to look the other way every time they should be doing 5-10 for armed aggravated assault. That poor kid Urban Meyer's TE killed might be alive today if it weren't for the SEC sweep everything under the rug to raise the crystal football in February policy. That stuff flys in towns like Tuscaloosa and Gainesville, major NFL cities... not so much. Who's the best SEC player in the league? Cam "Oops was that your Laptop" Newton? He can't even lead a petty theft ring let alone an NFL team to a title let alone 3 titles.

I guess Peyton Manning, Patrick Peterson, Arian Foster, Matthew Stafford, Eli Manning, AJ Green, Julio Jones, Jerod Mayo etc. all no longer exist. I'm not even gonna argue the fact that Tom Brady is obviously great, but let's not ignore the fact that not many Michigan players have won CFB awards or have done well in the NFL since Brady.

Now this is false.

I almost don't want him to get banned because this is gold.

And while it is fun to see Shiz admit truth about Michigan, we're done with this...

Back on topic.

Other than that I really don't care what you do. In the end you'll probably wind up enjoying college football more than the NFL.

Gronk, do everything Watson told you not to. And add even more on by following:

Just to upset him more. Plus they could be fun to follow this year. Be Watson's rival. Embrace the hate.

You can't go wrong with picking a local team, so for you it would be maybe Maryland, (which in a year will be cool because of the Big 10), or Penn State/VTech, however if you want a flashy team with a ton of fans and at the same time a team that epitomizes tradition, you can't go wrong with Michigan. Michigan embodies the 'tough, blue collar' attitude that you seek in a team.
