Oh, College Football...

I have recently (in the last year) discovered my love for college football. My dad thinks I am absolutely insane, but I really do like it! I guess not going to a big school with a football team stunted my passion, but now that I have started watching college football, I just can't help but love it!

Here the deal: I love watching the NFL, but I think that some of those guys get these big contract deals, and then give up. They play only well enough to keep their spot on the team for the following year. In college ball, the guys play because they love the game. Most of them will get to play while they are in college, and then they won't get to play again. The NFL takes the best of the best of the best. And there are so many great players in college football. They aren't (always) playing for money, and if they are it is for scholarship money. I am all for them playing for scholarship money because I support them going to school.

The tough part is figuring out which school to cheer for, since I don't have a team that I feel really connected to because I didn't go to a school with a football team. I guess that I pick my favorite of the teams that are playing.

My picks for today's games:
Rose Bowl - TCU
Fiesta Bowl - OU

Watching the game tonight with friends (and the guy)! :)
