Since the other thread was mostly pro football, we can talk college here. Who is your team? When is their first game? What is your outlook for their season?
The Huskers play Florida Atlantic on Aug. 30. We should have a pretty good season. We have an outstanding returning running back, an improved offensive line, and a much improved defense.
My son will be attending the University this year. He actually got a student season ticket even though he isn't a football fan. Hope he will enjoy it.

DH went to Michigan so we are big Wolverine fans. We also follow my college - Fresno State. They aren't as fun as watching Big 10 football.

DH got his Master's at Florida, and I'm a die-hard Gator by marriage. We're hoping this year is better than last!

Huge Florida State fan! We have season tickets and have traveled many mile to see my beloved 'Noles play through good and bad. That being said, we are scary good this year. Our running game is going to be untouchable and that combined with Jaboo under center again will make this season amazeballs! I am so ready to get this party started!

My "team" is a Division III team here in NYS. My nephew played and is now coaching at Alfred University. He is a GA and was actually asked to take over as the "JV" (for lack of a better word) team as head coach this year. He declined because he's working on his master's degree and could not do both.
Go Saxons~~
As for D1....NC State has a special place in our family (Cousin played there) but other than that..I just like to watch most teams.

HUGE Gator fan here. I graduated from there, my dad graduated from there, my step-father, uncle and a handful of other family members graduated from there. And while it matters not one iota to me any more, my ex graduated from there also. But as I mentioned in the other thread, my precious baby child, who was raised better than this-is leaving in about 1 month to go to LSU. We, my ex (who also a huge Gator fan,) and I don't know what we did wrong.

Grew up in Detroit and was a Michigan fan all the way. Been living in SC for the last 30 years and have become an even bigger SC Gamecock fan. Our first game will be Aug 28 vs. Texas A&M. Go Cocks!

My West Virginia Mountaineers will open against Alabama. While we should be much improved over last year, we won't be "Alabama good" by the opener. We hope to keep it close for a while and escape that game relatively healthy, I think we will have a good season. A blowout with a lot of injuries? Turn out the lights, the season's over.

Are you going to any games this year? We are trying to figure out which game(s) we will attend. I can't wait!!!!!! Nothing like a Carolina game at Williams Brice!!!!

Another Carolina Gamecock checking in. I received my Masters there and my third son is returning as a sophomore this fall.
USC (the east coast version - ha!) is entering the season ranked number 9. Go cocks!

Go cocks! Yep! Hubby got his Bachelors and Master's from USC! I already had a degree but took some art classes at Carolina when he was getting his Master's.

I think I would break my fingers before I cut a tuition check to my rival school #whispersuniversityofflorida.

My 11 year old DS just went to football camp at UNL and the players were the coaches. He didn't necessarily learn anything new, but he had such a great time! Living overseas is hard when we want to watch games as they are not always on The Armed Forces Network. My dh gets the Big 10 Ticket online so we do get most games that way. Love me some HUSKERS!!!

I grew up in Tallahassee and went to middle/highschool at the school that is associated with FSU.

Alabama Fan here, obviously not a die-hard fan since I didn't know who our first game was with until this thread!
Since I live where The Tide Rolls you would think I would have known! Apparently I've been more distracted than I thought . . .

Gamecocks!
No idea what the team's outlook is, but I believe we will have a new starting QB. And that about sums up my knowledge of the team. My husband and youngest daughter are the diehard fans in this house. I'm just a USC graduate who's neutral about football in general.

We are Michigan State fans, and my DS goes to Michigan, so there's that too. I'm not sure about the upcoming year, but I still have a smile on my face from last year. Can't do much better than beating Stanford in the Rose Bowl to end the season.

You don't think he'll just scalp them for beer money? That's what all my friends at UNL did. I should maybe start another thread for college football widows. I'm not a fan, but DH is already having in-depth conversations with friends about UT and A&M's lineups and such. When the season starts he's useless on Saturdays.

We could scalp the really big game tickets (think UF/FSU game) for almost enough money to pay the rent for the month. We would go to some of the games, but honestly, selling those tickets were the key to beer money for the season.
