I think with college the connection felt to the team is different. The fan went to school there, or worked there, or a relative went there. People feel a loyalty to the team because the team represents a significant part of their past experience and/or who they are. With NFL, the personal connection relates directly to just the game itself. (speaking in generalizations here)
I can see the college connection being a little different. But growing up rooting for the same team your whole life is a pretty good connection with a team too.
the nfl sucks. if it wasn't for my degen gambling habit I wouldn't even watch that garbage. bunch of criminals in pads
You really think the NFL is that bad? I know you've said that the NFL product is garbage, but isn't it the best of the best from college? The level of athlete in the NFL is pretty damn good. Sure, each has their own issues, but nothing gets me more excited than an NFL Sunday.
Love watching NFL RedZone on Sundays, since the Lions suck. But if I have to pick one it would be NCAA - college football Saturdays are the best. Go Blue!

Well, obviously the RichRod experiment was a huge failure. I choose to look forward!
But if you want a sweet blast from the past, check this out:

Yeah, I really do. College has more games, better rules (except for the knee down rule), not as many stoppages for reviews/commercials, better announcers, and every game means something (which will unfortunately be changing due to the playoff system). In the NFL no one even knows what a catch is or how to tackle someone without getting a penalty. Goodell singlehandedly ruined the league....it really is a shit product. Especially monday night football on espn. Horrendous.
the NFL is watered down, overhyped, overofficiated, overproduced garbage. Plus the league is full of criminals like mike vick.
I wouldn't watch if I didn't love betting on games so much.
