NFL or College football Fans

[peekay]

Anybody on this forum follow NFL or American College football?

[TartanTerror]

As one of the yanks I do follow the NFL and college. Grew up in New Orleans so I pull for the Saints. My college team is Texas A&M (not much to cheer for in the last 8 years or so).

I'm a dolphins fan So i can't wail til next Sunday. Just started watching college football having espn America for the first time, did anyone see the LSU - north Carolina game? They just wouldn't quit!!!

Used to follow Miami a great deal in the Shula / Marino time.

I now just sort of check the score and leagues but not much else...

Philadelphia Eagles fan here. Looking forward to the NFL starting on Thursday

I used to play Americvan Football in it's height of popularity in the UK late 80's early 90's.

Was massively into it back in the days of Jim Everett, Joe Montana, Dan Elway, Jim Kelly, Dan Marino ect.

Used to be a big Rams fan and college team would be Texas Tech as I have friends who live in Lubbock TX.

Texas Tech looked alright last night. Tuberville has that Potts-Leong connection up and running. Big yards and points in that. Players are probably just happy they can't be locked in a cupboard anymore. And I think Tre Porter might turn out to be a stud at corner.

Big game of the weekend is tonight. If the Broncos go to Landover and beat VA-Tech then they should go unbeaten, which could see them in the national game come January.

I went to college at your arch rivals - University of Texas Dont have an NFL team yet. I find college football more interesting than NFL. Now I live an hour from Pittsburgh. So I have been following the Steelers. Lived in Nashville for a couple of years when I came to US. So I have a soft spot for the Titans.

I'm a LSU Tiger and we need to get rid of Les Miles and Gary Crowton straight away they can recruit but can't coach. UNC had 13 SUSPENSIONS and we still couldn't put them away.

Crowton was **** at BYU and Oregon after starting well and he's doing the same thing at LSU he needs to go.

I'm also a Dolphin fan and I think we will win the AFC East, no problemo.

If two BCS teams go undefeated Boise State won't make it, which is a strong possibility with Ohio State and Oklahoma.

[Hollowman]

Obviously if two BCSers go unbeaten then Boise won't get there. But Oklahoma? Not on this week's showing. Nowhere ****ing near. They've got to go to the Cowboys, and they have the Longhorns in Dallas. Hell, they have FSU next week and Ponder will shred that secondary.

Ohio State and Bama might go unbeaten. But Bama will probably play Florida twice. Although, that looks like a walkover if Saturday's game at the Swamp is anything to go by. I think the Canes might knock of Ohio next week though. Pryor will have bad matches where he makes bad decisions.

I'm not sure about the intricacies of college football yet so i'm not sure who I support, although the espn 30 for 30 film about the Miami hurricanes makes me wanna root for them but I must admit I was rooting for North Carolina, having that many players out but still playing like that made me think of Istanbul!!
I hope the dolphins do well, let's hope Henne can be the QB that we need.

Also has anyone been watching Hard Knocks? Rex Ryan seems like a good guy even for a Jets coach!!

Bears fan here. DA BEARS! Was looking forward to the season what with the Bears getting Peppers and having Urlacher back on Defence. But it seems from pre-season that the Offensive Line is just muck and can't give Cutler any protection. I really thought that Martz would make a massive difference as his aggressive style should suit Cutler. But it seems there are bigger problems over at Soldier Field. Looks like it might another season of disappointment.

[Hollowman]

They've hilarious cut half their draftees from last year too. And, bizarrely, Dan Lefevour, even though they have no meaningful cover for Cutler.

Oklahoma State is the big hurdle for OU to clear, Texas won't do anything this year and please don't overrate FSU especially with Jimbo Fisher as coach.

When was the last time the U won a big game like this? You really thimk that Jacoby Harris is a better QB than Pryor?

Bama won't run the SEC table two years in a row, no chance.
