God bless college football

Damn I love the fall! ECU-NCState! UF-UT! GT-MissState!

I woke up this morning and went for a run. While I was stretching and getting ready for my run I was watching ECU vs. NC State. It hit me then how much I love the fall, because of the college football season. I feel like the longer I'm out of college the more I love college football. Or maybe it's because we made a trip up to Eugene this year and had a recharge on the college scene. I feel sooo unbelievably disconnected from the college scene in California. As I went for the run I thought about how I didn't see anyone that had a college sweatshirt or t-shirt. I know that it can be argued that I'm in a town without a major school, but Cal is not that far. When I lived in the A on Saturdays there was no shortage of people wearing GT, UGA, UF, FSU, Clemson, USC (and not the Pac-10 USC), LSU, etc., etc. colors. Regardless of who else is into the scene here I love it! I was doing laundry and watching the UF-UT game and I was just soo excited. For me the thing that makes this sport so amazing is that though there are solid teams (USC, LSU, UF, UM, OSU) so much changes year to year. There are very few opportunities to have a long term powerhouse. I LOVE THIS SEASON!
