Now, I can't claim to have disliked college football (I went to Florida State in the '90s and participated in all that meant), but my hubby and I were sitting on the couch last night watching our game, thinking about just how different our lives are now than they were back then. 100% sober? Check. Going to bed before the game is even over? Check. Toddler in his crib upstairs while we listen for any coughing over the monitor? Check. Yeah, none of those things were on the radar back then.... It’s funny that you posted this story on the same day that my husband and were having a similar conversation.

I also don't have the time, especially now with our son. My husband said that I should go to at least one, for the experience if anything. Well this is my last year and I have yet to plan to attend one. And really, I don't care too much for the sport. So eh... But maybe in ten years it'll be a different story.

But I think next year, I'm going to pick a winning team. My sister-in-law is from Alabama and my brother and she relocated down that way a while back. I think I am gonna start rooting for Bama.

We share season tickets with several other people (they are VERY hard to come by and require a significant donation every year). There is just something special about attending an OSU game at the Shoe. From the Skull Session before the game to the pregame show with Script Ohio, it still gives me chills...I love college football!

OU, OSU and UNC. I remember my dad telling me that if I went to OSU, I could sell my tickets for the football games there, and if I went to UNC, my grandparents would probably take advantage of my privileges as a student for basketball games. The basketball games I cared about, the football... I enjoy it, but I've never gotten into it the same way. When school doesn't overwhelm every part of my life, I'll probably be doing the same thing you are. Though Jon isn't into most sports, so whether or not he'll be hanging out with me is questionable... When I applied for schools two years ago, I only went for three. OU, OSU and UNC.
