Besides UCONN, who's your favorite football program....

I don't follow any other FBS team, it's Huskies all the way.

But I'm all-in on the Trinity College Bantams. I live in Hartford, can see the top of the chapel from my loft, and my daughter is an alum. It's great to see a "Little Ivy" with non-scholarship players field a great team year after year. I'm the crazy man watching choppy internet live streaming of Trinity vs. Wesleyan. Fear the chicken!

Due to realignment, I hate every "P5" school and every team that could potentially get an invite before us...which I think leaves me with the UNH Chargers since I got my masters there.
 
Army because West Point is cool. Sacred Heart Univ because we're friendly with the coach.

Penn State. Parents met there, Grandmother lived in State College so we went out there 4-5 times a year growing up. Plus she had season tickets on the 40, 15 rows back so I got a game of my choice each season. After the Joe Pa thing I soured a bit on them but the reality is, it's in my blood to cheer for them.
 
FSU fan since the late 80's. I like watching Bama, Michigan State, Stanford, UGA, OU, among others but I don't consider myself a fan of their programs.
 
Ole Miss as it is my brother's school.

I have been to a few Yale games and have always rooted for them unless they played UCONN.
 
1)Grew up 20 minutes from the Bowl back in the day and saw many Yale games in the end zone cheap seats watching the likes of Calvin Hill.
"So IMO 40,000 to 60,000 is realistically possible for UCONN football......"!!!
2)Any G5 playing a p5
3) C.U. (after working/ moving to Colorado). Boulder-great venue, Ralphie, ...go Buffs....
 
UConn will always be my #1. I watch every fame that I can, and have traveled home or away for just about every big game (bowls including Fiesta, ND)
Penn State. Moved to SE PA 13 years ago. My daughter is a freshman, and plays lax there. I bought season tickets this year so that we can see her while at school. 100K classy diehard fans at every game with 21K in the student section (argument for on-campus stadium in the future in Storrs). Tailgates are awesome with parking lots open at 7AM for any start time that day. Great experience.

Since the Big East split, I don't watch many games aside from UConn, let alone root for any of em.
 
Here come the Irish. Born a ND fan. Did not become a Husky until 18.
 
Ohio State.... I live just outside Columbus and I can only dream of having the experience once with Uconn that I can get any game day down at the "Shoe".... What true college football should always be like even if the fans are obnoxious.

South Carolina. Just so I can say "Nobody Licks our 'C0cks"

Remember my TV interview for the bowl game? "They're all polite people down here. (Cue fan in front of camera). "Except for all these fans that keep walking in front of the camera. I don't get it, I just don't like !"

After UConn:
  1. Notre Dame (my brother's school)
  2. Arizona- lived in Tucson (Cactusdog) went to games at U of A. Really enjoyed the PAC10 atmosphere.
  3. Fresno State. My favorite giant killers. LOVE the helmet. Any system that doesn't provide a program like Fresno a fair path to a playoff berth is a POS and deserves to be brought down by violent revolution!!!

Don't kill me...but Notre Dame. Grew up in a very Irish family and have very found memories of watching them with my dad on NBC every Saturday afternoon.

I grew up with dad watching the Fighting Irish on replay every Sunday with Lindsey Nelson doing the telecast..........60's-70's. But when I drove out with friends to South Bend for the UConn-ND game I was a Husky fan no doubt in my National Flag Blue.
