I’m not surprised at all that the college game is preferred over the NFL. In fact, I would have been shocked if that wasn’t the case.
Everything about the college game is better, outside of the actual talent on the field. The stadiums are bigger, fans are more passionate, traditions have been passed down over generations and nothing beats a monster college game.
90,000 Florida fans sang Tom Petty’s classic “Won’t Back” against Alabama, and it was beautiful.
If the clowns running our country had their way, none of this would be allowed. The stadium would be empty.

I’m not kidding one bit. There’s nothing on the planet in the world of sports that beats a loaded college stadium for a huge game.
More than 106,000 fans are at the Penn State/Auburn game, and it’s beautiful.
The idiots and fear-mongers trying to keep people in their basements forever lost and they lost in a huge way. pic.twitter.com/Ct3x3nYJdN

Don’t get me wrong, I also love the NFL. You can catch me watching my Lions every single Sunday, but the emotional swings and hype are unmatched when it comes to the college game.
If I had to choose between the Badgers or Lions, I’d choose the former 10/10 times.
