    I am beyond ready. 

    Season ticket holder for the past 10+ years.  My wife and I have 3 seats, front row of the Black Hole.  That picture is from when San Diego lost in Oakland for first time in 13 games, and it was also my son's first game.  Been thru thick and thin, ready for new regime to bring some fire. 

    I plan on tailgating to games I make it to, others I sell, and I consider the offseason of football tailgating practice.

    Go Frogs!

    My wife says I have to give up my Horns gear since TCU officially moved into the Big 12, but I say Hook em as long as they aren't playing the Frogs.

    Awesome pic.  You start em' young man.  Will soon be planning trips to Busch Stadium for Cards games with my son, just turned 5.  May even take him to Soldier Field either this year or next.  For now it's Minor League Cardinals games at the local stadium.  My son is done around the fifth inning, and tickets are cheap.    

    Bucket list is taking dad to South Bend, IN to see ND and "Touchdown Jesus".

    It's the number of post season games they're eligible for.

    It's also the countown clock til the next NCAA infraction is discovered, lol.

    His first game is that picture, he was 16 months, and free entry.  My daughter will be attending her first sometime this year at the exact same age.  They're 2 years 4 days apart, so the age works out about the same.  I have some friends who have tickets and have brought their son since he was three, haha.

    It is fun times.  I remember growing up my dad watched hockey, and casually watched football - I never went to games though.

    I live about 5 minutes from Williams Brice stadium and I've learned it sucks being a fan of a diff rival team when you live in that city

    So I'll agree with your list but I'll assume USC means south Carolina ha

    Yikes, I think you "bucky fans" scare the crap out of me this year because I am getting married on nov 17th . . . the day we play you guys (bucky aka wisconsin) at Camp Randall !!!  I hope its not a night game.  Anyway, I am thinking urban's new offense can start hot as braxton miller is the perfect fit and our D is bada$$ - but I am predicting a loss or two this year on bowl probation setting up a great 2013 season for the Buckeyes and Urbans new recruits.  I just have a good feeling the Big Ten is back with osu and michigan recruiting top 5 classes again . . I live for this!

    I tell ya, you gotta wonder... Will SEC west win Again? Or is the run over and a SEC east team slips in.

    Ok, let's face it, if you are from a conference other than SEC, you gotta be tired of this.

    Wife is an OU grad ..... Which means I am an OU fan. - yes I am.

    Would be ok with a non SEC team getting a championship. ... Long as it's not the longhorns. Don't really have to worry about that though, they only win one every 40 years or so ..not really a powerhouse.


    Thinking about now, probably good that we are anchored for the night. I think some of those other boaters might be drinking.......

    UT. (Texas). Is a great academic and research institution.

    But their football team is one of the most overhyped, insignificant programs out there.

    Look at a span of several years, 7 wins is a normal season. It is amazing, the quality of their recruiting, yet the results they produce.....

  • Thank goodness there is Football on the horizon:

    I am in the process of rebuilding with the Longhorns (still two years away it looks like) and then there are the Cowboys(sigh)....what can I say! Jerry Jones said he was going to pattern his team after the Raiders and sure enough he has...

    they display a "Continuing Commitment to Mediocrity" like Al Davis took the Raiders to for years...

    I figure another 8-8 season and I have season tickets!!! I am paying for this c#@p...

    Rockwall Texas, just east of Dallas where the humidity and heat meet! Life is too short to get caught in the fast lane behind somebody slow!

    Texas has one of the most winning histories in college football. It's just disappointing they always rank very high in recruiting but aren't a commensurate powerhouse.  Mack Brown is a very good recruiter, but coach, not so much.

    Huh? Share some stats... How do they compare to miami, USC,OU, Alabama, Lsu.

    Sorry, don't consider them in the category of winning seasons. Hell there once in 35 years championship was a gift from Pete Carroll.
