This thread is not for the Alabamas or the LSUs of the world. Neither for the tOSU or the USCw either. All 4 can bring it to an exceptionally great degree.

This thread if for those who know AT BEST, we MIGHT win a championship this century.

What the hell inspires the Georgia Tech fan to get excited in August? What gives Washington fans hope? Why do Notre Dame fans still HAVE hope? BYU? Central Florida?

Do Pitt fans really think they have a chance? Rutgers? Kansas?

Why do we follow the Mississippi States of the FBS and continue to hope for a miracle?

Historical Edit: All of the above will win a FBS Natty this century, except Rutgers and Kansas. And since Kansas will win uber-multiple Basketball championships, it sucks to be a Rutgers fan.

As a kid I loved going to Colorado. So, I became a Denver Broncos fan.

Now, if you know pro football, and you are as old as me, the Denver Broncos of the late 60s and early 70s SUCKED. They were affectionately called the Donkeys.

But, what fun it was. I then decided to go to school in Colorado at a small engineering school. Talk about partying on Sunday when you know your team is going to be bad. It was so much fun.

Then, 1976 happened, then 1977 happened.

Not only were we partying hard, but the donkeys were actually winning and going to the Super Bowl.

Moral, during the bad to horrendous years a passionate fan base is forged. When the good years come, it is a LOT of fun.

I used to be a cutter until the latter 00s rolled around. Found a new source of pain to fill my days since. It works!

Because there is always that one in a million chance.

I literally have no opinion on this one in college football.

Now pro sports teams i can relate to as i pull for the usually hapless Panthers in the NFL, but thats another forum and thread.

As a GT fan, we always have a small hope of either beating UGA or winning the ACC.

You don't have to do anything special to post a youtube video. Just copy the link and paste it into the box without any formatting and the forum will take care of the rest.

This is factual.

I believe LSU's rabid fan-base was built during the dark years of the Archer/Hallman era.

to answer the op's question.

I have no idea why people pull for Michigan, and actually feel excited about them in August. I mean, really what's the best they are going to do????:noidea:
