Arkansas State!OK, it is now time for me to completely turn my back on the Minnesota Golden Gophers Football team. I don't wanna just jump on a perennial top 5 teams bandwagon but I need to find a team worth rooting for...
Teams I have somewhat rooted for over the past 40 years as the Gophers floundered.
Ole Miss - Not sure why really, did go to school in Mississippi for a while but not at Ole Miss
Alabama - Before Saban -
Clemson - Going all the way back to the late 70's early 80's
Oklahoma - I really liked Billy Simms & of course AD
SMU - Eric Dickerson
Early nominees
Texas - I live an hour south of Austin, new coach, new start, only problem is everyone I know is a UT fan, that's no fun.
Oklahoma - Seems weird to have both UT and the Sooners as choices but Norman isn't more than a 10 hour drive.
Ole Miss - Seems like the easiest team to pick, have watched a lot of Rebel football over the years.
Tennessee - Too far to drive for gamedays really, I've never been a huge fan but I never disliked them and they seem to always have at least a chance, that's what i'm looking for.
EDIT: They also haven't been really good in quite some time so it wouldn't feel like jumping on a bandwagon.
Clemson - Probably the team of the ones listed I have rooted for longest but again much to far to drive for gamedays. Longshot
Any other suggestions? I will not pick another Big 10 team so don't bother suggesting Ohio St. or Penn St.

I just spilled beer on my nipple...
Dammit, I never said congrats on 10K... Well, I guess since I didn't say congrats when it happened i'll just save my congrats for 20K... Which I guess will happen sometime during the fall of 2019...
