My alma mater discontinued its football program in 1985 (UT Arlington).
I use Florida Atlantic in my post because no one else does, and also because one of its branch campuses was instrumental in saving Winter the Dolphin (Dolphin Tale is my favorite movie). The team sucks in football (I joke that they lost the game because they stayed up late saving a manatee the night before).
As far as real college football teams, I've become more of an SEC fan in general, as it is essentially the NFL Development League. A&M is my favorite SEC team since they are the home state team (and because I've grown to dislike the Longhorns--whoever decided burnt orange was fashionable should be tortured), with LSU being second because it has a real tiger mascot with Mike.
