Who would be your team? And why? I know...I know. It's kind of an off season thread. But this board is asleep or something.

UGA or LSU (family ties with both schools).

UGA too probably- grew up with relatives from Georiga who are big fans. So, they kinda root for us and we kinda root for them. I was quite concerned about my uncle after their SC game.

Probably Ole Miss I guess.

I grew up in the Delta just 2 hours away from OM's campus and have a lot of family friends who are alumni. Ole Miss was my second choice for college behind U of A.

Plus, I feel like I relate to Ole Miss fans more than any other fan base -- ton of success in the 60s and up and down since then.

So, RazorHawg... you'd root for an out of state team over what would be the biggest in-state program?

I mean, that's fine, but just curious.

I'd die right along with them Hogs. I can't imagine a world where I'm as fanatical about any other team/school than the Razorbacks.

I've tried. I can't.

I do really like going to rivalry and big games at other schools across the country, love the atmosphere of college sports. I've got family that played at OSU and SMU, but nothing touches how nutso I am about the U. of Arkansas' teams.

The difference in atmosphere between a Sun Belt game and a P5 game is enough for me to not root for them.

100% this. I think I'd stop caring about college football.

I have Baylor and UT degrees.

I don't root for them.

I'd be lost without the Hogs. It's in our DNA

I've got several cousins that graduated from Tennesse, one of them played back in the 90's. I'm the only Arkansas grad in the family. We've also got some married into the family LSU fans, they're not even graduates.

Honestly, I will root for their schools when Arkansas isn't playing them, but other than that frick their schools!

Same here. I've tried to like other teams and just can't do it. In all sports, the only non-Arkansas teams I've ever enjoyed following are the Cardinals in baseball and USA national teams. I even find it weird that I can't do it, but I just can't get interested in other teams.

I'm with you feral. Pretty much everything you said, plus I really love from Dixie with love. Even though it's been taken away from them.

Who cares if they are not graduates. A fan is a fan. I'm not a Grad of the youofA and damn to hell anyone who sticks their nose up at me because of that. It's all I have ever known. Knew the hog call before I even knew what I was doing exactly. Going yo games in my mommas stomach. My grandparents are graduates. Ad far as stAte..I mean I'd root for them but. Talk about a horrible campus. Town. Hell pretty much everything is sub par.
