The NCAA's stupid rule of penalizing teams who partake in excessive celebration.

People who mindlessly boo every call against their team.

People who boo when OFFENSIVE players go down thinking they are trying to slow the pace.

People who dont know the difference between NFL and college rules. This is REALLY common on this site and it annoys the shite out of me. It comes up regarding things like possession, catches vs non-catches, ability of the defense to score on two point conversion attempts, etc. How the frick does any self-respecting college football fan not know that you only need one foot down for a catch? Or that pass interference is 15 yards and not a spot foul?

Oh, and people who still think the force out rule is a thing.

People who give you shite about your team, but don't actually watch football or claim a team of their own.

Stadium - crowd celebrations during player injury
Come on. It's one thing when the guy may have a head, neck, or back injury, but who cares when a guy has a cramp, sprained ankle, etc.? Those aren't life threatening and he will be ok. Go on and start a cheer.

My pet peeve is the stupid LIVE BALL penalty celebration rule that started in the 2011 season.

Pet peeve? Mine is watching a game at home and it's at a critical juncture in the second half, and the wife wants to talk about something that I have no interest in or that we've already discussed.

I rarely watch games at home anymore. My wife says I get too excited and always asks me to do something or talk about something in the middle of the game.

Also, she calls herself a "die hard" Ole Miss fan, but can name maybe two players, one usually being the quarterback. That's another pet peeve of mine. If you don't care that much for football just say it. Don't pretend you do just cause you think it's cool.

I'm working on it. She did better last year, but it's still easier to either invite people over our go to a bar to watch it.

My situation is different because I live in Nashville and here isn't many places to watch Saints or LSU. LSU is easier but the Saints are never on TV. So I have to stream that at home. And honestly, I've preferred watching LSU games alone the last couple of years. I hate not being able to hear the game at a bar.

whole offenses setting up, then looking at the people holding the picture boards on the sidelines.

to me, it reeks of pee wee league stuff.

It's definitely a trade off. Not to mention how expensive it tends to get.

Mine is when I'm watching a game I really care about with a large group of people and they think the game's over and insist on changing to another game just because one team is down 10-14 points.


If you really care, don't watch with so many people. Problem solved.
