Watching the bowls always makes me try to remember all the college teams I’ve seen in person. Best I can remember, it is…

Auburn
Alabama
Arkansas
Florida
Georgia
Kentucky
LSU
Miss State
Ole Miss
South Carolina
Tennessee
Texas A&M
Vandy

UAB
Jacksonville State
Samford
Troy
Alabama A&M

Florida State
South Florida
UCF
Florida-Atlantic
Georgia Tech
Clemson
Costal Carolina
The Citadel
Furman
North Carolina
NC State
East Carolina
Wake Forest
Appalachian State
Western Carolina
Virgina
Virgina Tech
West Virgina
Penn State
Pitt
Rutgers
Boston College
Buffalo
Syracuse
UConn
Cincinnati
Louisville
Western Kentucky
Southern Miss
Memphis
UT-Martin
UT-Chattanooga
Tulane
La Tech
UL-Monroe
Arkansas State
SMU

A good number of those are from when they played Auburn either in a regular season game or bowl. Some are Bham Bowls (I always get free tickets), while the others are from being on business trips and working it out so I could go to a game while traveling.

I may not have as many years as you, but likely a similar number. I was an LSU season ticket holder for 38 years and attended many Tulane games starting from my grammar school days. Since moving to Miami in 2005, I’ve attended several Hurricanes games each year, as many of my family members are UM grads.

Couldn't tell ya. Born in '83, I remember my dad taking me to games as early as '88-89. No telling who all I've seen over the years.

My first college fb game was in 1958 as an 11 yo. Many of the teams listed in the first post I’ve seen but I decided to mention those who no longer exist. Wichita State, Pacific, and Fullerton State. I’ve also seen Ft. Benning football team, an honor probably few can match.

That’s a lot of games. I’ve been to Bama games since 1992, but here’s something I can beat most on that my dad and I wanted to accomplish, and I don’t think it will ever be down again. Possibly Georgia might.

I’ve been to the NC game at the big 5 and saw Alabama won all 5.

1992 Sugar Bowl win - Bama vs Miami.
This was my first game as a Kid.

2005 - Rose - Bama vs Texas

2013 - Orange - Bama vs Notre Dame.

2015 - Fiesta - Bama vs Clemson

2021 - Peach - Bama vs Georgia

That's an impressive list. I'd like to think that I've seen more over my decades, but I'm not sure I can remember them all.

I know I can start out with the entire SEC, old ACC and Metro. Throw in all the bowl games. Throw in the old independent days vs Notre Dame, Pitt, SoCal, Nebraska, Michigan, WVA, Va Tech, et al.

I dunno, I'll have to really sit down and think about it.

I did that one time making a list of all the girls .... decided I was a man schloot after hitting 100+ .... couldn't remember all the names. But could remember the places.

Maybe that'll work for football games as well.
