re: Teams other than your favorite team that you like? And why?

Mississippi State (shocker I know). I have worked in the aerospace industry for 19 years now. I have spent a lot of time testing my company's engines at Stennis Space Center over the years. Extremely nice people, and that place has a HUGE contingency of State grads. They are so good at what they do, too. It's funny to find so many rocket science experts in podunk Mississippi in the middle of nowhere. And they all sound like rednecks that live on a farm. It's hilarious watching a guy with a dip in his mouth, and who sounds like Larry the Cable Guy, school some young punk with a $400k degree on rocket science. I've made a lot of good friends there over the years, so I find myself rooting for them.

LSU has a healthy representation there as well, and they are my 3rd favorite for many of the same reasons.
