How much did your football team affect your college decision?

Minimal.

I was already accepted into 7 schools (both flagships in state, Duke, Penn State, Cornell, and Florida).

I didn't decide on A&M until 2 months before I graduated.

If you could have gone to cornell or duke and chose A&M, Im mad for your parents.

Haha, if we're being really honest, at 18, Auburn football was about 95% of the reason I went there. The other 5% was for girls, but they would have been solid at other options too.

I love Alabama football, but couldn't turn down a full ride to Troy University. Can't let football sway a decision like that too much.

None. I looked at LSU, Arkansas, SMU, Ole Miss, and Alabama.

SMU's tuition was just absurd, and the rest of the schools were no better or worse than LSU. I got out of state waved for all of them, but it still wasn't worth going out of state.

I'm certainly going out of state for grad school though. 6 years in Baton Rouge is far too long of a stay.

Could have gone to the USAF Academy or Baylor, but my heart was in Aggieland from jump street due to the family connection. Had a family connection with the University of Michigan, too, but A&M was better for ROTC. Plus, it's too cold in MI

Football wasn't a factor in my final decision, but I'm not going to pretend that going to more Aggie games than I could count growing up didn't have an influence.

I'm holding out on college until we win a natty.

Grew up in Auburn, my mom taught at AU and both my grandparents worked there

So 0%

If you're basing your college decision on a football team, you probably aren't college material.

That said, I'm from Ohio and had other offers but Alabama gave me the best scholarship package for my undergraduate degree. '99 wasn't the peak of Alabama football anyway.
