Wake me up on Sunday












Mr. Rhett has been down on college football for a long time for a number of reasons. I'll let him handle those reasons at a later date, but I'm starting to agree with him for one reason of my own - it's boring.

If you went to a big-time football school and have fond memories of your years there, I can understand rooting hard for your team. Other than that, for me, college football has totally lost its appeal.

Knowing the NFL is tantalizing close makes it hard to get too excited about the college games. College football has its moments, but most weekends there are a million games being played, half of them on TV, and only a handful really matter.

College football Saturdays are to NFL Sundays as a hamburger is to filet mignon. Sure, the hamburger is tasty, but the filet mignon is exquisite. Every NFL Sunday is a national event that offers excitement no other major sport comes close to matching in the regular season. The players are so good, every game is so big - it's impossible not to love.

As for college games ......................................................................................................sorry, dozed off for a second..
