Finally...we can start talking college football again. The off-season seems soooooo long (unless you are a basketball and baseball fan...which I'm not).
I sometimes ask myself why it is that college football is the one and only sport I follow. Why is it we anticipate this time of year so, so much? Why is it that college football seems to have something other sports just don't? Why do other sports seem to not even compare?
I found the answers in a Rivals February 2009 article. I don't necessarily agree with the order but I challenge any other sport to come up with a better list.

I would add that NCAAF has pre-season and post-season controversy like no other sport, and the hysteria and passion associated with the sport (whether you are at the game or watching it on a 9" B&W) is second to none.
