I went to UT for grad school and they're the only team I really consider myself a fan of. But I follow a lot of schools for different reasons.

LSU - best friend in high school went there and I went out to see him a few times for football games and had a great time.

ASU - Brother went there and as a high school sophomore I went out to Tempe and it was AMAZING. The amount of talent on campus was just mind blowing.

Rice - Sister went there. Nothing really great about them but I've followed them since.

Cal - Mom's alma matter. I came home from the hospital in a Cal Bears onesie outfit.

SHSU (Sam Houston State) - gf went there and we've drive out to see a few of their games since it's a lot cheaper than going to Austin for Texas games.

edit- well okay, I kinda still pull for Pittsburg. But only because I'm a TIgah fian. I have many teams I am an anti-fan of - Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Florida, South Carolina, USC and Notre Dame.

Alabama first and foremost. Fan for life and attended undergrad there.

Mississippi State has become a 2nd. Currently in graduate school there.

Being number 1 follows me around.

Went to Alabama for a few years and transferred to Appalachian State. Father and grandfather are Bama boosters so I've been going to games since I was a wee lad. I go to App games every now and then but more often than not I make the drive for Bama games.

ETA: Also root for Mississippi State when they aren't playing Bama as their success benefits a family member.

The teams that I'd call myself a fan of are Clemson (graduated there) and LSU (grew up in BR).

At the same time I pull for lots of other schools for different reasons. I'll pull for:

-GT - Dad went there
-Arizona - Gf went there
-Stanford - Idk why
-Oregon - I eat up their marketing hook line and sinker

And many more depending on their players/coaches.

Oregon, then Texas.

alumnus of both schools.

ETA - Dad went to clemson, so I pull for them from time to time. Mom went to Bama. To hell with Bama.

1. Louisiana Tech - undergraduate degree from there and go to all games and follow them very closely

The rest I will pull for

2. UL-M - got my 150 there - if there is not a home game in Ruston, I am usually at UL-M's games - great times in the grove - good friends

3. Texas - born in Austin, lived in Austin and Houston

4. LSU - I go to one lsu game a year to hang with co-workers, friends, etc. but I don't get emotionally tied if they or Texas have an off year - pulled for ulm over lsu earlier this year.

I'm a Wisconsin fan. Graduated from Wisconsin.

I wouldn't consider myself a fan of Boston College, but I follow them. Both of my parents and my sister went there.

Edit: I'm getting my Masters at Loyola University Chicago, so I guess I'm a Ramblers fan, too. Although it is difficult to follow them. They're in the Missouri Valley Conference. Pretty boring and their basketball team sucks.

Grew up a Notre Dame fan because my father is from Indiana and we always saw their games on TV. I follow LSU and FSU because that's where my kids went/go.

Ohio State - Nearly my entire family and extended family on my dad's side and some on my mom's are Ohio State fans, and so are almost all of my high school friends. I have never attended the school.

Ohio - I went there, but since they literally have no short at a national championship ever, I just like to see them do well in the MAC.

One. And yes I attended.


Past that I may root for a team for a game or two, but it's never lasted past that.

I have a buddy that busts my balls all the time about me rooting for UGA even tho I didn't go there.

UGA - grew up watching them
Arizona- most my family went there. I went to their basketball camp as a kid. My grandfather was newspaper editor there.

I root for UGA in football and Arizona in basketball.
