To me college football is so much better. I have always gotten into the games more and cared. More than one loss and you're not making the CFP. In the NFL you can be 8-8 win your division and host a playoff game. Especially in Louisiana there are a lot of people who don't care about the saints and vise versa with LSU fans. So who do you care more about?

NFL if I had to choose.

I prefer to watch superior athletes. Still enjoy both.

College and it isn't close. NFL is a better product in terms of talent and coaching obviously (despite officiating) but college has so much more passion to me. It is pure nostalgia talking when I say this though and I admit that.

NFL has always felt sterile and boring to me. Saints games are awesome, but they are the exception, not the rule.

And while rampant transferring is starting in college, it is still mostly a lifelong commitment to play for only one team. In the pros, your best player can play for you division rival the following season.

College

As much as I love football, the NFL is becoming almost unwatchable.

The quality of football is far, far superior in the NFL, but I love college football so much more because of the pageantry. The actual football is inferior but the product is so much more fun.

Saints over LSU: key players are around more than 2-3 years

College over NFL: I think the game is just a better product

I rarely tune in to any games on Sunday.

Religiously watch college games during the week and on Saturdays.

I just love watching football so I watch both.

If I had to pick one I'd pick the NFL though because I have been watching it devoutly longer than I have been watching college football

I love them both, equally. One weekend, college is better. The next, the NFL is.

During the season it's definitely college. However, between bowl games or NFL playoff games it's the NFL. This year is a little different since LSU is in the natty but in general I switch during the post season. Sounds odd to say that too.

College football was better before it become a corporatized NFL developmental league.

College easily for all the reasons other posters mentioned. It consumes my life in the fall.
