My late wife of 48 years was a big Tiger fan, but had no concept of what was happening on the field. She had no idea of the difference between a QB and a DT, but she loved the Tigers and cheered until she was hoarse for our team. Miss her so much.

My mom went to hundreds of Auburn games, but I don't think she ever really had more than a cursory understanding of the game. She enjoyed the spectacle, but hated getting caught in traffic and would insist on leaving early, no matter what was going on on the field. Drove me crazy until I was old enough to tell her to go on, I'd find a way home.

My wife had never been to a game, at any level, until I took her to her first one. Her opinion of college football and its fans was pretty low, but I go her hooked. She may not know all the positions or rules, but she's pretty darn perceptive and definitely into it.

My wife during a random conversation about football at a party invented a new position. Tight back. She was totally serious. But she is known for malapropisms.
