I went to see Forfar v Albion Rovers this afternoon. Me and 400 other souls. Good match. Ref let the game flow (allowed a bit of arm wrestling in the tackles) very few free kicks. No Divas, no rolling about on the ground in “agony”, no chasing after the ref and whingeing. A pleasant afternoon.
Forfar 3 Albion 1.

Strong and stable my arse.

Clemson looking mediocre. Shows how short the cycle is in college ball (unless you’re Alabama).

There's a reason they're called 'the tide'.

Um, er, there's a difference between East Lansing and Ann Arbor. Wins for both though. Mind you the Michigan State v Nebraska game would have been much better to watch.

My mistake, well spotted oz..there is indeed a big difference between them, probably ten grand a year off the top of my head.

Hoooooooweeeeee! North Dakota v North Dakota State just means more. 9-7 to the Bison with less than 8 to go, but the Fighting Hawks have the ball at halfway. Best of all, ESPN are letting me watch the local ads. Banks, workwear and hunting supplies.

Nice game at Kansas St v Oklahoma in progress. Clever touchdown to Kansas from a running back called Vaughan who looks about Chairs height and stature. Anyway 27 - 17 to the sooners at the moment.

I like the Big 12. Like everyone knows it doesn’t matter so much so let’s play. Enjoyed the end of Texas Tech and West Virginny. Would love to go to a game at either (or Ames, Norman, Manhattan, etc)

I used to work for the massive four letter sports media company in the States and my primary job was to work college football halftimes and pre/postgame shows.

I’ve always been curious how those outside of the US view the multi-billion dollar “amateur” athletics business. It’s such a massive draw, especially in the southeast, but it has to be strange for those outside of the United States seeing kids 18-22 whose No. 1 goal is to make it professionally in American football/basketball also attend four year universities. It’s just so different from the academy system in the UK and elsewhere.

Yeah I tend to agree. No affiliation with any US colleges but I'm walking distance from Ryan Field so I try and get to at least one Northwestern game a year + a couple of tailgates, even if I couldn't name a single player actually on the team
