They had a great year last year, fighting to get into a bowl game by winning their last three games and then had to face Nebraska who brat them down earlier in the season. But they fought hard and won 19-7. This will be a team that will not give up and hang with any team they play against.

Love the Huskies uni's.

I agree on Mississippi State.
-We have one of the best young HC in the nation.
-We sell out every home game.We have plans to expand the stadium in the next 3.

-We have a big SR QB (Relf) who will run over you and improving his passing a lot.
-A great DL, great secondary, young LB.
-Good OL, Great RB, Good young WRs.
-We compete against the big boys (LSU, Alabama, Auburn).

I had to go with an SEC team because I got tired of having multiple undefeated seasons in the Big 12 and ACC without getting into the National Championship game

I've been a quarterback ever since. [I'm going to be a jr. in high school next year] I could have went the hometown route, and liked Indiana, but I mean, come on. Just try to find a team you can relate to, and go from there.

That's a great story of how you came to follow Michigan, would have loved the chance to play American football growing up. Did have an oppourtunity a few years back to join a team over here but due to football/soccer and athletics commitments had to pass.

Now I have just turned 21 and last year tore my acl (surgery schdule hopefully within the next month) and a lot of cartilage within my right knee, chasing after a meaningless ball. Which also ended my 100m dreams running a sub 11 second time.

Boise State are they the college with the blue field??

Yes, Boise has the blue turf

Love that stadium, also the video is pretty inspiring.

I heard the college games have a fantastic atmosphere.

Who ever I end up choosing I won't be disappointed judging by the reaction from you guys.

Looks like it is going to be one from-

Mississippi State (spelling will take some getting used to)
- Great selling points from MSU124 especially no conference championship since '41. May enjoy this college the most.

Washington
- Love the uniforms and MrJ2006 points about fighting hard and not giving up is something my football/soccer team relates with.

TCU
- First suggestion from Roggie, currently having stadium renovations (great selling point) and another team in which I love their uniforms.

They are the three unless anyone mentions a sleeper, now to do a bit of research into history.

Thanks again for the suggestions, I'll let you all know my choice very soon.

Just a few more as food for thought:

Eastern Michigain- Worst team in the League (As of now, just went 0-12)

North Texas- Getting an awesome (Why is E-P-I-C become ****?) new stadium, are nicknamed the Mean Green. Also play in Texas, which helps recruiting.


Nevada- Have a navy/white color scheme, run an entertainig pistol offense.

Hawaii- One of the most explosive offensive teams in the nation.

Out of your above 3, I personally like TCU best, but that's just me (Who refuses to root for any power-conference school)
