I like Wofford. I've followed them for a few years now and I've always liked the triple option anyways, as well as their terrier mascot. I hope to visit the campus one day, I hear it's really nice!

App. State
Delaware
GSU

Cal Poly
I take a good deal of interest in Villanove, Richmond, Wofford and a lot of others as well.
I can not root for them over conference mates when they play though because it is all based on liking them due to a healthy respect for the teams so MSU, EWU, Weber, etc...all fall in that group as well.
I also like Montana. I watched and taped the '93 UD-UM playoff game. The atmosphere looked great and the UM TV guys weren't jerks.
Yeah, that freakin' game was really something. That was the beginning of a trend. When the Griz lose in the playoffs it is usually by a very slim margin that rips your heart out cuz you were so close.
The number of 1,2, & 3 point losses is pretty high. Of course there was that game in Macomb, IL where we had the living shit kicked out of us but most of them are similar to that Delaware game.

Shit.
Neither team could stop the other. It came down to a late missed extra point of all things. If that game had gone OT the score might have been in the hundreds.

I'd be a fan of Montana- but I'm just more jeleous because they always seem to beat us.. but I love Wash-Grizz, and the location of the campus.
Looking forward to seeing them again this year in SLO.

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
If you've ever seen me on AGS, you know I'm a fan of Montana...but if they weren't in the CAA I'd be a fan of JMU. The '08 playoff game was great (spare the fans...not just the student section) and I thought the campus was pretty
Well back in High School, me and a friend of mine always said "We're gonna play football for coastal." I ended up not going to College when my job offered me management and he went to Averett. After a year at Averett he transferred to LIBERTY. I followed him at Liberty (before they were so good) so now I still follow them.
I don't live to far from UNI, so I'm usually happy to hear they did well. Although if we don't get our crap together and start winning some of those games one of these years they may start to loose my well-wishes.
As a Philadelphia Eagles fan, I've always had a special place in my heart for tortured fanbases, in particular those of teams that get so close so many times but just can't get it done. In that regard, I pull for UNI when no one is looking, and when they're not playing da Hens of course.

Coastals program is only 8 years old. You must be young.
I was there Pre Football and graduate when they were in thier 3rd season.
One that's not so secret and doesn't go over very well around here is Montana.
I get nasty looks when I work out in my Griz shirts or shorts. I've even had to explain to people that I donate to UNI, have season tickets to UNI, and do a lot of volunteer work at UNI.
I just happen to love Missoula, know a lot of cool Griz fans, and have family out there.
