My Take: NFL or NCAA?

Posted on 1:38 AM by BDM

Having been actively involved in college and professional athletics over the course of the past three and a half years, I've had a chance to see both sides of this argument. Each of the levels have their advantages; in college, the game seems more fun and is definitely a more emotional experience, while in the pros there is definitely a feeling that the players are some of the best athletes in the world. It's a very tough call, but I'm going to have to go with the NFL.

Look, college football is great. You can't beat some of the rivalries that just permeate through some fan bases - Florida-Georgia, Ohio State-Michigan, Alabama-Auburn...these guys just HATE each other. Not to mention that anyone can pretty much beat anyone on any given Saturday. But you can't beat the NFL when it comes down to it. You have 16 games to prove your point, then you go to the PLAYOFFS (hint, hint, BCS Committee) in a sudden-death scenario where you have a chance to go to the Super Bowl, the biggest football game in the world. Hard to top that.

Hopefully this year is great for both college football and the NFL (and it is definitely shaping up to be a classic year), and there will be a ton of memorable moments.
