I started out as a UC basketball fan, slowly started following UC football, now I think football is # 1 and basketball is a close 2nd. I just like college football a little more than college basketball.

Football fan 1st. Although I follow BB closely as well, I just can't get into Morgantown for all the BB games. Living in the D.C. area, it's just not feasible.

Though I appreciate the importance of my school's (Memphis) basketball program, I enjoy football, baseball and basketball, in that order. I care nothing about pro sports whatsoever, though I will sometimes attend our triple-A baseball games to enjoy beer, peanuts and relaxation.

Are you still living in PC? I miss living on the gulf coast (Niceville). It did suck for air travel and freeway access though.

I would say I like Louisville basketball and football equally. However, it is easier for me to like football a little more because it isn't as demanding. There are only 12 games to follow as opposed to 30.

Sums it up for me as an RU fan of course.

I would say I follow Cincy football and basketball equally. I definitely started off as a basketball fan but during my stay at UC went to every home football game and traveled to the Motor City Bowl one year.

I used not care about college football at all. I only watched UCONN basketball. Since UCONN joined D1A, I started watching UCONN and college football. I guess I am equally basketball and football fan now. Before I used to watch NFL, now I only watch it to see how my fantasy players are doing.

Football was my favorite sport that I played in high school and it remains my favorite Louisville sport. I would never miss a football game but I have missed basketball games. Also, I have 7 season tickets for football and none for basketball.

Grew up a Syracuse fan when Billy Owens was there, then picked up football towards the end of the Marvin Graves era. Follow both from a distance, but lately my focus has been with basketball since they've been better.

I forget who they played, but the first college basketball game I ever watched on TV was an ABC telecast of a Louisville game (I think Pervis Ellison was a senior), so I had a tiny soft spot for the Cardinals when Denny Crum was there.

I follow BOTH and like basketball since thats the main sport USF had when i went to school there. BUT this is the state of Florida so it is FOOTBALL that really matters.
I have season tickets and make at least two aways, i now go to maybe one or two basketball games. Its more difficult since games are on weekdays and i dont live in Tampa.
But definetely is football first

I used to watch basketball more, though I was a big football fan. Over the last 4 or 5 years I have followed them equally and have consistently gone to a number of UC football games, something I had never done before.

I've always followed both, but my father covered Mountaineer sports for years. Morgantown is a football town. Basketball is a distant second.
