Years ago, the play-by-play voice of ABC College Football, Chris Schenkel, in his introduction of the weekly telecast would say something to the effect: "College football . . . its color, pomp, pageantry, and traditions."
Your response to the question, What Do You Like About College Football? could very well depend on your current state in your life journey.
The obvious response, of course, is the game itself. However, what sets college football apart from other venues, I believe, are elements described by Schenkel.
For me, as a 64 year-old, traveling across a college campus to a game and taking in the settings (tailgate gatherings), seeing and hearing young and old getting pumped up for the game is a show in itself. For a few short hours, one is transported back to one's college days and the memories developed. All seems right, and one is young again, if only for a short time period.
The music of college football is a big part too. No other sport (pro or amateur) has music that college football has produced or is as recognizable.
In any case, what do you like about college football?
Go Gophers!!
