    College Football Now Better To Watch Than NFL

    New kickoff rule is awful. I think that 108 yard return by Cobb will be the exception. Not that I wouldn't love to see Hester return a few tomorrow, I just think this rule sucks from a fans standpoint.

    Might as well just get rid of kickoffs.

    Start from the 20 every time.

    College has always been better to watch

    crowd atmosphere
    scoring
    passion
    tons of games

    College football has always been the same...majority of the teams don't/can't play defense.

    The kick off rule sucks, but compared to watching nfl, college ball looks like little league.

    College is a joke in D who cares. D =/= exictement

    Moron fairweather NFL fans who dont even sellout games make for absolute dogshit atmospheres at pro games. NFL fans are clowns who show up to games in their jerseys and care more about their fantasy teams.

    Compare the Michigan atmosphere tonight to the Sunday Night Jets game or the Fins Monday Night game

    The only NFL game atmosphere comparable to college is Green Bay

    I will take watching the Denver Broncos as horrendous as they are, or a Michael Vick lead team over any college game any day.

    Yeah you missed the boat by 30 years if you think the NFL has been better to watch. Outside of watching my favorite team, the NFL is nothing compared to college.

    I can after watching one NFL game with this BS rule. I mean, how much excitement comes from kickoff returns?

    Unless you're the Tampa Bay Bucs, a lot.

    Saturday is a better day to watch football than Sunday. But no doubt the pros play a whole different game than the lower paid amateurs. I get up and do other things during the NFL Sunday, not thinking I will miss much. On Saturday, I don't move, I will listen on radio, have the laptop open, and be watching two or three great college games. I love myself some college football. Especially the mini pros in the SEC.

    I hear ya but they can't get rid of kickoffs altogether, they'll lose onside kick opportunities at the end of close games.

    Could be too dangerous

    Maybe they should have one player chuck the ball underhanded from 10 yards away

    Safety first!

    Some early decent returns

    Maybe we should kick it off from the 50, just to be sure
