Why Falcons? I wasn't aware of many 'bandwagon' Falcon fans. I know several bandwagon Eagle fans though (except they were pretty quiet recently :p )

And don't forget NBA team: Heat, Thunder, Nets, Celtics, Lakers, and to some extent the Bulls

And you forgot Boise St, TCU, and OU. And the Rangers. And I would say the Reds, but they don't seem to have gained many bandwagon fans after their success.

So in other words, the only loyal fans are of Northwestern, Wake Forest, and the Sun Belt.

Don't be too sure, as much scoring as we've seen in this game.

But in all likelihood, I'll be 0-1. :(

Speaking of that, I haven't shared my picks yet.

Arizona vs Nevada

Toledo vs Utah State

BYU vs San Diego State

Ball State vs UCF

East Carolina vs UL Lafayette

Boise St vs Washington

Fresno St vs SMU

Central Michigan vs Western Kentucky

Bowling Green vs San Jose St

Cincinnati vs Duke

Baylor vs UCLA

Ohio vs UL Monroe

Rutgers vs Virginia Tech

Minnesota vs Texas Tech

Air Force vs Rice

Syracuse vs West Virginia

Arizona St vs Navy

Oregon St vs Texas

Michigan St vs TCU

NC State vs Vanderbilt

G Tech vs USC

Iowa St vs Tulsa

Clemson vs LSU

Purude vs OK St

Miss State vs Northwestern

Georgia vs Nebraska

Michigan vs South Carolina

Stanford vs Wisconsin

Florida St vs NIU

Florida vs Louisville

K State vs Oregon

OU vs Texas AM

Ole Miss vs Pittsburgh

Ark. St vs Kent St

Alabama vs Notre Dame

I've been going back and forth on ND vs Bama, but in the end I'm deciding on Bama. In my ESPN selections I chose ND, but in my money pool I'm in I took Bama.

Of course, Nevada chokes.

And I assume Utah State will do the same.

ANd one that note, I believe Utah State did choke. Or did they win? I'm not anywhere where I can check the score.

I'm 1-1 also. I should be 2-0, but Nevada has to choke. Up 17 points to start the 4th quarter and you fucking lose. Worse than Alabama.... :palm:

Fun fact: When shooting Forrest Gump, the University of Alabama would not allow them to do the graduation scene it on the campus. The reason was they thought (for some reason) that people wouldn't get the idea that Forrest could actually graduate from Alabama if it wasn't on the actual campus.
