Obviously on the field NFL is superior but college has the rabid fans, the bands, cheerleaders (not dancers wearing basically nothing), and the traditions. I would rather watch two college heavy weights go at it than a NFL game.
Right. College football is a better product in every way except for the actual football. Most college football games are blowouts, even in some of the bigger and better programs. Look at Alabama beating A&M 59-0, or Ohio State beating Wisconsin 59-0 (in the Big 10 'Championship Game' no less!).
That's why I said this year has been great for college football, as there's been fewer blowouts.
But still, the likelihood of a pro game being watchable is much, much better than even "two college heavy weights", as it is statistically likely that the college game will not be close or competitive.
That's why the NFL is a better product.
