What is your favorite College Team?

USC Washington Football

Southern California quarterback John David Booty prepares to pass against Washington in the second half Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Seattle.

The Trojans (4-0, 2-0 Pac-10) committed three turnovers and 16 penalties -- their most in more than two seasons -- for 161 yards, plus had a missed a field goal and a blocked punt in a game played through a first-half drizzle. Yet they won for the 60th time in 64 games. USC won, 27-24. (AP Photo/Elaine Thompson)
 

LSU Tulane Football

LSU receiver Brandon LaFell can't get away from Tulane cornerback Josh Lumar in the first half of their football game in the Superdome in New Orleans Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. LSU was called for holding in the end zone resulting in a safety on the play.

Tulane trailed only 10-9 at halftime and didn't fall more than one score behind until Hester's 1-yard touchdown run gave LSU a 20-9 lead with 5:53 remaining in the third quarter.

Oklahoma Colorado Football

Oklahoma wide receiver Juaquin Iglesias, bottom, dives to catch a pass as Colorado Benjamin Burney (42) defends during the fourth quarter at Folsom Field in Boulder, Colo., Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. The pass was ruled incomplete after review and Oklahoma lost their first down.

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops envisioned it going down to the wire. Colorado's Dan Hawkins had a hunch his team would pull off the big upset.

Both coaches turned out to be correct and Hawkins' Buffaloes dealt a serious blow to the Sooners national title hopes when Kevin Eberhart kicked a career-long 45-yard field goal as time expired to send Colorado past No. 3 Oklahoma 27-24 on Saturday. (AP Photo/Jack Dempsey)

Auburn Florida Football

Auburn's Mario Fannin (27) goes throught the Florida line with Floridia's Major Wright (21), Jacques Rickerson (23) and Brandon Spikes (51) trying to stop him in 2nd half between Florida and Auburn in Gainesville, Fla. Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. Auburn defeated Florida, 20-17.

Wes Byrum's 43-yard field goal as time expired lifted the Tigers to a 20-17 victory over No. 4 Florida on Saturday night and gave them one of the biggest upsets on a day filled with them.(AP Photo/Phil Sandlin)

West Virginia South Florida Football

South Florida quarterback Matt Grothe (8) eludes a hit by West Virginia's Charles Pugh (15) during the second quarter Friday night Sept. 28, 2007, in Tampa, Fla. Grothe eventually threw a touchdown pass on the play. 

Grothe scrambled to avoid a sack before throwing a 55-yard touchdown pass to Carlton Mitchell, and Ben Moffitt returned one of his two interceptions 26 yards for a TD to lead a stellar defensive performance in the Big East opener. (AP Photo/Steve Nesius)

Kansas St Texas Football

Kansas State defensive end Ian Campbell, right, runs toward the goal line after intercepting a pass from Texas quarterback Colt McCoy and running it back 41 yards for the score during second quarter action Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Austin, Texas.

Kansas State scored three touchdowns on special teams and an interception, and the Wildcats stunned the No. 7 Longhorns 41-21, handing Texas coach Mack Brown his worst home defeat in 10 years. (AP Photo/Harry Cabluck)
 

Ohio St Minnesota Football

Ohio State's Kurt Coleman, left, and James Laurinaitis, right, bring down Minnesota running back Duane Bennett for a loss in the third quarter Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Minneapolis.

Ohio State turned in another well-rounded victory, staying unbeaten while several other top-ranked teams couldn't.

As a U.Va. Wahoo, so obviously my favorite team is the Cavaliers.

However, I acknowledge that Virginia Tech has a much better football team...and despite the fact that my manager at work is a Hokie girl, I make this statement voluntarily and of my own free will.

There is one thing, though. William & Mary, where my sister is an undergrad, has a terrible football team that I did not know even existed until the Hokies tore them to shreds recently.

Hello, Kath!

Not too bad for the oldest guy on the battlefield, I think!

Because my team represents one of the world's greatest Universities, a University that excels in academics and research in virtually every field, and boasts numerous distinguished alumni that have become respected leaders...

Because my team has a long and virtually unblemished record of honor and sportsmanship, discipline and hard work...

Because my team is a consistent and longstanding national leader in atheletic prowess and success...

Because my team hails from and represents a great and beautiful State...

Because my team has the most beautiful and striking uniforms in all of sports...

Because my team has the world's greatest fight song BAR NONE...

And finally, because I spent some of the happiest years of my life attending this great University, in one of our nation's best college towns, where I obtained a fantastic education while meeting many wonderful people and making friendships that last to this day...

For all of these reasons and more, my favorite team is the world renowned:

University of Michigan Wolverines!

And that is all I have to say on the subject.
