I absolutely love to watch college football on Saturdays. It's pretty exciting in the RTP area here in NC. We have three ACC teams, UNC, NC State and Duke, in the vicinity. Now they are not ranked teams nor probably even close to a BCS bowl bid, but each week they have proved to provide some local excitement that either brings neighbors and family together or sets them apart. Always makes for interesting conversations at the water cooler on Monday mornings.
Just yesterday, UNC came back from being down 14 to beat ACC foe Miami on a last second defensive
play that secured the win, 28-24.
They have found thier new QB in Cam Sexton.
Duke(with a new head coach) won their first ACC game in 25 losses. They beat UVA pretty handedly 31-3. Could they possibly be turning a corner?
NC State wasn't as fortunate this week as their big win against in-state rival ECU last week. South Florida came away with a 41-10 victory.
I don't only keep up with the local teams; I have alliances with a few others teams even though they are usual not televised in this area. I attended Marshall University in Huntington, WV so they are always on my radar. Saturday featured and in-state rivalry with formerly ranked (#8) WVU. This one is fun for me. Most of my friends and family are WVU fans. I'm considered the black sheep due to my alliance to the "other" university in WV. It stared with text messages on Friday..."big game tomorrow...go HERD!"...well I received all sort of replies (most I can't mention here), but this one was the best..."step in shit"...that's the kind of camaraderie I so enjoy on College Football Saturdays. Now didn't that just crack you up, no matter who your favorite team may be? Marshall went down to WVU 27-3.
