I went to HS and college in Hawaii and a friend of mine from HS has family that plays on other teams. Her nephew is Dillon Gabriel(UCF QB) and her niece plays on Texas volleyball squad(Jenna Gabriel), so I watch them in support of my friend. Her family are big LA Rams fan, as are many in Hawaii, and one of Dillon's brothers is named Roman(yeah, Roman Gabriel). Yeah, if either team plays the Sooners, I support OU. BOOMER!
 
My daughter goes to Georgia Southern so I root for them.

My primary team is Mississippi State, but I watch LSU games for the LOLS

I’m a modest airraid technician. I only know one thing, fuck Dora. Besides that I enjoy a quality game between to fine scholastic institutions.

Usually any WV connections at HC or players from WV, Saban (Bama) , Jimbo (A&M), Doc at Marshall , RichRod wherever he coaches ect. Plus I have just experienced good memories or friends have involved me at/for other teams/schools as well, will be a factor in my search for a new squad. I usually root for:

Tennessee- Since the Majors era, have enjoyed many a players from UT.

Florida - Yea its an issue^, but since Galen Hall/Emmit Smith days, loved Spurrier, Tebow as well. Few transfers helped home state Marshall have some really good teams.

South Carolina- Liked USC fans since the days of them cheering “Tannyhill sucks!” During a game I was watching them play and.. they were winning :yes: we always had a party as honorary Cock fans in WV when they opened the CFB season each year and got a lil closer to them.

Notre Dame- had some great experiences there with friends and it’s very hard not to get wrapped up in the tradition. Cool place.

LSU- I remember exactly where I was when the “Earthquake” happened. LOVED partying with their fans when they came to town, Liked em ever since.

I generally keep a team I like to pull for in every conference, and it changes regularly, since I'm just loosely keeping up.

My true number 2 team is App State. A close friend of mine was a bench warmer for that 2007 team that beat Michigan, and Boone, NC is one of my favorite places on this planet.

ACC, I like Wake Forest. They're never gonna be a threat to win anything, but they've been a fun team to watch the last few years.
B1G, I like Iowa. I also make fun of Iowa a lot, but they may never win the conference, they usually have a big say so in who does.
Big 12, I like KSU because they give Oklahoma problems
Pac, I liked WSU under Leach, probably pull for Utah now.
 
A&M, then anyone playing Jexas
 
I don't have any other rooting interests/fan allegiances and I don't actually follow any of these teams.

I do enjoy seeing them win FB games & beating up their conf. members.


ACC - UVA
B1G - Iowa
Big 12 - Iowa St.
C-USA - FIU
MAC - Buffalo
MWC - SDSU
PAC - Washington
SEC - Miss St.
Sun Belt - Coa. Carolina
 
Auburn
Whoever is playing Alabama
Loyola University in Chicago
Service Academies (except Army)
Land grant universities
 
I used to root for Michigan St when we were in the Big 12. Now I don't really have a back up team as much as I have a 'root for whoever is playing against _____" team.
 
Don't really think there are any. There are teams that I don't like, so I'll root against them, but none that I have that much rooting interest for.
 
Whoever is playing the Fuskies.
 
Who ever Mike Leach is coaching
