As Americans, we love an underdog story. After all, our nation’s history was one. The United States was founded by colonists who decided “enough was enough,” fought against the most powerful empire of the time, Great Britain, and won our independence. I’m glad they did, because without tea-tossing colonists, we wouldn’t have college football.

I’m not afraid to say it — college football is more likable than the NFL.
