College football was around for well over half a century before the NFL was established, so many of the traditions of college football go way back. The passion for college football in general is much higher than NFL and the stadium atmosphere for college games simply can't be beaten

All I said was that Buffalo New York has a stronger culture around the NFL than teams in the south because college football is bigger in the south than the NFL. This is why many people have the argument that college football has a better atmosphere than most NFL teams. Stop trying to create arguments and actually comprehend what you read.

@@jfreitag88 compare a jags game to a Florida gators game or a Falcons game to a Georgia bull dawgs game. Carolina panthers to a Carolina gamecocks game, Titans game to a Tennessee game. Plus the biggest stadiums in the nation are all college stadiums. Michigan, LSU, Ohio st, Alabama, Taxes A&M, Tennessee all have bigger stadiums than any NFL team. Create actual comparison where there’s deep culture for both college and NFL football. No one gives a damn about college football in Buffalo NewYork so ofc Bills Mafia can be as big as it wants.

The video of the Iowa Hawkeyes and the fans with the lights out they are all waving at the kids in the children hospital across the street. They do it at the end of the 1st quart every game. This game in particular they were playing University of Northern Iowa and at half time both bands went on the field and spelled FTK (for the kids) with the state of Iowa around them and everyone waved to the kids at the hospital while Pat Green preformed Wave on Wave. It is the best tradition in college sports and people travel all over to experience the wave. There is never a dry eye in the crowed when you hear the kid captains story.

[@bigploppa154]

absolutely, one of the most beautiful aspects of the sport. disagree with Iowa being the best atmosphere though, i like big 10 football but the stadium atmosphere doesnt compare to the best SEC schools. everybody talks about how great Penn State games are, i would rather go watch LSU play McNeese at Death Valley than watch Penn State play OSU at Happy Valley. big 10 is the clear minor league to the SEC, atleast in terms of stadium atmosphere. and this is coming from someone who went to a big 10 school

Took my friend from London to a college football game at the University of Oklahoma. He's a massive Arsenal supporter. His mind was blown. There were 87,000+ in attendance at the game, and he was going on and on about how the Emirates isn't near that and how Wembley seats just 2k more. What really blew his mind was the atmosphere OUTSIDE the stadium hours before the game. He loved the tailgating, the pageantry, bar scene, and festival like atmosphere before the game. I've been to a few Premier League games over the years, and I'd say College Football is much closer to the fandom and passion to that than the NFL is.

[@VideoGameLogicFTW]

College football is definitely the closest American sporting events to European football as someone who’s been to both.

Well, it starts with high school sports in the USA. Football again is the most popular. Every Friday night high school game is an event and almost all the students attend, along with family and friends of the players. There are marching bands, cheerleaders, dance teams and color guard just like in college. There are also "special" traditional games like the Homecoming Game with the Homecoming Queen and King and the Thanksgiving Day game. So the hype starts in nearly every high school in the country and escalates when you get to college games.

We understand when you say Uni. Most of these places have university in there name. We say one goes to college, usually, but they attend a university. A university is a collection of colleges, e.g. engineering, agriculture, business, fine arts, etc. To graduate from a university you have to take additional basic general courses in addition to your college's required courses. For example i was in engineering collage so most of my courses were engineering related like strength of materials, chemistry, machine design, control systems, etc. But in order to graduate i also needed to take things like a foreign language, geography, film studies etc. I even took fashion as one of my art requirements. You usually can choose anything you want as long as you get enough credits in each of the university's areas of study. My math and science requirements were fulfilled with my college courses so I didn't need to take any additional ones in those areas.

[@sadiekincaid5310]

The one where they are waving their phones up in the air are doing so to wave to the children watching from the Children's Hospital next to the stadium. The children are all patients at the Children's Hospital undergoing Medical Treatments and every home game they get to watch the game for free from Children's Hospital. This kind of tradition that particular stadium is a recent tradition that was started after one of the coaches granddaughter spent time in that hospital before she died.

[@gabrieldrummond8647]

You have to remember the size of states and populations. Alabama has 5 million people the stadium holds 101,000 people. At most home games 2/3 are the home team fans and 1/3 is the away team fans. They close down roads near the stadium on game day and party on the streets. As far as crazy the main rival for Alabama is auburn (auburn is another Alabama state school) they hated each other so much the stopped playing from 1907 to 1948. The Alabama state congress threatened the schools with sanctions if they didn’t start playing again. The last super crazy thing was a couple decades ago when a crazy alalabama fan poised the trees that were older than the school and part of a tradition and killed them all. He actually bragged on a radio show and that’s how they caught him. If you wanna really take in the size of these stadiums get on a map app and type in Bryant-Denny stadium.

Eight of the ten largest stadia in the world are devoted exclusively to American college football. There's a multi-use stadium in North Korea which holds the #1 position. Then, I believe the Melbourne Cricket Ground is #10. I'd have to double check, but if memory serves, there are 13 college arenas larger than the biggest NFL stadium. There are about 120 American universities which field college football teams at the highest amateur level. Average stadium size amongst them, best guess, is about 50,000 - IE larger than all but a handful of EPL parks. There are hundreds of universities at successfully lower levels - more or less organized by enrollment and athletic budget. There is no system of promotion and relegation. That concept is completely foreign to American sport. With association football/soccer gaining popularity, there is a groundswell of support for the implementation of pro/rel in the American soccer pyramid. Given that there are well over 100 fully professional clubs in the US, and the increasing popularity of the game, there certainly is the infrastructure to support it. I'm a life-long Celtic fan, but also follow MLS closely. I'd estimate the quality of the American pyramid to be about 1 league behind the English league system. Ergo: MLS = Championship, USL Championship = League 1, etc. But we're improving dramatically, and quickly.

[@Stepperg1]

Also I wanted to say, please check out the Texas A&M marching band as well as Ohio State. You won't get it until you see it! AMAZING! To answer your question about the differences in crowds, College is a sport, NFL is a huge business so the love of the game is quite different. Yes, the schools are a business of a sort but it's raising the future, there's the catch.

They honored him that game by having his brother walk with the team on the field and then went on the field with 10 guys on punt team with no punter to honor Sam. Really touching story and sad.

[@Terrell070]

A College Football game, is an all day event, if you include tailgating. Tailgating is when you and your friends/family arrive hours before the game and have a cookout. The game itself might be at 4 PM, but you arrive around 7 AM for food, & drinks. College Football games are televised, if you have basic cable you can watch games from around noon to 10PM, sometimes later, Eastern Time. Another thing that benefits College Football over the NFL is the size of the USA and the lack of NFL teams in most states. Of the 50 states only 23 have NFL teams. Most states have at least 1 D1 FBS College Football team. NFL teams can move, except the Packers, College teams don't. Anyone who buys a ticket can attend a College Football game and people will travel to watch them. The largest stadiums by capacity in the U.S. are College Football teams. If it's a major rivalry game, tickets may be sold out by gameday.

[@tonybrandt8850]

@2:05 is Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City, Iowa. They built the hospital specifically overlooking it so the children being treated could watch the games.

[@joshpavlik3343]

College basketball is also huge. But generally college fans are more passionate because unlike the nfl not every state has an NFL team so these college teams are “local” in a sense so they have the regional ties to fan bases that support the school and the crowds are a mixture of students athletes family members, just fans of the team and or school alumni that support their school and team. I’ve been to both pro and college football games from an atmosphere stand point college is so much better it’s not even close.

[@slugcult-10_years_and]

Actually, many fans of college football have no friends or family at these schools, nor have they ever attended. There's a lot of college teams in areas of the United States that have no professional team, and the fact that college football has existed for many years BEFORE the pro teams came along, makes them ultra popular with all kinds of people not directly related to the school these teams are affiliated with.

[@cmillivol98]

College is older and has more tradition that pro sports. Plus, college sports are more local. My analogy is like think of Europe as the United States since it’s about the same size. Imagine there was only one major soccer league in all of Europe and it was spread out with 32 teams in the whole continent. Only a few cities would have a team. That’s how the NFL is for us. If you didn’t live in a city with a major team but had a local team around you to watch, you’d have a much bigger sense of closeness to it. Like for example, I live in eastern Tennessee. The closest NFL team to me is a 3 hour drive, but our college team (with a 102,000 seat stadium) is 15 minutes from my house. Who do you think I care about more?😂

[@russellwinfree7587]

So some background and a couple factors that make college football so crazy in regards to fandom, passion, tradition to make it what it is: 1. Like many have said, college football dates way back over a 100 years, FAR older than most of the NFL 2. Most colleges are associated with a region or state that people are from, or deeply connected to by family, friends, etc. 3. States are fairly comparable in size to countries in Europe, and so how France vs. England is a HUGE rivalry, so is Michigan vs. Ohio St., Texas vs. Oklahoma, Tennessee vs. Alabama, etc. 4. There’s also bragging rights for best state team: Florida vs. Florida State, South Carolina vs. Clemson, USC vs. UCLA 5.The universities in the US are VERY LARGE! Most D1 college football teams have student bodies 10-15k on the low end, and 50-60k on the top end. Usually 5-20k ppl in the stadium are students, and 30-60%+ of the rest are usually alumni of the school over numerous generations. So between alumni and state citizens, most big football programs have fanbases in the millions. 6.College teams have large bands that play fight songs at key moments of the game, and provide entertainment at halftime. NFL mostly do not. 7.The stadiums are BIG and OLD (60-100+ years). Most NFL teams trade out stadiums like pants every 20-30 years, and they usually hold substantially less than college stadiums do. They are usually nicer with better amenities, but don’t have anywhere near the character and nostalgia the college stadiums do. -Perfect example, I’m a TN fan and they played a game at the Titans NFL stadium that holds 67k and set the attendance record last weekend at 69k after it has existed 25 years (and they are about to build a new stadium that only holds 60k). Tennessee’s home (Neyland Stadium) holds 102k, and the record is ~108k 7. Many of the alumni go to these schools for 3,4,5,6+ years (main variables being drinking and degrees lol), but have bled, sweat, and cried in doing so, and invested so much time and money in the schools when they’re done. So just like you if the school was your own grown kids, you want to see them when you can, and want them to succeed! Hopefully this helps somewhat explain why college football is so crazy in the States, and why it’s such a uniquely beautiful thing! 🥹

[@81jizz]

I've seen the USA vs European fan video that you're referring to, and yes, it was biased. At the same time, the atmosphere in college sports is livelier, possibly due to the fact that the average attendee at a pro sports event is older than that at a college event.

[@kaydantonio3719]

College age in the US is generally 18-24 but students are all ages. Those fans are students, friends and family.College football is a huge moneymaker for the colleges. Coaches are paid very well, often in the millions and sometimes they’re the highest paid employee in the state. They recruit high school players from all over the country to come play for them. Star college players are often recruited by the NFL. A huge difference between college sports and professional sports is the presence of the marching band at the games. Those college marching bands are amazing and have their own national competitions with each other. Then there’s the cheerleaders standing in the field leading all that cheering you hear. Dude, you’d have so much fun.

[@bethwright4826]

OMG! September is so far away!

[@AronHsiao]

Lots of us are alumni. Many of these schools produce tens of thousands of college graduates every year. After ten years, that's a quarter of a million or more alumni of a school. And it's not just 10 years... You'll see a lot of old-timers at these games as well. "Class of before I was born." And we go to these students games because they walk the same halls we walked, share the same traditions, eat in the same halls, sleep in the same dorm beds, and know the same professors. ;-) It's like a family. Sometimes it's directly about family. Kids grow up going to the games with their parents, who met at university and became who they are at university. And as they grow up, they grow up dreaming of going to the same school that mom and dad went to, and working for years on their skills so that someday they'll get a chance to be out there representing the same school. And then, when they graduate, they take their kids to the games... In many of these schools, there's a huge multigenerational thread running through families. Don't forget these schools are in many cases 100-150 years old, and are strongly associated with a state or a community, often the largest employer in their state or community. The fandom of college football in the US is many times more intense and passionate than for NFL because the participation is direct. A lot of people who go to these games go there not as a "fan" but as a member of a community a century old that is woven directly through all of the most important parts of their lives.

College football is more like European football in terms of history, traditions and passion. NFL teams play in major American cities while most college teams are located in smaller cities and towns so their whole community is invested and involved just like in European football. Even if you attend that college or not, it's still your town's team and this the whole town goes to games. Old, young, male and female. The NFL is just the commercial, big money sport. No where near the atmosphere, passion or history of college football. Obviously the level of play is better cause it has the best of the best players but other than that college games are way more exciting and entertaining. If you want an amazing American football experience, go to a college game. Added bonus: Way, way more women at college games! NFL games are a middle aged sausage fest. Just a bunch of 50 year old pot bellied men sitting quietly drinking beers. College football games are like going to a cool nightclub compared to NFL games. Lots of eye candy all over the place.

There are more college teams than nfl teams, so people tend to support the hometown team, their college/alumni team or just their favorite. And you’re a fan forever. 😊 OH-IO!

A lot college stadiums are bigger than nfl stadiums

[@user-jh3me8ws2o]

Even most if not all premiere league crowds ain't thus big

[@stern12akachris32]

Best part is Most of these Colleges are in the Middle of no where . People flock to these college towns to take part in the traditions. NFL Depends on the City. Kansas City, Seattle, Cleveland , Philadelphia and Pittsburgh are some examples of Crazy NFL city's. But even those do not compare To The Big College Teams

A lot of colleges don't want to talk about this, but sports departments are a huge money sink. They lose money hand over fist, because they're paying their coaches and assistant coaches the same amount of money as a lot of professional teams pay. They pay a lot of money for facilities and stadiums to keep the athletes performing at a professional level. The federal government gives a lot of schools grants to pay for their facilities and promote their teams. A lot, "But the colleges make money off tickets and merchandise" yes, but they still lose money. In fact, some of the top ten teams in the SEC (Southeaster Conference) lost so much money, they only showed a profit because of the federal grants propping them up. A few years ago, Mississippi State University, at the time in the top five SEC teams, showed a $2 million dollar profit in their athetics division, but only after receiving a $5 million dollar federal grant. If it weren't for the grant money, they would be in the hole $3 million dollars. Meanwhile, teachers don't get raises and tuition gets hiked, while they give annual raises to their coaches and other staff in the sports departments. Of course, if the players get badly injured, they're cut from the team and lose their sports scholarships (and student insurance) at the end of the semester, because they weren't getting paid (because they were amateurs) most have to drop out, because they relied on their sports scholarships and other perks to pay their way. The top college athletes might end up with sponsorship contracts to make them a lot of money, but not all of them get that. Then they have a crippling injury that effects them the rest of their lives, paying for their treatment, surgeries, and therapy out of their own pocket, which might not be covered under their new insurance (if they can afford it), because it's a pre-existing injury.But how 'bout them Dawgs!! :)

Jesus yes its college. You don't have to keep asking.

[@Arnold-Layne1967]

I only watch College. ROLL TIDE!!!!!

[@Daehawk]

College fans are younger and more energetic.

[@jackpackage4278]

The crazy thing is fans of teams that are trash still get just as hyped as top 5 schools.

[@HowdySportsProductions]

To answer your questions college football has the most fans of college sports and college basketball is second. The other sports like hockey baseball and soccer/football don’t get as much attention. And college fans are way more crazy than NFL fans because of the student sections and the alumni (people that attended that specific college)

College is usually 18 years old to 21+.
