This feeling hits me every year in the weeks preceding the season opener and in those years I've always had the feeling that I'm not the only one.
Chicago is a melting pot of relocated alumni; clearly a large chunk of the ratio leans toward the Big Ten, but there are myriad universities represented. As September looms and the weather starts to turn, there's a noticeable uptick in university apparel.
Everyone seems to be representing their school more prominently when football season is on the horizon. It just gets me even more revved up.
Last year was the first season since I enrolled at MSU that I didn't make it to a football game. Truly unacceptable. The plan is to make it to at least one game this season, the only problem being a significant hike in ticket prices thanks to Coach Dantonio's success with the program.
