Serious football fans will tell you that college football kicks ass over pro football. These kids play with more passion than most NFL athletes, and the atmosphere at any college football game can’t be beat. But here are 10 more reasons to start watching college football:

10. Get out of Saturday chores – “I’d love to do some yard work right now, but Ohio State and USC don’t play each other very often.”

9. You already watch the NFL – If you watch the NFL but not college football you’re missing out on a chance to double your weekly football intake.

8. College quarterbacks – Most college quarterback are gunslingers so if you like watching deep balls fly you’ll love the college game.

7. College running backs – Imagine all the best running backs in the NFL running against defenses that aren’t as good as in the NFL. That’s what it’s like watching a good college running back.

6. Bowl season – If you want to spend the holiday season and weeks leading up to it on your couch, you’re going to love bowl season. Just make sure you work that large dent out of the couch cushion before the Super Bowl.

5. You can bet on it – If you’re going to bet on college football you might want to at least feign some interest. Get all your NCAA football betting in the Bodog Sportsbook now!

4. Learn 100 more team names – You already know the names of every MLB, NFL, NHL, and NBA team, so how about another 100-plus college team names to cram into that underused brain of yours.

3. Be a man – Men like football. Yes, college football too. You can at least pretend to be a man and pretend to like it as well.

2. College cheerleaders – Guess what? They’re just as hot as NFL cheerleaders, especially in the southern states.

1. The BCS – Come up with your own take on the mindboggling system that is (not) so much better than a playoff.
