From a neutral football fan's perspective (doing what I can to step out of Vols Super fan mode, that is) all of the unpredictability has been a downer for me this season. Maybe it is because of the pro athletics feel of things. I've always stayed at arms lenghth from pro sports because of this. College football was my whole hog activity. Hopefully this season will be a one off as generally everyone seems more uninterested this year- whether they're LSU or ND.... at least around my parts.
