Excitement Level for Football on a 1-10?

[Cooterpoot]

In this instant eligibility + NIL environment it's hard to care. Used to be we could count on a big school having a fatal flaw and I'd have hope we could exploit it; now they just buy a player to fix the flaw, while buying our best players (RaRa). I'll pull for a guy I think is all Dawg only to see him play Portal games for money and learn he doesn't give a crap about our team or university. I can't blame anyone for trying to make money... but I also don't want to root for those people.

I'm 2 right now, will probably be a 6 by game day after I get bored and start following the team closely. But last year I skipped some games and didn't miss it. If we start losing I could see putting a nice fall hike with my kids above a game

You think AL and LSU and TX etc aren't beatable? There's more damn parity than there's been in a long time. We might not be able to handle them but there's almost no team that will dominate like AL used to.
Now we've got a portal era coach and we had a solid damn portal haul ourselves.
