College for sure.The rivalries,fans,and the atmosphere in the NFL are not as passionate as college football.Plus, I don't like that sudden death in overtime.I think that you sould give the other team a chance to score.
are you guys carazy or something this season u have to say NFL even though TENNESSEE has not got a good team in either one u can still get to see Peyton Manning and the Colts who i hate kill all the other i hate which i enjoy watching but i still had rather watch GRIZZLIES basketball or PREDATORS hokey
Definately College ball. Pro is exciting during playoffs and Superbowl but for college Division 1 all games are playoff to get to BCS bowl game. Plus gots to love them Vols which means college will always rank higher in my book.

I like college better than the NFL as well, but, BUT...i will say this for the NFL...and it's only been in the last 4 years or so that i would say this....the NFL is GREAT. the parody of the league is without a doubt better than any other major sport, major league sports.
and as for tradition, well, i have had the opportunity to go to 2 or 3 Pittsburgh Steeler games a year since i met my wife, and let me just say....If you were at a Steeler game and everyone wore orange, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the Burgh and Ktown on game day...replace the orange and white shakers with terrible towels, replace ROCKY TOP with HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO!!! Whew, man...went to the AFC champ. game last year against the patriots....awesome. And i'm sure Green Bay, Kansas City, Denver and others can boast the same kind of traditions and rivalries....
Plenty of tradition and rivalries...to show how dumb i am, i had no idea what kind of rivalry existed between Pit and Cle...it's like TN/Bama up there.... and the pit/bal game has become like the TN/FL game...
and the fans...they're just like us. there's a big banner that hangs on the sideline opposite where we sit and it reads: ZERO TOLERANCE. You got STeeler Nation....blah, blah, blah...
I still love CFB over the NFL, but i can say i look forward to Sundays a lot more than i used to...plus living in a city with an NFL team makes a difference....the panther's run to the superbowl was great, and i got to go to the Panther's Cowboy's play off game in 03...hands down the best football game i've ever been to. Seriously.
Give the NFL some props....just not too many...still nothing like Saturdays in the fall.... :yahoo:
