GAME DAY

Up North: A few students party in the dorm and watch ESPN on TV.

LOL for sure. Damn accurate. Take it from someone who grew up "up north" and went to school at University of Florida. It's a whole different culture down there.

Re: College Football- North v/s South

In the north, football is a game.

In the south, football is a religion.
