Kinsa 31,127 Report post Posted September 18, 2018 (edited) Who do you root for when your two kids' current universities are playing against each other for the upcoming weekend's football game? Eek! (Texas State vs Univ of TX at SA) Guess I'll play Switzerland on this one. ? Edited September 18, 2018 by Kinsa 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TravelingChris 6,446 Report post Posted September 18, 2018 Glad I do not have this problem. Youngest decided on attending a Division 3 school which is in the same conference as my and dh's alma mater but out of the three of us, I think I am the only one who ever even when to a football game at my university. My older dd is a U of AL fan (her first college) and cheers on Arizona State too (her graduating school) and her husband is MS State. We have even attended the Egg Bowl a few years ago (the rivalry game between MS State and Ole Miss on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. (which was really fun for me). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amber in SJ 2,943 Report post Posted September 18, 2018 We know a couple that is a house divided (BYU/UofU) I say root for both, cheer for good play and wear 2 different color socks. When we watch hockey we cheer for great saves even against our home team, because we are a goalie family. Amber in SJ 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DawnM 23,094 Report post Posted September 19, 2018 Hmmmm.....well, one of my kids goes to a college without a football team, so I don't need to worry too much about that one! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
