Who would you root for?
So you've probably read the rumor-mongering thread by now, and I think we can all agree that it probably wont happen (the elimination of all BYU athletics), but I was just thinking, who would I become a fan of, if it did happen.
So, vote for who you would cheer for, and why.

Re: Who would you root for?
I guess I would become a fan of college football in much the same way I view the NFL. No team to cheer for, just watching out of love for the game and for great performances by individuals, defenses, offenses etc.

Re: Who would you root for?
I'd continue rooting for Minnesota, my second alma mater, and I could see myself cheering for Air Force, since I do have family ties to the Air Force (not the academy, but the service in general).

I'd root for team Kim Jung Il; because the odds of him getting a NCAA division 1 sports program are about as good as BYU having the rug pulled out from under them.

Re: Who would you root for?
I picked "other" because I would probably be like Declocoug and just cheer for the sport of College football. My gut tells me I would just root for whoever could screw the Bc$ up the most. Wait, that's who I root for now (coupled with my strongest rooting for our beloved Cougs of course).
Go Cougs!!!

Minnesota because I served my mission there and have become somewhat of a fan. Also UVU because that's where I went to school, although they don't have a football team.

Re: Who would you root for?
I'd cheer for Air Force seeing as I am an AF reservist currently and then I chose "Other" as I would be like both declocoug and AmmonCougar and just enjoy the sport for what it is. I have any number of teams that I have enjoyed watching and have more than a passing interest in, but not enough to really become a "fan" such as Auburn, Indiana, Illinois, Washington State etc.

Re: Who would you root for?
I'd spend even more energy hating and cheering against the Big Ten and against Utah.
