Also don't forget most colleges have bench seating so they can cram fans in like sardines Edit, just saying you could fit an extra 20k seats into every NFL stadium if you didn't have real seats. Edit2: minus the packers
As a Texas fan, as I was "Wait! That's not burnt orange! That's Tennessee!" Then they watched the Aggie band and said they watched the Texas band. Aaaargh!
That's the Tennessee Volunteers not Texas. Yes, it is an every home game thing. It is good to note that there are only 12 college football games in a team's regular season and usually 6 or 7 are home games. I'll also point out that most large college stadiums hold more capacity than the towns they are in because the towns are just college towns and nothing more. People will drive a few hours to see their college play. It's no joke. The town of Clemson in South Carolina has 17,000 people. The stadium that the Clemson Tigers play in holds 82,500 and they sell out regularly
"most large college stadiums hold more capacity than the towns they are in" well that's just not true, even here in little lexington, KY there's 350,000 people and Kroger Stadium has a capacity of about 70,000.
@@charlesbrown4483 You think 350,000 people is little? Wow. Wouldn't exactly call 350,000 people a college town. A college town would be Ann Arbor, Michigan, State College, Pennsylvania, Laramie, Wyoming, Athens, Georgia, and so on. All of these towns are solely driven by the college. Lexington, Kentucky is the 2nd largest in the state and it's not even close to the 3rd. You can make the argument for the 3rd largest city in Kentucky being a college town (WKU) with 60,000 people but you can't say a town with 350,000 is a college town. That's just silly.
@@Reindurr417 Lexington is like the 53rd largest city in America lmao. Of course comparing it to much smaller cities you can then call it a big city… But compared to ALL of America’s city’s, it’s really not very big at all.
The Florida State Seminoles still do everything the same, they've always had a great relationship with the Seminole Tribe of Florida. The Kansas City Chiefs of the NFL and the Atlanta braves of Major League baseball also do the tomahawk chop.
Yeah and the so called Washington ‘Commanders’ went woke and have turned their backs on the pride entrenched in our Native American communities. Redskins forever!! 🙄
To add to this, the modern version of the warchant was born when FSU played Auburn in 1984. A group of students started a vocal chant everytime the Marching Chiefs played the song "Massacre." This chant continued throughout the rest of the year and subsequent years, being led by the school's fraternity sections. A chopping motion was eventually added, and the Marching Chiefs refined the chant into an official school song after receiving the blessing of the Seminole Tribe of Florida. The chant has been copied by other organizations, but their origins can all be traced back to an FSU alum. For example, the Atlanta Braves started doing it to welcome FSU alum Deion Sanders. The Kansas City Chiefs started using it after an FSU alum became the director of the Rumble.
WOW! The death threats you guys are going to get from Texas, Tennessee, and A&M fans. Holy crap!😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I don't think I've ever seen anyone successfully destroy 3 fan bases with a single sentence. 😁
The Aggie band is the Texas A&M band. The cadets were khaki but A&M is Maroon and White. The University of Texas is the Longhorns and they are Burt Orange (a medium dark orange, the color of the sky towards the end of the sunset). The University of Tennessee wears a bright orange, the are the Volunteers.
The first entrance was Clemson. @ 3:35 you left Clemson up, though it had changed to Virginia Tech @ 5:25 it changed to Michigan, the Largest College Stadium in the U.S. @ 7:00 it changed to Miami, though it is uncommon for UM to be packed. @ 7:25 it changed to Nebraska; Coach Osborn went on to be a State Senator. @ 9:03 it changed to Tennessee, you mistakenly took them for Texas. @ 9:41 it changed to Florida State, {Clemson was the team they played that day} @ 10:36 it changed to Oklahoma @ 10:59 it changed to Georgia Tech
Go Nebraska Cornhusker’s Black Shirts!!!❤❤❤ Toured their stadium when we went on vacation for our 25th Wedding Anniversary! They’re my husbands favorite college team so had to go see their stadium! When my husband turned 50 I surprised him by taking him to see the Cornhusker’s play, so much fun!❤ The closest college stadium to us is over an hour away but it’s nothing for us to drive there for a college game. College teams have their own stadiums and they are huge and usually filled if they’re a good team.
to answer about Tom Osborne, he retired from coaching in 97 after winning 252 games and losing 48, he then came back in 2007 to become athletic director, kinda like the general manager for the entire school, that was the last home game before he retired from that post.
I went to VPI also known easily as Virginia Tech. A part of the school is a military school with cadets wearing uniforms and doing things like squaring their meals (moving forks or spoons forward, up, then towards your mouth). When the football game started, the stadium would rock as Enter the Sandman played when the players rush into the stadium.
That might have been the funniest screw up….. -Tennessee entrance .. -Calls them Texas -Proceeds to call Texas’ mascot the Aggies (of Texas A&M ) 😂brilliant you will learn👍🏻
College atletics are run by there regulatory overseer - The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) and that is split into 5 power conferences (The SEC [Southeastern Conference], The Big 10- mostly the big state schools in the mid-west, The ACC -- The Atlantic Coastal Conference, The Big 12 - another mostly mid-western schoolconference, and finally The Pac 12 Conference - West Coast Schools (Pac stands for Pacific), and then a lot of smaller schools in smaller conferences. Many of them don't have football but their main sport is college basketball
Tom Osborne, the former Nebraska head coach in the video was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Nebraska as well. He was a U.S. Congressman for 3 terms, which is six years.
These college football players don't all have a goal of the NFL. They are college students majoring in business, engineering, even the humanities and many have the military in their future. They can always be proud of being on a college football team but the majority are smart enough to know their futures lie elsewhere.
These are regular season games. Check out Ninh explains The Rules of American Football, if you haven't already. After that check out College Football Miracles. The first video is pretty basic, but it's worthwhile, as it may make other football videos more enjoyable. Another one you might like is NFL Knowing the Rules Moments.
One of the best entrances but was not mentioned was University of Georgia back in 70s-80s. The team would arrive at Sanford Stadium on a train. The train tracks sat above the playing field and when the players exited the train they would all come running down the hill into the stadium. What really got the crowd going was hearing the whistle of the train as it made it’s way to the stadium. Unfortunately, that tradition is no longer since they expanded the stadium seating.
Thank you for reacting. I played at the United States Naval Academy. Later, I was liaison to MoD. I would love to see you guys react to the Army Navy Game.
Hi both, we’ve seen some amazing college football videos. (My memories of school football is two teams and a few parents standing on the sidelines) This is something else, those stadiums looks way bigger than Wembly Stadium. This is another great upload ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The first stadium on the video is Death Valley, home of the Clemson University Tigers. It is located in Clemson, SC, a town of 17,000 people. The student body of the University is around 26,000 including graduate students. The stadium has a seating capacity of 81,500 persons. And Clemson usually fills the stadium to capacity. So, on a home game weekend, the population of Clemson, SC temporarily becomes the 4th largest municipality in the state of South Carolina. In college football, there are 12 regular season games per year: half at home and half away. So, getting tickets for a game is a big deal. A typical college game lasts for 3.5 to 4 hours. Even though the actual on field playing time is 1 hour, time-outs to review plays, and breaks at halftime and between the quarters stretches it out. With tailgating before and after the game, it becomes a giant all-day party. And there are not just night games. On a football Saturday the first wave of games starts at Noon Eastern Standard Time. The second wave starts around 3:00pm EST. The third wave starts around 7:30-8:00pm EST and usually ends around 11:00 to midnight. Because the west coast is 3 time zones west of the east coast, they even start some games at midnight EST which is 9:00pm Pacific Standard Time. So, if you can't get to the stadium, you can literally watch football from Noon on Saturday until 4am Sunday morning. And since there are around a dozen TV channels carrying games each weekend, there are around 40-50 games to choose from each weekend. College football is massive and dwarfs the NFL. And it's a better brand of football as well.
There are so many more as well! Not enough time. That was strange that they kept projecting "Clemson" on screen way beyond the Clemson clip. Same at the end over the FSU Seminoles. Great reactions.
Fun fact. Nebraska’s stadium holds just above 90k people, and they have sold out every home game since the 1970’s. So, every Saturday that they have a home game, the stadium is the third largest city in the state behind Lincoln and Omaha.
I'm partial to iowa but that's where I went. The football team comes out to back in black ACDC. Others come out to Enter sandman Metallica, etc. On our 3rd down, it's crazy train Ozzie, so we make a lot of noise so the other team can't hear plays 😊. Can't wait to go back and play in the Hawkeye alumni marching band at homecoming.
So I went to a military high school and all the students were required to go to our football games so we had a minimum of 1000 people at our games. The rush from just that many people I can’t even imagine what it’s like playing in front of 90 thousand people like some of these kids!
I live in/near a tiny college town with a medium sized school and the hoopla is the same. My son played recreational league football as a child and then on his high school team. The local schools have full stadiums on Friday nights. I live in North Carolina and NC State’s basketball program shares a stadium with a National Hockey League team (Carolina Hurricanes).
College football is different than nfl in the sense of fans. People tend to have more tradition and pride for college because most fans have ties to the university through attending or a family member attending. The yellow crowd is a a stadium that will seat 111,000 and squeezes in more quite often!!
That gentlemen was new to me and seriously impressive. Thank you both. Can I request you react to The Angels singing " After the rain" live at Nsrrara. Great Australian rock band. Their lead guitarist does not move at all, rather unusual Cheers 🇭🇲
Americans are so serious about their college football that many people often put their kids on the season ticket waiting list, as soon as they are born. LOL The 'yellow' stadium is ours. University of Michigan & the stadium is known as 'The Big House' & holds 110,000 & it is full for every game. Our colors are blue & 'maize'. 'Go Blue'!
Valerie Burris High School games are played on Thursday and Friday nights ,College games are played on Thursday and Saturday .NFL games are played on Sunday ,Monday and Thursday nights.
I guess different conferences may play college football on Thursday but I've never been to a college game on Thursday. Interesting though I'll have to look that up
I live about 15 mins to Clemson and if you’re not apart of the Saturday crowd there, you might as well stay at home because you’re not getting through there easily.
Yeah the second one, “Enter Sandman” is for the Virginia Tech Hokies in Blacksburg, Virginia. All the bouncing/jumping they do registers on a Richter scale like an earthquake. Va. Tech schools a lot of architects and engineers so the stadium is well taken care of.
Clemson plays in a stadium called Death Valley! Top attendance is 86k fans! Michigan has a capacity of 107K people, which is the biggest for college FB!! Miami has a capacity of 65K. Nebraska best capacity 91K. Texas A and M or Aggies, have 102K capacity for football...that one is crazy big--I had no idea! Texas--that is the Texas Longhorns---capacity of 100k. Florida State capacity 79k, there nickname is Seminoles. An American Indian Tribe...and some teams still do the CHOP---some have stopped. One more not on the video was Penn State (which is in the middle of nowhere) 106K!! There is some info for you gents over there in the UK! Great review as usual! Enjoy the American Footy!! Mistake from the T in the video---it should be Tennessee, my mistake...looked at to quickly! They have a stadium with a capacity of almost 102K!
You are right, that these players do not get paid by the Universities to play. Though, a recent rule passed, which allows these players to monetize their names, through promotional deals and ad revenue. The sad reality, is that those who will receive the highest amounts from this, are the ones who will be good enough to make it into the nfl. In fact, one a player in the last week, just got a release from his obligation to play for a school, because he was offered $13 million over 4 years {$3.25 million per year} and the people who pledged that money, could not generate the amount promised. The downside, is most of these players will never play the sport again post their College years. The upside, is that the are scholarship players, attending school for free, and receiving a University diploma. So they are able to go forward and utilize their education in finding a career. What you were watching, were entrances from some of the highest generating programs in the country. So, where we similarities in league level with the UK is at the College Division Level. The Highest Level is Div 1 FBS [Football Bowl Subdivision] -- 131 teams Then below that is Div 1 FCS [Football Championship Subdivision] -- 124 teams Below that is Division 2 -- 169 teams Then Division 3 -- 249 teams Those are all NCAA [National Collegiate Athletics Association] Divisions Rarely does a guy from the lower divisions, but it does occasionally happen. Under that, there are other College Leagues who compete outside of the NCAA. They are the NAIA [National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics] and beneath even that is the NJCAA [National Junior College Athletic Association] which we generally refer to as JUCO, for Junior College. There are 100 NAIA teams There 124 NJCAA teams
The very first video shows Clemson getting off a bus and walking onto the field. They don't show that the players boarded the bus on the opposite side of the stadium and then ride around to where they make their entrance.
Well, you guys are right that only a tiny few from these college teams go on to make it in the NFL, but this year, 2023, saw the return of two former Pro Football leagues. The XFL, which originally debuted in 2000, under the ownership and direction of Vince MacMahon of WWF/E fame. It wasn't taken very seriously as players were able to put whatever nickname on their Jersey they wanted. That iteration of the league only made it one season. But then for 2020 it was brought back with a totally new, more serious attitude and it was working. Unfortunately it was closed down due to the Covid lockdowns just halfway thru the season. It actually went backrupt during the downtime...no games, no income, right? Well, The Rock bought the league in late '21, and it redebuted this year the week after the Superbowl, with some holdover teams from 2020 and some new ones. Not all teams from 2020 made sense from a regional marketing angle. And then another old pro league made its comeback last year... the USFL, which originally debuted in 1983 and ran thru a few seasons before closing up shop due to massive corruption within the organization if i remember the story correctly. But the league came back last year and all 8 teams played out of the same city. It worked for the most part. They did it that way because they saw how having brand new teams in untested markets didn't work for the XFL in 2020. But for 2023, they split the league into two cities i believe, but maybe not...i didn't follow the league this year. But the bottom line is that both leagues now have 3 complete seasons under their belt combined, and it looks like they're here to stay. And the purpose of these leagues is to give college players and NFL players that may have lost their positions on teams, or just been cut during preseason, to have another chance to prove themselves. And honestly, it's some pretty good football. These teams are every bit as good as a college team, if not better. One of the biggest problems with the 2000 XFL launch was the severe lack of talented players. They just weren't that good. Lots of Rookie mistakes, that sort of thing...ya know? But the guys playing in the XFL and USFL now are pretty damn good. They've made some amazing plays that rival some NFL stuff. But yeah, i guess you could call these two leagues the equivalent of your lower conference soccer/football leagues. But here's my question. Since both the USFL and the XFL have just 8 teams each (which means everybody can watch every game every week) i wonder that down the road here, we may see the two leagues merge and form one 16 team Spring League. That's essentially what happened to the NFL back in 1972, i think it was when the NFL and AFL merged to form the NFL with the NFC and AFC conferences.
That why u have to finish school. Get your college degree & join the workforce. Only a small percentage of players will make it to the next level. So its good to have a degree to fall back on. Over a 150 years of traditions. Can't beat that. Blessings to all. ❤❤❤
Why did they put the text Clemson for Va Tech and Texas for Tennessee? Anyway what you guys saw is just a small sampling. Every Major program puts on a show like that coast to coast.
College football stadiums are mostly bleacher seats. They don’t care about fan comfort so they cram in as many as they can. Another thing is people choose where to go to college and pay their hard earned money. It stays with you for a life time. Careers can take you to different professional sports cities but you’ll always be home at your Alma mater.
I think its still spelled Derby, just pronounced like you spelled it, NFL is national football league. Professional football College football and all college athletics are overseen by the NCAA National collegiate athletics association
Florida state has never been to Tomahawk. They actually when they started the program like this got permission from the Seminole tribe in Florida and the teach them about the history and that’s why they are allowed to dress like chief Osceola and the tribe also provides the horse renegade.
That orange team was Tennessee not Texas. Also Texas is different than Texas A&M. Texas are the Longhorns where as Texas A&M(TAMU) are the Aggies two different schools. Each stadium has their game day entrances and traditions that are done when ever they have a home game. If it’s championship games for there respective conferences those are generally played on a neutral site
Keep in mind, the largest sports stadiums in the US are college football stadiums. And yes, they fill up every week, especially if the team is good.
Also don't forget most colleges have bench seating so they can cram fans in like sardines
Edit, just saying you could fit an extra 20k seats into every NFL stadium if you didn't have real seats.
Edit2: minus the packers
Every Tennessee fan getting pierced through the heart when they mistook them for Texas 😂
Haha. Seriously. It did hurt a little tho.
It's also awful for Texas since they thought it was the same as TAMU.
As a Texas fan, as I was "Wait! That's not burnt orange! That's Tennessee!" Then they watched the Aggie band and said they watched the Texas band. Aaaargh!
I am one of them 💔
I thought that was Tenneessee.
This is EVERY HOME GAME for EVERY 1 OF THESE TEAMS!!
That's the Tennessee Volunteers not Texas. Yes, it is an every home game thing. It is good to note that there are only 12 college football games in a team's regular season and usually 6 or 7 are home games. I'll also point out that most large college stadiums hold more capacity than the towns they are in because the towns are just college towns and nothing more. People will drive a few hours to see their college play. It's no joke. The town of Clemson in South Carolina has 17,000 people.

Those teams being misnamed is like a slap in the face for any fan of the tangs
WOW! The death threats you guys are going to get from Texas, Tennessee, and A&M fans.
Holy crap!😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

My favorite is watching Ralphie run out before Colorado games
The first entrance was Clemson.
@ 3:35 you left Clemson up, though it had changed to Virginia Tech
@ 5:25 it changed to Michigan, the Largest College Stadium in the U.S.
@ 7:00 it changed to Miami, though it is uncommon for UM to be packed.
@ 7:25 it changed to Nebraska; Coach Osborn went on to be a State Senator.
@ 9:03 it changed to Tennessee, you mistakenly took them for Texas.
@ 9:41 it changed to Florida State, {Clemson was the team they played that day}
@ 10:36 it changed to Oklahoma
@ 10:59 it changed to Georgia Tech
Nicely done (from an FSU mom)
that was not Texas, it was The Tennessee Volunteers, Florida State Seminoles, The Oklahoma Sooners ang Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
Back in the 70s I was in the USAF stationed in Nebraska and during football season the whole state went crazy. They always sold out every home game.
When they jump like that, it actually registers as a small earthquake.
The orange and white checkerboard pattern was not Texas. That was the University of Tennessee
Go Nebraska Cornhusker’s Black Shirts!!!❤❤❤ Toured their stadium when we went on vacation for our 25th Wedding Anniversary! They’re my husbands favorite college team so had to go see their stadium! When my husband turned 50 I surprised him by taking him to see the Cornhusker’s play, so much fun!❤
The closest college stadium to us is over an hour away but it’s nothing for us to drive there for a college game. College teams have their own stadiums and they are huge and usually filled if they’re a good team.
as a Florida state fan the fact you have Clemson pasted over our entrance is insulating lol but understand not really knowing the teams
@Kenny Albrecht
Hi Kenny, thanks for the comment, it was already on the video and your also correct, we would have no idea if it was wrong.
Cheers
Coach retired….the orange was Tennessee instead of Texas. Nice reaction guys.
to answer about Tom Osborne, he retired from coaching in 97 after winning 252 games and losing 48, he then came back in 2007 to become athletic director, kinda like the general manager for the entire school, that was the last home game before he retired from that post.
And in-between he found a little job as a Congressman for Nebraska.
It's a proper family day out, amazing crowds. Great experience!
Certain parts. Others are kind of people getting hammered and doing body shots of sorority girls
That hurt my soul when you called my Tennessee Volunteers Texas. Tennessee is the real UT and the real Orange. GBO VFL
I think someone else edited the video, not them. But I feel your pain!
I will give you that you are the first UT but that is NOT the good orange.
College football is the best, the rivalries and traditions are all great. Go Vols!!!
I went to VPI also known easily as Virginia Tech. A part of the school is a military school with cadets wearing uniforms and doing things like squaring their meals (moving forks or spoons forward, up, then towards your mouth).

@Blake N ruclips.net/video/DkwedgEH3gs/видео.html
Florida state (tomahawk chop team seen here) has the OK from the Seminole Tribe to keep the nickname and the traditions.
Side note: never tell a Texas fan they're the aggies and vice versa or you will get jumped
That might have been the funniest screw up…..
-Tennessee entrance ..
-Calls them Texas
-Proceeds to call Texas’ mascot the Aggies (of Texas A&M )
😂brilliant
you will learn👍🏻

Understand that a normal college football season is only 12 games. So EVERY game is important.
Tom Osborne, the former Nebraska head coach in the video was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Nebraska as well. He was a U.S. Congressman for 3 terms, which is six years.
Welcome to your average college game, where the kids go wild and the fans are even crazier.
Every week That was Tennessee, not Texas
Exactly. And the band / halftime show that they watched was Texas A & M, not Texas.
This is every Saturday for 12 weeks in college football and 17 for the NFL. NFL plays mostly on Sundays though..
These college football players don't all have a goal of the NFL. They are college students majoring in business, engineering, even the humanities and many have the military in their future. They can always be proud of being on a college football team but the majority are smart enough to know their futures lie elsewhere.

There are so many more as well! Not enough time. That was strange that they kept projecting "Clemson" on screen way beyond the Clemson clip. Same at the end over the FSU Seminoles.
Great reactions.
This is every week in college football. Obviously it’s a little more hyped for the bigger games but the atmosphere is there every Saturday
Fun fact. Nebraska’s stadium holds just above 90k people, and they have sold out every home game since the 1970’s. So, every Saturday that they have a home game, the stadium is the third largest city in the state behind Lincoln and Omaha.
Straight off the bus was still a home game, they bus them around to the main entrance.
Some of the schools are misnamed. The one that had Clemson on it was Florida State. The entrances at college games is as exciting as the game itself.
Yeah Clemson was first and Virginia Tech was Enter Sandman at the 4:00 mark mislabeled as “Clemson”
I appreciate the enthusiasm with that said you mixed up Tennessee for Texas. There are huge differences. Each school has their own traditions
Nice reaction guys, this is every weekend.
I'm partial to iowa but that's where I went. The football team comes out to back in black ACDC. Others come out to Enter sandman Metallica, etc. On our 3rd down, it's crazy train Ozzie, so we make a lot of noise so the other team can't hear plays 😊. Can't wait to go back and play in the Hawkeye alumni marching band at homecoming.
So I went to a military high school and all the students were required to go to our football games so we had a minimum of 1000 people at our games. The rush from just that many people I can’t even imagine what it’s like playing in front of 90 thousand people like some of these kids!
Our beautiful guys.
I live in/near a tiny college town with a medium sized school and the hoopla is the same. My son played recreational league football as a child and then on his high school team. The local schools have full stadiums on Friday nights. I live in North Carolina and NC State’s basketball program shares a stadium with a National Hockey League team (Carolina Hurricanes).
Just Saturday Night Football.
College football is different than nfl in the sense of fans. People tend to have more tradition and pride for college because most fans have ties to the university through attending or a family member attending. The yellow crowd is a a stadium that will seat 111,000 and squeezes in more quite often!!
Texas has a longhorn head on their helmet, the T on the helmet is Tennessee
That gentlemen was new to me and seriously impressive. Thank you both. Can I request you react to The Angels singing " After the rain" live at Nsrrara. Great Australian rock band. Their lead guitarist does not move at all, rather unusual
Cheers 🇭🇲
You have Taxas over the University of Tenneessee stadium !!!!
Guys at 9:15 THAT IS NOT TEXAS, ITS TENNESSEE
Hello from Ohio, USA. These are all regular season games!
The University of Texas are the longhorns featuring Bevo; school color is burnt orange.
Americans are so serious about their college football that many people often put their kids on the season ticket waiting list, as soon as they are born. LOL The 'yellow' stadium is ours. University of Michigan & the stadium is known as 'The Big House' & holds 110,000 & it is full for every game. Our colors are blue & 'maize'. 'Go Blue'!
The bright color section is where the students of the school sits.
That was Tennessee not Texas. This is an every week occurance. It helps get everyone fired up for the games.
The largest football stadiums in the USA are college football stadiums
Virginia Techs Enter Sandman is insane
University of Michigan Stadium, "The Big House" 107,000+
That's every weekend in football season in the south go vols
College football is BIG MONEY for the colleges and for the tv networks!
Valerie Burris High School games are played on Thursday and Friday nights ,College games are played on Thursday and Saturday .NFL games are played on Sunday ,Monday and Thursday nights.
I guess different conferences may play college football on Thursday but I've never been to a college game on Thursday. Interesting though I'll have to look that up
I live about 15 mins to Clemson and if you’re not apart of the Saturday crowd there, you might as well stay at home because you’re not getting through there easily.
Some of these states like South Carolina doesn’t have an NFL team so college football is the next sport obsession
Every game day 🤘🤘
@9:30 Sorry guys, that is the Tennessee Volunteers, not the University of Texas Longhorns......nor the Texas A&M University Aggies.
Yep sorry about that!... mistake!
Michigan's stadium holds about 128,000 people
Try watching the Colorado University entrance. They have a BUFFALO!!!
Yeah the second one, “Enter Sandman” is for the Virginia Tech Hokies in Blacksburg, Virginia. All the bouncing/jumping they do registers on a Richter scale like an earthquake. Va. Tech schools a lot of architects and engineers so the stadium is well taken care of.
@Blake N Boo Hoo
You get a free education. 😎🇺🇲👍🌟💯
Clemson plays in a stadium called Death Valley! Top attendance is 86k fans! Michigan has a capacity of 107K people, which is the biggest for college FB!! Miami has a capacity of 65K. Nebraska best capacity 91K. Texas A and M or Aggies, have 102K capacity for football...that one is crazy big--I had no idea! Texas--that is the Texas Longhorns---capacity of 100k. Florida State capacity 79k, there nickname is Seminoles. An American Indian Tribe...and some teams still do the CHOP---some have stopped. One more not on the video was Penn State (which is in the middle of nowhere) 106K!! There is some info for you gents over there in the UK! Great review as usual! Enjoy the American Footy!! Mistake from the T in the video---it should be Tennessee, my mistake...looked at to quickly! They have a stadium with a capacity of almost 102K!
You had Clemson written accross the screen for Virginia Tech
You are right, that these players do not get paid by the Universities to play.
Though, a recent rule passed, which allows these players to monetize their
names, through promotional deals and ad revenue. The sad reality, is that
those who will receive the highest amounts from this, are the ones who will be
good enough to make it into the nfl. In fact, one a player in the last week, just
got a release from his obligation to play for a school, because he was offered
$13 million over 4 years {$3.25 million per year} and the people who pledged
that money, could not generate the amount promised.
The downside, is most of these players will never play the sport again post their
College years. The upside, is that the are scholarship players, attending school
for free, and receiving a University diploma. So they are able to go forward and
utilize their education in finding a career.
What you were watching, were entrances from some of the highest generating
programs in the country. So, where we similarities in league level with the UK
is at the College Division Level.
The Highest Level is Div 1 FBS [Football Bowl Subdivision] -- 131 teams
Then below that is Div 1 FCS [Football Championship Subdivision] -- 124 teams
Below that is Division 2 -- 169 teams
Then Division 3 -- 249 teams
Those are all NCAA [National Collegiate Athletics Association] Divisions
Rarely does a guy from the lower divisions, but it does occasionally happen.
Under that, there are other College Leagues who compete outside of the NCAA.
They are the NAIA [National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics]
and beneath even that is the NJCAA [National Junior College Athletic Association]
which we generally refer to as JUCO, for Junior College.
There are 100 NAIA teams
There 124 NJCAA teams
Tom Osbourne left Nebraska football and ran for Congress in Nebraska. And won.
Who ever put the names of the schools on the screen managed to miss every one of them.😆
The very first video shows Clemson getting off a bus and walking onto the field. They don't show that the players boarded the bus on the opposite side of the stadium and then ride around to where they make their entrance.
Wondering why Clemson was plastered over the Virginia Tech and Florida State entrances?
@Robert T
Hi Robert, that was on the original video that we used and to be honest Clemson would have meant nothing to us two.
Cheers
These are regular season games. Championship games are ar neutral site stadiums.
Well, you guys are right that only a tiny few from these college teams go on to make it in the NFL, but this year, 2023, saw the return of two former Pro Football leagues. The XFL, which originally debuted in 2000, under the ownership and direction of Vince MacMahon of WWF/E fame. It wasn't taken very seriously as players were able to put whatever nickname on their Jersey they wanted. That iteration of the league only made it one season. But then for 2020 it was brought back with a totally new, more serious attitude and it was working. Unfortunately it was closed down due to the Covid lockdowns just halfway thru the season. It actually went backrupt during the downtime...no games, no income, right? Well, The Rock bought the league in late '21, and it redebuted this year the week after the Superbowl, with some holdover teams from 2020 and some new ones. Not all teams from 2020 made sense from a regional marketing angle.
And then another old pro league made its comeback last year... the USFL, which originally debuted in 1983 and ran thru a few seasons before closing up shop due to massive corruption within the organization if i remember the story correctly. But the league came back last year and all 8 teams played out of the same city. It worked for the most part. They did it that way because they saw how having brand new teams in untested markets didn't work for the XFL in 2020. But for 2023, they split the league into two cities i believe, but maybe not...i didn't follow the league this year. But the bottom line is that both leagues now have 3 complete seasons under their belt combined, and it looks like they're here to stay. And the purpose of these leagues is to give college players and NFL players that may have lost their positions on teams, or just been cut during preseason, to have another chance to prove themselves. And honestly, it's some pretty good football. These teams are every bit as good as a college team, if not better. One of the biggest problems with the 2000 XFL launch was the severe lack of talented players. They just weren't that good. Lots of Rookie mistakes, that sort of thing...ya know? But the guys playing in the XFL and USFL now are pretty damn good. They've made some amazing plays that rival some NFL stuff. But yeah, i guess you could call these two leagues the equivalent of your lower conference soccer/football leagues. But here's my question. Since both the USFL and the XFL have just 8 teams each (which means everybody can watch every game every week) i wonder that down the road here, we may see the two leagues merge and form one 16 team Spring League. That's essentially what happened to the NFL back in 1972, i think it was when the NFL and AFL merged to form the NFL with the NFC and AFC conferences.
That why u have to finish school. Get your college degree & join the workforce. Only a small percentage of players will make it to the next level. So its good to have a degree to fall back on. Over a 150 years of traditions. Can't beat that. Blessings to all. ❤❤❤
Lol dont guess on the locations of the teams great vid though
Why did they put the text Clemson for Va Tech and Texas for Tennessee?
Anyway what you guys saw is just a small sampling. Every Major program puts on a show like that coast to coast.
These are Home Games. Teams travel just like NFL teams do.
College football stadiums are mostly bleacher seats. They don’t care about fan comfort so they cram in as many as they can. Another thing is people choose where to go to college and pay their hard earned money. It stays with you for a life time. Careers can take you to different professional sports cities but you’ll always be home at your Alma mater.
Big mistake in the video. At 14:39 that was NOT the Texas Longhorns, that was the Tennessee Volunteers.
Just to clarify guy's these games are equivalent to what the English call a local Darby.
@Limited Edition
Hello and thanks for the clarification, we appreciate it.
Cheers
@@BritPopsReact Sure Cheers. 🍻
I think its still spelled Derby, just pronounced like you spelled it,
NFL is national football league. Professional football
College football and all college athletics are overseen by the NCAA
National collegiate athletics association
The players actually do get paid now. Even up to 6 or 7 figures
Remember these players for the most part come out with degrees.
Florida state has never been to Tomahawk. They actually when they started the program like this got permission from the Seminole tribe in Florida and the teach them about the history and that’s why they are allowed to dress like chief Osceola and the tribe also provides the horse renegade.
Go Blue
why was the word CLEMSON left over it ? Copyright ?
@Kevin Clements
Hi Kevin, usually it is getting blocked so we place text over the top
this is every week mate.
That orange team was Tennessee not Texas. Also Texas is different than Texas A&M. Texas are the Longhorns where as Texas A&M(TAMU) are the Aggies two different schools. Each stadium has their game day entrances and traditions that are done when ever they have a home game. If it’s championship games for there respective conferences those are generally played on a neutral site
