Yeah, I could see that. I think it’s for a couple reasons:
1. The NFL is just head and shoulders above any other sports or league in popularity.
2. We as Utahns don’t have a pro team, and are biased toward college athletics.
But in the Seattle case – it’s the friggin CFP against Alabama, and still no W’s? Seems weird, right?
I wanted a buy a UW shirt just because no one else had one, they are in our conference and aren’t USC and I have a ton of respect for Chris Petersen. He, along with us, was once one of the little guys that helped shake things up in modern college football.
