NFL Vs. NCAA

The choice of seeing an NFL game or a college football game.

NFL Vs. NCAA

If you had the chance to see either an NFL game or a college Division 1 game, which would you pick? There are many differences between seeing an NFL game or a college game and here are a few.

The Pricing

The average price of an NFL game is around 100 bucks for crappy seats. You're looking at a few hundred dollars to sit closer to the field. Best advice is to see preseason games. For around 85 bucks, you can have lower level seats for most stadiums.

College is a bit different. Most students get first pick of seats in the student section but they are all reasonably priced seats for students. Alumni get discounts on season tickets, and the non seasoned ticketed seats get sold to the public. The average cost is, again, around $100, which is not that bad but depending on the game, and who the opponent is, will effect the cost of seats of the game.

Atmosphere

Going to see a college game is electrifying. At any Penn State University game there are about 100,000 people in the stadium. There is nothing like sitting in a stadium with that many people chanting "LET'S GO PSU!" It really makes you proud to support that team. Now, if you're not familiar with the different chants that the crowd makes, no worries, it's really easy to catch on. You don't go to college games just to see a team play football, you go for the experience, and entertainment.

NFL games are more serious. These fans are older, and more willing to scream and curse you out of the stadium if you're not supporting the home team. Take caution with seeing an NFL game and not supporting the home team. But if you do support the home team, then you are welcomed with open arms. No matter the game being played, the high intensity of the team brings the stadium to life and watching your favorite professional players play is like a dream to some.

Final conclusion:

It's up to the individual to choose either an NFL or an NCAA game. But if you want the experience of witnessing a truly entertaining game with the fans, then college is your go to, but if you are into seeing raw talent play on the field then NFL is your choice.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
