I don't watch much college sports, except for the NCAA tournament, which I enjoy. I do watch a little bit of U of H games during football and basketball season, just because that's my home team and I went to school there a couple years.
Even college sports is going away from regional play with all the realignment. UH is in the Big 12 and sorry to tell you, they are adding 4 west coast teams next season.
Like I said, I never have really been big into college sports, but I do know many who like them more than pro sports. The only season I really look forward to is the NFL season. I could watch the Texans every week of the year. I was the same way with the Oilers. Baseball and basketball seasons are far far too long for me.
