I'll make the argument that UW has a good football team and that's entertaining to watch, but UW Football fans are unnatural carnal knowledgeing insufferable. I believe I've been told that UW badger fans invented (wrote?) Jump Around, the wave, the slow wave and the fast wave. Apparently UW is the only school with a football program with tradition.

I have been a UW Football fan since I was kid, because it was the only D1 college football around, and it was a good time on fall Saturdays.    Badger football, as we now know it, started in 1990 when King Barry came to town.  We all know the reality of Jump Around and the other stuff.

Evanston is closer than Madison.  Root for Northwestern.

Had friends at Madison during my MU years and I lingered for many a "Fifth Quarter"  I was invited to the Rose Bowl last year by some alumni and enjoyed it. didn't have a dog in the hunt so I wasn't as bummed as some. that said, Wiscy football is fun to watch

Closer to what?  I live 42 minutes from Camp Randall.

Root for Northwestern.  That is as much fun as a rectal exam.  Say what you will about Badger BB.... Badger FB is great fun.

I equate watching college football with minor league baseball, except the football players are paid better.  Regardless, there's no way I'm rooting for Bucky.

...and that tradition started way back in the mid-1990s, shortly before the basketball program's tradition began.
