A Naples friend dresses a skeleton to support her teams on Game Day. Crimson-and-white with IU on Saturday for Indiana University, blue-and-white with a horseshoe on Sunday for the Indianapolis Colts.
My alma mater wasn't much of a threat in intercollegiate sports. But, I grew up in Eastern Massachusetts so I cheer for the Boston Red Sox/Celtics/Bruins and New England Patriots.
For college sports, I adopt teams from places I have lived: the UConn Huskies and Ohio State Buckeyes. Ohio State's football team is ranked #1 nationally and my friend's Indiana Hoosiers are #2. OSU and IU don't play each other this fall. If both get to the Big Ten championship and later to the national championship game, my friend and I won't be talking for a while.

Some people take college sports far too seriously. It all started with college students having fun, but has become grim big money events now. The players in your photos don't look healthy. ;-) SDSU, my employer of 30 years, were humiliated on the football field Saturday evening when they played NDSU, their arch rival.
