    The thing to realize about college sports (especially football and basketball) in the US, is that the country is so big, lots of places are a long distance from the cities where professional sports are located. Even places like Los Angeles, where USC and UCLA are located, were once a long distance from professional sports, until the late 40s, and college alumni are notoriously devoted to their teams.

    Two of my favorite entrances are the Nebraska vs. Rice 9/20/01 tunnel walk and the 2019 Nebraska Spring Game tunnel walk. The game against Rice was the first home game after 9/11 and had first responders walk out of the tunnel before the players.
    In March of 2019 Nebraska experienced some of the worst flooding in the past 50 years. Flood damage for just Nebraska was an estimated $1.3 billion with almost $1billion of it crop and livestock losses. The Huskers put together a video tribute, carried out the state flag instead of the American flag, and lined the field with first responders instead of the band. One State, One Heartbeat.

    One thing to keep in mind is that America's population is so big at 330 million plus that a lot of colleges and universities likewise have huge student populations. For example my university was 35,000 students in an average school year, and that's just one of over 100 such large schools in the country. Then there's hundreds more medium and smaller sized public and private colleges and universities spread all over the country too.

    When I got my 2nd Degree I was in my late 20s. College experience in America is what u make of it. While ur right there are some things that might be different because of age u can still do most of it if u want. Example.
    I was 27 when I started getting my 2nd degree. I was fresh out of the military and was a pretty good athlete in several sports. So I went out for two college sports, Cross Country Running and Wreslting and won medals in them. And I did intramurals in football, did InterVasity, worked played Risk staring at midnight at the earliest and going all night and many other things I had a blast. Most of my friends from this college were 19 to 22. Tho most people guessed me at 20-22 when I was 27 to 29. And I was at a small college. Go to a mid size to large college they have more things for so called older, non traditional students.

    Oh and one thing I forgot about my Huskers. During the Tunnel walk both sides of the tunnel are lined with fans wishing the team well and hoping to get a High Five from the players. And the Defense for Nebraska is known as the Black Shirts. While we are working at getting all of the way back to the kind of football we played from the 70s-2004 * we won 5 National Championships, 2 in the 70s and three in the 90s and then our coaches retired. Last year the Huskers were called the best 3 win team in the country. Half of out games were top ten ranked teams when we played them and we lost usually by 7 pts or less. we had two losses above that. One as an 8 pt. loss and the other a 9 pt. loss.
    I think this year we finally hit a ten win season again and keep moving up and back to what we once were.

    The university of Florida team runs out of a alligator’s mouth during games as an intimidating gesture to the other team. It’s always fun to see. The Florida state Seminole counter with the Seminole charge with an native Seminole warrior galloping out on horseback while the team keeps pace behind the warrior, the warrior will plant a decorative war spear into the ground on the sidelines as a hey you wanna fight symbol. The Florida and Florida state rivalry is legendary as the two schools were created around the same time but are bitter rivals on the field but off we are cool with each other. Miami likes to create the storm where fog machines create the cloud that looks like the leading edge of a real hurricane. The university of central Florida Knights are a completely different division but last year switched around to actually face Florida in a game which central Florida was slaughtered. UCF is more family friendly and eschews any intimation instead using a playful knight mascot that is at every event like fundraising. UCF is more the family friendly team in the division as they are seen mostly as the laughingstock team but they get the job done most of the time. Of course I live in Orlando where UCF is but honestly it’s a good school just laughed at because of their nature.

    Most large colleges have at least a decent sport program. There are exceptions but not many. A good sport team could rarely hold back one of the predominant teams. Again, there are notable exceptions. Some of the smaller stadiums have just as 'charged' an atmosphere. You know you don't have to go to school there to enjoy the game. Just pick a few you want to visit & come see them. Oh, they aren't all football like in this video. Basketball, Baseball (to a lessor degree), even some Lacrosse teams.

    It's so fun to watch your enthusiasm, regardless of the topic.
    In case you didn't get which stadiums/teams were which, here's my list: 1) Clemson, 2) (Hokies) VA Tech, 3) you knew Michigan, 4) Notre Dame, 5) NE (In case you didn't catch it, this was the very successful coach's last game before retirement.), 6) (orange team) U. of Tennessee, 7) (the horse mascot and rider) Florida State Seminoles and the rider commemorates a real historic chief of that tribe--Chief Osceola (ah-see-OH-luh--1804--1838), and their original home was FL. 8) The last one before your system went down was the Gamecocks of the U. of S. Carolina.
    Along with David Edmondson's suggestion, you ought to schedule a drum corps show in early to mid August, as that's close to when the DCI finals take place, and the corps have all had all summer to get their show into top form for the DCI Finals in Indianapolis, or the actual Finals night on a Saturday in mid-August.

    Michigan has the Largest College stadium in America.
    Nebraska is my team. And on Day games a lot of times they will have Fly overs. It gets so loud at times that the other teams cannot hear when to hike the ball and have to do a silent count. And the Huskers have Longest Home Game Sellout Streak in College Football. They have sold out every home game since the Missouri Game in 1962. And going into this season we have 379 straight sellouts. Oh and Nebraska has the 14th largest Stadium in College Football, seating over 85,000 people. Colors are officially scarlet and cream. And we have one of the most historic programs in the country.
    I have been able to afford going to one home game and it was Amazing!!!! Back in 2010 when we played Missouri for the last time as a part of the B12. The place was Rockin. We Beat Mizzou who was rated 8 places higher in the National rankings. And for me what was cool is our running back set a new single game rushing record at 307 yards. If he would have gotten just two more yards rushing he would have run one yard for every game we had conseculatively sold out to that point which was 309. And I know where I was sitting and know I was on TV during two of his Long TD runs that day.
    Oh and a tradition they have is on the 1st TD they release Red helium filled balloons that now are biodegradable.
    GO BIG RED!!! Oh and Husker Fans are KNOWN for two things. 1) Being the most knowledgeable Fans in College Football. 2) That they travel well in support of the team. Many times there are more Nebraska Fans at away games than there are home team fans.
    One last thing. On Game Day during the game Any home game. Nebraska's Football stadium has the 3rd largest population or as they like to say is the 3rd largest city in the state.

    It has been called, "The Big House" and seats over 100,000 people.

    Yes, college football is the most popular spectator sport in North America. People get very excited about it. Note however that only a relative handful of the biggest schools with the best teams, are in the leagues (err, "conferences") that draw large crowds like this (Big Ten, Pac Ten, etc.). (Oh, and there's also Notre Dame, in Indiana, which is a special case. Notre Dame isn't technically in any of the major conferences but routinely plays non-league games against teams that are in them, including top-rated Big Ten teams. Not sure how that tradition got started.) *Most* colleges have a much more mundane sports program that's really only followed by the students and a few of the alumni.

    LOL idk what to preface my comment with (about stadium size) so I'll just get right into it 😄
    I live in San Diego, CA, area, and for several decades there was a major stadium just northwest of where Interstates 8 and 15 cross, which could be seen from both freeways. The San Diego Chargers (NFL) played there from 1967 (when the stadium opened) until a few years ago when they moved to L.A., and the San Diego Padres (MLB) played there from 1969 to 2003 when they moved to Petco Park in downtown San Diego. The stadium (which went by various names over the years) also hosted a few NFL Super Bowls and MLB All-Star games. According to Wikipedia (under "San Diego Stadium"), it's the only stadium to host a Super Bowl and a World Series in the same year - 1998, and is one of 3 stadiums to host the World Series, Super Bowl and MLB All-Star games.
    In 2020, the stadium was sold to San Diego State University (where my brother and dad both attended although they weren't into football, my brother did some basketball in high school though), and was demolished (had kind-of gotten run down basically) and a new stadium is under construction on the same property, scheduled to open Fall 2022, for the San Diego State Aztecs.

    As many others here have stated, college football is a BIG deal here in the US, especially in the South. I grew up a Florida State fan in the 90s, and I highly recommend you watch a video about Bobby Bowden, FSU's longtime coach and considered by many to be the best to ever do it.

    University of Michigan grad here, class of 1972. Football is a game where the fans expect to see some mayhem on the field. The players know, in advance, that the chance they will have bones break, or joints ripped apart, during a game are significant. Part of playing football is an intent to hurt the players on the other team. It's a brutal sport. Maybe boxing is the only other sport I can think of where you anticipate being beat up before a match, although I suppose that is an element of rugby, too. Yes, the players can be huge.
    Even at the college level you will find some really bid boys donning those uniforms and taking the field. The offensive linemen, in paticular, on ever top division team somewhere in the area of 375 lbs. U. of M. stadium holds about 110,000 including standing room. Because the players get beaten up so much by the end of each game, they can only play once a week, and the season is about 13 weeks long, making each game vital to a team's overall record. In order to get the players jacked up to sacrifice their bodies for victory, all these traditional entrances have evolved to tie the team and the fans together in spirit, not only with themselves, but with the ghosts of those who came before them. The fans are a bit of a different story. They have alcohol to get them geeked up for the games. Parties start on campus in mid-morning for a 1:00 p.m. game, and just got transported to the game for awhile, then back to the original sits after the game is over.
    All week long the students talk about the upcoming game on Saturday and how much they hate the visiting team if it is a "rivalry" game coming up.
    Ah...college. The greatest combination of adult privileges combined with almost zero responsibilities ever conceived by mankind.

    For me the most impressive opening is for Annapolis and the Naval Academy. All of the midshipmen (students) enter the stadium in rank and file. When they are all in place they turn and face the opposing teams fans and salute them. and then run like crazy to get seats to watch the game. ua-cam.com/video/ByloPPzFOz8/v-deo.html

    Everything you said about American entertainment culture is correct, as are the comments about college teams' importance to specific regions.
    One additional reason college football has these displays is because the of the sport itself. Football has lots of stoppages; so bands, cheerleaders, and drumlines are already part of the experience to entertain the fans during these periods. They just turn it up to 11 at the entrances to hype the fans up. The College football season is also incredibly short at 12 games, with only 7-8 max being home games. This is because the sport is so brutal on the body. Anyway, such a small number of home games makes every game feel like a huge event for the area. Compare that to the 81 home games professional baseball plays, or 41 home games professional basketball and hockey play.

    Football was invented by colleges and predates the pro game by decades. It evolved on the college campus over the years into what you see today, so the heart of the sport will always be on campus. The pros put on a good show but it's a business and they'll never match the passion, loyalty, energy or rivalries that go back 120 years or more in some cases. Yes, we take football seriously all across the country.
