I grew up in Houston until I was 20 and still follow all Houston pro sports teams, plus the Dallas Cowboys. I HATE Bud Adams for moving the Oilers and taking the best logo of all time and killing it in Nashville.

I arrived at University of Utah in 2003 during their uprising to national promise in football with Urban Meyer. I am not a complete homer since University of Texas was my college team I rooted for while growing up and then switched teams once I went to Utah.

Started the Mountain West Connection in 2007 joined SB Nation in August 2009 and do my best to treat all teams equal and not be a blatant homer for Utah.

College football is by far my most favorite sport where I believe to have a minor (make that a major) obsession.
