Living in Alabama you have to choose a team — Alabama or Auburn. In the 1960’s I married into an Alabama family. Beginning in September, Saturday afternoons were set aside for football. We all gathered in the patriarch’s family room around a small TV screen. Thank God it was in color. I flipped through magazines and observed the ritual.
College time rolled around and my oldest daughter headed off to Alabama. That year we got an early Christmas present — tickets to see the Alabama/Auburn game. That was the day I was converted.
I still find there are nuisances to the game I don’t understand. So I decided to see if there was a girls’ guide to football. And sure enough, I found several. Here are links to three —
