We asked our staff, “Who do you root for during football season?” Find out our favorite teams in this month’s Staff Sound-Off.
“My team is the Florida State Seminoles and anyone playing against the Gators. There is a renewed sense of pride and excitement for Seminole fans due to our new head coach Willie Taggart, so I can’t wait for this season to start. Go, ’Noles!”
— Kelly Tyner, director of sales and marketing
“Obviously, the University of Kentucky. I don’t have an NFL team, so I just root for Kentucky, as I prefer college sports better.”
— Kyle Anderson, sales, and marketing coordinator
“I was a big fan of the Indianapolis Colts during the Peyton Manning era. The team hasn’t fared as well since his departure, but I still enjoy seeing him in TV commercials.”
— Brian Jewell, executive editor
“F-L-O-R-I-D-A S-T-A-T-E Florida State! Florida State! Florida State! Woooooooo!!!!!”
— Ashley Ricks, circulation and social media manager
“I don’t have any particular allegiances, but if I have to pick someone, it’s usually the underdog.”
— Savannah Osbourn, staff writer
“Boomer Sooner baby!”
— Donia Simmons, creative director
