[quote=Anonymous]A reason why college sports are so uniquely important to America is also due to its size. There aren't professional sports teams for each one of our 50 states, but there is a college team. America is so big that the culture and lifestyle can differ quite a bit a few states over, so people don't feel super connected rooting for a professional team several states away. Colleges fill that gap. Imagine if Italy was deemed too small of a market to have a soccer team, so the closest professional team they could root for was Germany's. [/quote]
