The college I attended, Boston University, hasn't had a football team since 1997. Even then it was a D1-AA squad, so not exactly SEC-caliber. That is a square kick in the nuts for a sports fan like me, but attending a university with a business school in a big city was the priority at the time. I couldn't, however, go through life without bathing in the college football experience. Therefore, I've made an effort to visit numerous venues in my time on this earth. This idea has morphed into an annual college football trip for a few buddies and I who all crave the college football atmosphere.

Our trip is now in its sixth year. So far we’ve been to Wisconsin, the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party in Jacksonville (otherwise known as Florida vs. Georgia), Mississippi, Nebraska, and Alabama (for last year’s epic game against LSU). On my own I’ve also traveled to Michigan, Purdue, North Carolina, Notre Dame, and Florida. We definitely had our fun at all those locations, but we’re looking for something new.

Usually we try to chase the best game of the year, but we’re wondering if we should focus more on the location now that our years of balling out like rock stars might be running out. Even though I’m swinging single and acting like I’m still in college, we’ve got one married guy and one guy who’s basically married in the crew. The schedule's a little tight for a few people this year, so only three weeks in November are available.

With all that in mind, I’m looking to the readers to help me decide where to go for this year’s adventure. Here are the 10 choices we’re looking at. Sound Off in the comments section to help persuade us one way or another.

November 3: Oregon @ USC

This game shapes up as one of the two best games of the year. USC is finally off probation after their recent scandal, and they're primed to make a run at the national title. Oregon, meanwhile, has been the best team in the Pac-12 over the last three years. They've got a high-flying offense and are surely fun to watch. The biggest issue with this game is the venue. While it's nice to see a game at the Memorial Coliseum for historical sake, it's not like seeing a game on a real college campus. We'd likely spend all our time in Beverly Hills, Hollywood, or out by Santa Monica. The game is as good as it gets, but the setting leaves something to be desired. Generally the chicks are hot in L.A., but their personalities kill me at times.

November 3: Ole Miss @ Georgia
or
November 17: Georgia Southern @ Georgia

Anyone who's been to Georgia has told me it's one of the greatest college towns in the country and offers one of the greatest college football experiences. Georgia is poised to make a big run this year with quarterback Aaron Murray, but their home schedule is terrible. They have no quality opponents coming to town, which helps their title chances, but does me no favors when trying to find a game. One positive is that the word on the street is that Georgia girls are as hot as they come. Do we go to Athens before we get any older or do we hold off for a better home game next year?

November 3: Illinois @ Ohio State

Columbus is known as one of the better game days in the Big Ten, so the desire to get out to O-H-I-O for a game is very present. Urban Meyer will bring success to Ohio State football; it just may be a couple years away. It may be worth waiting for a better team and a better game than they have in our available weeks.

November 10: Georgia @ Auburn

Once again we investigate the possibility of a good Georgia team, but this time it's in a road game against Auburn. Auburn at least presents a credible threat as an opponent to provide an entertaining game. While not judged as one of the best SEC venues, the atmosphere would likely provide a very fun weekend. The chicks there would probably not hurt the cause either, but my sources tell me they’re a notch below the cream of the SEC crop.

November 10: Iowa State @ Texas

Oh how I long to go to Austin, Texas. Everyone describes it as one of their favorite places in America and yet I've still never been. The women are hot, the food is good, and the scene during college football weekends is supposed to be top notch. It's right up there with Georgia on the list of places I need to get to at some point in my life. Alas, it has the same issue as Georgia this year — a terribly boring home schedule with a really poor option on the weeks we're investigating. The team itself is also undergoing a bit of an adjustment period as it's not as good as it used to be. Does football take a back seat to the rest or do we hold out?

November 10: Missouri @ Tennessee

Rocky Top ain’t what it used to be. The football program has suffered in recent years and Tennessee has become second fiddle to other SEC super powers. There is one redeeming aspect to the team right now and that's their quarterback. Tyler Bray is projected as a top-five pick in next year's NFL Draft and might even go as high as #1. The question is whether or not that, the third largest college football stadium, and a slew of attractive women is enough to move the meter.

November 10: Arkansas @ South Carolina

When talking to a former Auburn student on Friday night, he told me South Carolina was up there with the best SEC atmospheres he’s witnessed. While I expected it to be good time, I never expected to hear it’s one of the best. Now I’m kind of intrigued. The weekend could also be packaged with some time in Charleston, which was great when I visited it for a bachelor party last year. On the football side, this game shapes up to be one of the best in the SEC this year. Arkansas was headed for a place in the national title conversation before the Bobby Petrino stuff went down. South Carolina’s talent right up there as well, so this might provide the perfect storm in all three categories.
