Last night, Tim Tebow led the Florida Gators to a BCS Championship over the Oklahoma Sooners. A fantastic finish to the College Football season... a season that didn't include an NYU Football team.
It's pretty unlikely NYU will have any of its own Tim Tebows soon. And so while there may be a "Gator Nation" partying it up this weekend, "Bobcat Nation" remains just a pipe dream.
But at least one college this year is planning on joining the football fun in the near future: University of Charlotte.
The school's board of trustees voted in November to start a football program by 2013. The school must raise about $45 million to pay for coaches, scholarships and a 12,000-seat, on-campus stadium.
How does this help us NYU fans? Well, it provides a blueprint as to how a large university can create a football team from scratch.
With enough student, alumni and administration support, this can happen people.
