I graduated from the University of Florida in 2006, but my body clock is still set to the rhythms of Gainesville. That means July is summer B, fall practice is in a few weeks, Butler Plaza will be swarming with people buying EA Sports NCAA Football and the opening of College Football will be here sooner than you think.

To celebrate the return of college football and the release of EA Sports' NCAA Football 2011 on Tuesday, July 13, EA Sports is sponsoring a week of posts on Alligator Army and dozens of SBNation websites. The posts are to honor you; the fans of College Football.

Starting today and through the release of NCAA Football 2011 on Tuesday, July 13 we will have posts every day about what it means to be a Gators fan. The first will be "How I Became A Florida Gators Fan" and will follow with these posts;

Tuesday, July 6: All-Time Favorite Gators Team

Wednesday, July 7: Tailgating Traditions

Thursday, July 8: All-Time Favorite Florida Gators

Friday, July 9: Most Memorable Moments

Monday, July 12: Expectations For 2010 Season

Tuesday, July 13: Release Of EA Sports NCAA Football 2011.

For each post, tell us your thoughts in the comments and let us know how you became a Florida Gators fan.

I became a Gator in 96

I was 5 years old and i was watching the FSU-UF rematch Sugar Bowl with my dad. Who is a very big FSU fan. So like every little kid trying to out wit their father i started rooting for the Gators and when they won that game and stormed the field i knew id be a gator for life, best decision ive ever made.
