"The Religion Of SEC Football" Is A Real College Course

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- You may have heard of some outrageous course titles in your college years, like "Demystifying the Hipster" at Tufts University Experimental College, "Feminist Perspectives: Politicizing Beyoncé" at Rutgers University, or even "Tree Climbing," yes tree climbing, at Cornell University, but you can now take a 'Religion of SEC Football' class and earn college credit at a school in South Carolina.

The class description is as follows:

"Woo Pig Sooie!? Roll Tide!? Go Cocks!? What is it about college football that turns otherwise sane people into raving lunatics? Why is it that each fall millions of people schedule their lives around SEC football, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars for RV's and tailgating for days prior to a game? Why do fans often hate another school -- such as the 'Bama fan who poisoned 130-year old trees at Auburn? This class will attempt to answer these sorts of questions by exploring the 'religion' of Southeastern Conference football and how each of us fit into that faith."

Would this be something you would add to your fall schedule?
