Game day and God Fri, 20 Jun 2008 11:10:48 -0500
Eric Bain-Selbo likes football - and his favorite team is at his alma mater, the University of Tennessee.
“I grew up in the South,” he said. “Tennessee football takes up my fall. It means something to me.”
Bain-Selbo, the head of Western Kentucky University’s Philosophy and Religion Department, believes it takes up other people’s time, too, but in a more profound way. He had heard before that football functions as a religion for some people in the South.
“There are people who have season tickets, tailgate at every game. They’re like the ones who sit in the front pew at church,” he said. “They are really devoted. Game day is like Sunday for the church-goer.”
He found that church and football are similar in many ways: They each have a day of worship - Saturday for football, Sunday for church; both have large congregations; both have rituals and symbols; and both help build a sense of community.
“There are things found in college football that give rise to religion. It functions for people in religious ways,” he said. “Sports is a huge part of American culture. For millions of people, sports play a major role in their lives. As a scholar, I want to figure out what that means.”
With this in mind, Bain-Selbo decided to tackle the subject in a book, “Game Day and God: Football, Faith, and Politics in the American South.” He started researching it in the spring of 2005. The book, which will be published by University of Mercer Press, will be part of a sports and religion series written by various authors and is scheduled to be released next year.
“I have a completed draft and hope to get it to the publisher by Aug. 1,” he said. “I’ve had people reading it, so I’ve made revisions.”
Bain-Selbo decided to write the book after talking to a colleague from Centre College in Danville at the American Academy of Religion meeting who told him about a book he had been working on about basketball and religion.
“I thought that if you’re going to do sports in the South, you’ve got to do football,” he said. “It was fun to do the research. It might be an effective way to introduce people to thinking about religion.”
During his research, Bain-Selbo visited several campuses in Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama. He visited the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Ala., twice to learn more about legendary coach Paul “Bear” Bryant. He saw fan letters and replies from Bryant.
“They weren’t form letters. He picked out things from the letters,” he said of Bryant’s replies. “I got a sense of how fans felt about him and what they would write to him.”
Bain-Selbo created a survey to help in his research.
“I’m not a research scientist so I’m careful about what I say about the data,” he said. “The book is more interpretive than anything else.”
Next, he interviewed hundreds of college football fans. To help him in his research, he talked to tailgaters and people on the Internet.
“I went to fan forums,” he said. “I would post descriptions of what I was writing. I would say that I’m writing about football in the South.”
When he told people he was writing about football as religion, they would often get suspicious, particularly since Bain-Selbo was living in Pennsylvania at the time.
“I think they thought, ‘Here’s this Yankee writing a book to make fun of us,’ ” he said. “I think their suspicions were cultural.”
After interviewing hundreds of fans, he found that people fell into two camps.
“They would either say that religion is religion and football is football or they would say, ‘Yeah, I know what you’re talking about,’ ” he said. “People would fall into either extreme.”
For the real faithful in either case, it’s something more than entertainment, Bain-Selbo said.
“The something more is something they have in common - or not,” he said. “Religion is not just something we do in a church. It’s something fundamental to us as human beings. We do it in different settings.”
Eric Bain-Selbo found the following results in his survey for his book, “Game Day and God: Football, Faith, and Politics in the American South:”
33 percent of respondents ranked their college football team to be higher in importance in their lives than church.
39 percent ranked their college football team higher than church in regard to where they experience the deepest and most positive emotions.
48 percent ranked their college football team higher than church in regard to where they experience the greatest sense of community.
59 percent ranked college football ahead of church in regard to the amount of income they spend on each.
