Maybe Michigan State as my mom's side of the family are mostly Spartan fans, Rooted for Illinois when they went to the basketball championship in 2007 but never had much more allegiance to them with growing up in the state. Moving to Houston after graduating from ISU hasn't exactly added to my list as Texas and A&M are pretty despicable. UH is similar to ISU in some ways but really more of a commuter school, not a big connection. Probably would have to say Rice for local options as it's a very good academic school and scenic campus, but pretty poor athletically besides baseball and some Olympic sports.
