I thought I would share, since many of you need a sport's fix. The video below is long, but is a detailed narrative on the craziest CFB season of all time.

Wish we would have another season like that again. Seemed like there was a huge upset every weekend. Wasn’t there a stretch where the #2 team lost like 6 weeks in a row?

A playoff that season would have been very interesting. I feel like USC and Georgia were playing the best football of any team toward the end of the year.

There was an SBNation video on the 2007 college football season as well I watched somewhat recently.

They declared it the greatest regular season of any sport ever and it's hard to disagree.

People use the cliche "anything can happen" all the time but truth be told, things usually go as expected.

2007 was the year that legitimately anything could happen any week.

Got all excited that we beat #1 LSU and then I think multiple #1s went down in consecutive weeks after that. Thunder stealing frickers.

1990 and 2007 were the craziest football seasons I can remember.

It's too bad that season has faded from memory because it was highly entertaining and unpredictable as well. I mean, shite, Virginia was the #1 team in America for two weeks that season. Colorado and Georgia Tech ended up splitting the national championship. Wild.

It's crazy to me that 07 and 08 USC got derailed by Stanford and Oregon State.

07 was such a tossup, it's hard to know what would have happened. In 08, SC beat down everyone, except for the road loss to OSU.

I was happy LSU made it in 2007. Ohio State was so overrated, it was so nice to see a good team expose them.

I remember sports shows on 01/01/1991 showing as many as 5 teams with a possible shot of at least a share of the title entering that day depending on ties and who blew out their opponent.

No Big12 title game and Missouri is playing ? for National Title

Only losses were to OU that season, then they went deep into Arkansas colon in cotton bowl.

It was also Tennessee's last relevant season ever.

I still think a healthy LSU and USC were the two best teams. UGA was good too. We were robbed of UGA/USC rose bowl that year.

Don’t know if I was ever as disappointed after a loss as I was after Arky 07. Get the #1 ranking back, last home game, clear path to the NCG and we shite the bed.
