You also had peak College Game Day and CFB Final.

Mother fricking this. Two hours of football talk and cheerleaders. None of this sappy, human interest stories, none of this social commentary. Just football

Would head out to bars but I somehow always made it back to the recliner in time for the college football final rerun. Ate every thing out the pantry and freezer. Oreo Ice Cream

Hell yeah - the competition for that recliner seat vs your friends was epic. You were gold if you got it.

I couldn’t believe how late CF Final ran - they shot it live sometimes after 1 am

- what a treat.

It’s so bad arse

In 2001, the top-ranked Hurricanes led Florida State 21-13 at halftime. After coach Larry Coker addressed the team, safety Ed Reed took it one step further because he felt UM wasn't playing with enough emotion

The Hurricanes erupted for 28 points in the third quarter on the way to a 49-27 victory

I just rewatched the Boise/Oklahoma game yesterday. I forgot how much Boise was kicking their arse until that weird punt that took a weird bounce into a Boise blocker's leg. OU got it and immediately scored and rode that momentum to get back in it. If Boise takes possession there already up 28-10, no telling how that game changes, OU could have gotten mollywhopped.

But that ending was epic so I'm glad it unfolded the way it did.
