Got to admit that is pretty wild.

Ed Orgeron has (arguably) the most perfect season as a HFC in CFB history.
Reminds one of Lt Dan's speech to Forrest:
"They gave you the Congressional Medal of Honor, they gave you, an imbecile, a moron who goes on television and makes a fool out of himself in front of the whole damn country, the Congressional Medal of Honor."

Uh, it could be any infinite number of sizes and would still cast a shadow.

SNL completely dropped the ball by not reviving this character for the eclipse.

I doubt it is perfect
it's just "close enough" and that's all it takes to have an eclipse.

Well, judging by experiment, I'd say about 100%.

yeah, that's kinda what makes it special imo. It is exactly the same size or basically so close it looks like it is, not some random size that blocks a smaller or way bigger area than the sun, etc.

They'll just tell you the sun and moon are round, not earth.

Are you related to those 2 “scholar athletes” up for this years NFL draft that one does NOT believe birds are real and the other doesn’t believe in the moon landing?
What I don’t believe is that those 2 are functioning adults. Need proof.

yep. just the odds of all your ancestors surviving to reproduce to create you and you being the sperm to fertilize the egg are crazy astronomical.
