END OF THE WORLD, CAMPERS: WHAT GAMES ARE YOU TAKING IN YOUR BLACK HEARTS TO THE GREAT BEYOND?

According to Oprah, we think*, the world is winding to an end this Saturday, May 21. We will miss you all terribly. Intrepid reader Woody Woodrum asks, "What college football games should we re-watch Friday and Saturday to give us comfort in our hour of need?" Woody, you raise an excellent point.

We were 16 when the Vawls won the national title, and too sick to go, and watched the whole thing in our parents' living room, propped up in a recliner our Daddy graciously dragged right in front of the teevee, with a box of tissues and a bottle of saline spray our only party favors, so it might be nice to relive '98 and be awake for the whole thing, but if this is really and truly THE END, we want to go out laughing. And nothing has ever amused us more than a certain giant catfish hanging four touchdowns on Pastor McParaffinhead for his senior swan song.

Star-divide

Willie Martinez had THREE YEARS of tape on Jonathan Crompton, a notorious, unavoidable headcase guaran-damn-teed to fold like a cheap card table in the face of a must-win situation, and Lane Kiffin left Knoxville with an undefeated lifetime record against Mark Richt thanks to El Siluro Gigante's flash-in-the-pan 310 passing yards. Whatever our feelings for Kiffykins now, this will never, ever be unfunny.

Over to you, romper room: What's the last bit of gridiron action you want to see before we all depart this earth and God's green internet? Chime in below.

*We don't care to look into this too deeply, and she seems as good a harbinger as any. We take our apocalypse dates (and really, all our life cues) from the oeuvre of Roland Emmerich and thus are holding out or a 2012 global kill event.

Imma rec this one...

… because so many people overlook it. That game was as wild as Sanford ever had been prior to the Auburn blackout… and we pantsed the defending national champions on national TV.

At one point, an LSU player became so discombobulated that he downed a kickoff on the 1-yard line, thinking he was still in the endzone.

That will always be the game I think of when I hear someone shriek . . .

“but Saban’s teams are always so well coached!!! They won’t beat themselves!!!” That may be true as a general proposition, but on that one afternoon his guys had the unit cohesion of the Saddam era Iraqi navy. It was spectacular.

by MaconDawg on May 19, 2011 2:36 PM EDT up reply actions  

04 LSU and blacked out Auburn are both excellent choices, but

For my money, in the modern era (since I graduated), it’d have to be 2002 Georgia Tech. I’m pretty sure we tried to stop scoring, but Tech wouldn’t let us stop.

by NCT on May 19, 2011 2:52 PM EDT up reply actions  

Really, all these make me happy, and I'd take a whole DVD collection with me

But for me the happiest I’ve been was a week or two earlier when we finally ended the SEC East title drought with Michael Johnson’s 4th down catch at Auburn.

by Uga in DC on May 19, 2011 2:56 PM EDT up reply actions  

Great choice

It was exactly that Auburn win that made the Tech beat-down experience possible. By the time Tech came to town, we knew we were going to Atlanta for the SEC championship game for the first time ever. That by itself would have made for a great season after almost a generation of wandering in the wilderness. The pasting of the jackets was just sweet, sweet icing.

But I have to imagine it was pure joy. Picking between those games is splitting hairs. Man I miss the Davids….

I wouldn't say I was "happy" after that David Greene -> Michael Johnson play.

“Mystified and astounded that we didn’t blow it” would be more like it.

I didn’t really get happy until that Tech blowout. And when Georgia blocked the first punt in the SEC Championship Game against Arkansas for a return to the 1-yard line… well, I damn near jumped out of my seat, ran onto the field, and headbutted a player Erk-style.

See, I think that's an example of a "bad homer" call.

All the guy does is yell AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH and (basically) “We won!!”

There’s no nuance in that, and it’s exactly what every App State fan was doing at that moment. A great broadcaster needs to bring something to the call besides what you and I could do.

My only beef with this game is that I'm afraid 30 years from now people will forget

that UF took the lead and had it for most of the 1st half. UGA seized it right before half and although UF and a hobbled Teebs kept it interesting, they were never able to make up for

A) Our Secondary
B) A certain running back who I will not name in keeping with the “they are only college kids,” so don’t be a dick about it.

Anyway, the whole dance and “change the mentality” had little to do with the win, they had the better team overall and didn’t make as many bone headed plays, for a change.

by North 2 on May 19, 2011 4:17 PM EDT up reply actions  

Re: B

One of those fumbles was in no way his fault—that snap was over his head and he was a RB, not a QB. And there’s no way Urban should have given up on him that quickly. Especially not with Tebow—the only other capable runner—hurt pretty bad.

No, I lay that one largely on Urban—and UGA’s great play.

by Gator Cub on May 19, 2011 4:33 PM EDT up reply actions  

If that had been a certain player's only missteps, I could have forgotten about it.

As it was, he was just an example of a dude who is probably more athletic and coordinated than 99% of the general population, but needs to be at the 99.5% level to compete at the SEC level. He was just a tad over his head to be the pseudo-primary RB at a National Power Caliber school.

If a game can be said to have a twist ending...

…that was it. Jake Plummer converted a 4th and 2 late and everyone was thinking they would score late and win it, just like they had been doing all year. Then Plummer scored on a scramble. The Cinderella team looked like national champs.

And THEN the Bucks, coached by John Stupor, put in Joe Germaine and they go the length of the field and win? Quite a deviation from the script, I’d say.

WVU vs. South Carolina, 1969 Peach Bowl

WVU head coach Jim Carlen installs the wishbone during the run-up to the bowl game.

Profit? Yes, indeed — 365 yards rushing against the ACC champs and a 14-3 win that wasn’t as close as the score indicated. USC had all of 190 total yards on the day, and Carlen said later “If it hadn’t rained, we would have killed ‘em. South Carolina had no idea how to stop the wishbone, and they had a little quarterback (Tommy Suggs) who couldn’t get the ball over our linemen. On a dry day, we’d still be running 30 years later.”

Let's goooooooooo, Mountaineeeeeeeeers!

Tommy Suggs has been the color man on our radio broadcasts for many years. Grew up listening to him & Bob Fulton. Coach Carlen’s a good guy, too. Coached here 7 years. No huge success (of course), but got a Heisman winner out of it.

In the final analysis, it should probably be Ohio State @ Michigan 1991, but that’s more about a moment than the game (OK, two moments.) Ohio State @ Michigan 1997 is more about finishing something than the game. So if the premise is a game for the sake of a game, it has to be Michigan State @ Michigan 2004, October 30, 2004, aka Braylon-fest in 3 OT.

Seconded.

In the grand scheme of things, I’m glad Coral Gables lost that game, but the people who believe life should be adhered to in a “letter of the law” way are probably the same people who claim to have never jaywalked. With a game that is predicated on contact, a reasonable allowance must be made, and I think the defender was within such allowances. Jim Tressel knew the flag was coming out 10 seconds before it did.

I'm not sure it is

a letter of the law thing though it surely can be argued either way, it is PI after all and it is a subjective thing. It got called, I can see why it got called but I could also fully arm the counter argument. Just one of those things.

I actually didnt take it, but I asked those who did and they said it was pretty easy compared to the rest

However, Physics, from what I heard, was the toughest one of all.

It was great-

I actually got enough credit hours to be in the OSU Alumni Association, if I want to be

If memory serves, I took World History (first year it was offered, IIRC), US History, Biology, EngLit, one of the Calcs (I think BC), Physics AB, CompSci…I think that’s all. Did well enough to basically start at GT a semester ahead of schedule, allowing me to take 15-hour semesters while I pointed and laughed at everyone fighting through 18s.

That's easy for you to say

You grew up rich. I grew up so far out in the fucking sticks that only 30% of the class went on to any higher education (including two-year) and the nearest SAT/ACT prep courses were 90 minutes away by car.

That said, you can bet your sweet ass I’m loading up my kids with every demographic advantage I am able to buy. Perhaps they will even appreciate it.

daddy was a prof, and yeah, there are advantages tied to that, not monetary ones, but certainly demo ones

but EVERYBODY in my school- their parents were buying the score. I did ok on my own. There is a legitimate argument, that despite not taking any classes or having any tutors, that my score is a product of my demo. Two college educated parents, one with a terminal degree. But seriously, when the peer parental group is “no fucking way you’re not going to college” you’re going to college.

I don't get starstruck,

ever since I met Henry Rollins in the men’s room of a club where he was performing. I was still green in the business, and here I was taking a squirt right next to Henry Fucking Rollins, one of my musical idols. He looks up, sees me staring, and says, “Dude…it’s just a dick”. Moral of that story – no matter who it is, they’re all just people just like me.

There’s a Saints player that has a kid in school with mine. He was utterly shocked that people didn’t approach him more. Part of that is the NOLA attitude towards celebrities, and part is just a desire to allow them a (somewhat) normal life. They’re all just people.

I agree in heart,

he was handed a steaming pile of shit of a program from Bobby Williams, and did manage to make some improvements, especially in the off the field area. MSU was in BAD shape academically when Smith took over, and had a lot of players with legal issues as well. Those things did improve during his term, but the product on the field continued to be hot garbage.

Similar to the reason I don't hate Weis.

The program was in HORRIBLE shape when Weis came in. 2 years of 0 offensive linemen recruited. An almost complete lack of talent in the last two classes. And we had just been publicly jilted by a coach who was on record as describing Notre Dame as “my dream job”. It was a very dark time in the program’s history and we got an alumni to come back to try and fix it.

Was he an arrogant asshole? Yeah. Sure. Did his teams begin to disappoint? Definitely. But he was what we could get at the time and you cannot question the effort he put into improving the program, which is something you couldn’t say about his predecessor.

In '93 I was still in high school.

I watched college football, but I didn’t WATCH college football, if you catch my meaning. We didn’t have any overriding rooting interest growing up in my household (though I’m guessing my dad slightly preferred the State underdogs to UM’s arrogance). I went to a Notre Dame high school, so I sorta rooted for ND to win, but not enough to really follow them.

I come from an Irish football family and my dad had just gotten his MA at ND

let’s just say we watched that game. We were granted a special dispensation to stay up past our bedtime that night.

Spartans must have had 8 sacks. Too bad they took those two weeks off against Wiscy and Purdue as that team could have hung with anyone. Nasty defense.

And then Devin Barclay made the FG and all the collective breath of Columbus, OH was let out in one long “wooooooooosh”. There were some sweaty brows that day.

Easy choice, but with a caveat:

UT 41, USC 38

but only because you can’t properly recreate the atmosphere for the inaugural Big 12 Championship, when not a single soul (other than my drunken, trombone-playing friend) thought UT had the slightest chance in hell of beating Nebraska.

Gramps was a starter for DU (tackle on both o- and d-lines). Pacific had crushed them the year before.

Apparently, Pacific hadn’t had a kick of any kind blocked in 10 years or so, but Gramps managed to knock a punt down on the line and ran it in from about 30 yards or so for a VINTAGE FAT GUY TOUCHDOWN.

’95 PSU-UO Rose Bowl for childhood memory sake
’08 PSU-UM was cathartic as fuck
’08 PSU-OSU, though to be honest that game was NOT fun to watch. If I could condense it to Pryor fumbling and Lydell Sargeant picking the ball off in the end zone, that would suit me just fine.

In terms of other teams, it’s really really tough to argue against the ’07 BSU-OU Fiesta Bowl.

Eh...

The Rose Bowl “tradition” was invented because the Big Nine(see how silly calling it the Big Ten is?) didn’t go to bowl games between the 1920s and the end of WW2. Under the guise of outrage at the idea of player stipends by the southern universities being a disgrace to the clearly amateur status deserved by college athletics(see shit’s been going on forever) they got together to make lots of money.

Then the PCC disbanded less than a decade later because half the conference was paying players and they got busted. As punishment they were forced to kick out Idaho and were given a new Rose Bowl contract.

There is only one real choice

The ’97 Sugar Bowl. In one fell swoop we won our first MNC, extracted revenge over FSU for their playing to the echo of the whistle in the season, sent Wuerffel out on one hell of a high note, and managed to regain some dignity from the MNC game the year before.

I'll be watching a whole lot of number 33.

My games are basically just going to be replay after replay of Ron Dayne rumbling over anyone standing in his way. For example, hanging 246 and 4 TDs on heavily favored UCLA in the 1999 Rose Bowl. 50, yes 50 Carries, 297 yards as a freshman against Minnesota. 4 Unanswered second half TDs against OSU in the ’Shoe in ’99. I will never tire of footage of 33 just rumbling over any linebacker or safety with the temerity to try and tackle him above the knees.

3-Michigan State over UM in 2001. Don’t care if there was holding or not. I lost my mind.
4-UVA over UGA in the 1995 Peach Bowl. Kickoff return to win. The ridiculous celebration penalty to set up the return doesn’t bother me in the slightest.

The LGA-DCA route just inherently sucks, particularly around 5:00 PM in the spring/summer, when you are always at risk for thunderstorms. I probably should have gone with the Acela today, but the option to wake up in the DC ’burbs this morning and still be in my office in New York by 0800 was too good to pass up.

It's not that hard to do a day trip to NYC

. . . if you are willing to suck it up on sleep.

Get up at 0420, eat, shower, and drive to National (I’m old; politics aside, the damn airport is not “Reagan”). Walk onto the 0600 shuttle — first flight of the day and almost never late. Land at LGA around 0700 after a nap on the plane and get a cab into town before traffic on the LIE backs up. Have the cab drop you at the Starbucks across the street from the office. Purchase ALL. THE. CAFFEINE. Get to office around 0745.

Going home, you try to wrap up all calls, meetings, etc. by 1515 (citing early morning, etc) and catch a cab before 1530. This is critical because NYC cabbies go off shift at 1600; you want to find one who lives in Queens and is looking for an airport fare as his last trip of the day. Assuming you do that, you get to LGA in time to make the 1630 shuttle. From there, you’re at the mercy of Delta, the FAA, and Crazy Old Testament God.

Sure, it ginormous, and if you have a tight connection between terminals you might be in trouble, but it is laid out so simply that just about anyone with a 1/4 of a brain can get from one terminal to another without getting lost. O’Hare on the other hand….

The thang was,

Lots of games have a big call late that is debatable and the losing side is going to gripe on (Miami-tOSU, Jaburglar Catch vs. Tennessee, Clipping call against ND, etc.), but this game had debatable call after debatable call all going one direction. Heck, look at the clip on the kickoff play, it seems like he makes contact between frames, but at worse a player MIGHT be an inch off sides. Your Fason fumble link was fail, but If I remember the play, F$U returned for a TD. I remember that play as being the most forgivable from the “bad call” standpoint because he was in a pile and it was tough to see, but I’d still say objectively, his knee scraped ground before losing control. If we’re playing the game where a kickoff guy gets flagged for being MAYBE an inch offsides, then Fason is down for maybe grazing the grass. There was another play where F$U clearly got away with a fumble on a kickoff UF recovered and I believe some other play I can’t even remember at this point which was also a fairly obvious blown call. And the secret reason Gators hate this game is that, despite it all, we still had it won until the last minute. It’s all good, blood makes the grass grow. Plus, this game probably influenced events to help oust [Name Redacted] sooner than he might have otherwise, so it wasn’t a total bust.

by North 2 on May 19, 2011 7:11 PM EDT up reply actions  

Well, objectively,

Fason did fumble.

I’ll admit the ACC refs blew some calls-they do officiate for the ACC, after all. But it wasn’t EVERY FREAKIN’ PLAY like the Gator fans claim, either. FSU had a couple of fumbles when they fell right back on their own fumble in front of the ref and it was blown dead immediately. UF even got a couple of calls, too. Leak should’ve been called for fumbling on a slide, for instance, but he wasn’t. It was just ACC refs being ACC refs.

PS: This catch

was ruled out of bounds by SEC refs to give UF the win over FSU.
We’re even now.

We're

never going to see eye-to-eye. Now that I see it again, I remember my thoughts on the Fason fumble. Clearly, the ball got punched out early, but he seemed to regain control up on his shoulder before hitting the ground and losing the ball for good. Just because someone isn’t holding the ball in the traditional manner, doesn’t mean he doesn’t have control (Helmet catch anyone?). Look at around the 6 second mark, he takes his left hand to try and better secure the ball which he is already controlling by pinning it to his right shoulder with his right hand. Only after he was clearly on the ground does it come out for good, although you don’t see it as Boulware is in the way. Anyway, water under the bridge. I don’t remember the Leak play (not being biased, really don’t remember) and I would give you the benefit of the doubt, but we clearly disagree about the Fason call, so I’d have to see before I sign off. I do remember the Leak Auburn fumble in 2006 that probably, technically, could have been called an incomplete pass, but I actually think he deserved the fumble on principle, so I don’t grumble about that play

And your bringing up the bum call against FSU way back when is just more proof of my original post that many games have a deciding call at the end. That one isn’t even debatable, but 2003 was big play after big play, at least two (maybe 3) gave or took away a TD. The 2003 game is unique for the sheer number of big calls that went one way.
