I ws you tubing a bit last night and came across a replay of the UGA-TCU game and chuckled, didn't watch.  I don't recall the line, maybe it was 12?

I doubt we'll see another NC game with that large a line.

Only because a G5 team can never make the NCG.

What is the "best" NFL "mascot"?  The above guy is kind of famous, though in reality he's pretty sedentary, and prone to breathing issues.  He likes to lie on an ice bag.  Lives in Savannah, had a special vehicle to bring him to games.  When he dies, he gets buried in a vault inside the stadium with his "record" in bronze.  

Their first mascot was a goat.  Seriously.  That would be interesting today.

#2 Huskers vs #1 Seminoles in the 94 Orange bowl - Nebraska, a 17½-point underdog, earned the nation’s respect and finished No. 3 in both polls, its highest final ranking since 1983.

1994 Orange Bowl » Nebraska vs Florida State » HuskerMax game page

[color=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.87)]Nebraska’s final drive started at its 43 with about 15 seconds on the clock after Barron Miles returned the FSU kickoff 23 yards. Frazier missed tight end Trumane Bell at the sideline but hit Bell on a second try over midfield for a 29-yard gain to the FSU 28. Nebraska immediately called time out as one second remained.[/color]

[color=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.87)]Bennett waited to set up for his second field goal of the game as officials cleared the field of those who thought the game was over, but his kick was wide left.[/color]

Lots more special places, labeled:

Some people get Metallica, others have bad-ass fireworks.  

We get Garth Brooks.  

I'm the first to admit......not very intimidating.  

I didn't realize Tennessee shared our affliction.

Back in the day, Tennessee just had Rocky Top 100x a game and what weirded me out most was a pre-game prayer.  On the PA, for the whole stadium.  
I wonder if they still do that.

Did they also have an icky, patriotic flyover?
