great game, I was there
I also put $100 on the huskers - knew damned well no team could beat them by 17.5
Still best football game I've ever attended.   The stress, pressure coupled w the tropical humidity made that old OB an amazing venue.  Nothing like it.

unfortunately, I was a tad hungover - the humidity with the smell was rough

Which do you prefer? The Purdue Train Horn? Or the Northwestern Wildcat sound effect?
They both suck.

I've only seen it on TV but I think the Auburn eagle thing is pretty beat as a pregame gig.

The rock at Clemson is, to me, just OK, they run downhill, not terrible, but just OK.

The Wrmabling Wreck at Tech is not bad.

Auburn is animate about 'War Eagle' being a rally cry and NOT a mascot....but they have an actual eagle.

An actual eagle would make quick work of an actual beagle.

A bald or other eagle is an impressive boid.  Their claws area something.  I'm told they often dine on carrion or stolen prey from other boids.

What other CFB gameday traditions are pretty neat IYO?

By "tradition" I mean something more than a decade or so old, preferably around in the 50s.  Does any NFL team have a solid tradition?  I don't mean the D cheerleaders.

There is TD Jesus at ND of course, I am thinking more about something that is actually done or performed or enacted.
