That 98-yarder is the shortest TD ever in a college football playoff first round game.

- Jack Gohlke spent 5 years at Division II Hillsdale College. He's now a 24-yr-old grad transfer at Oakland University. He has the hairline of a man twice his age. And he's currently torching the University of Kentucky on national TV. This is the greatest sporting event on Earth.
- So let me get this straight: Georgia loses to ND. Texas needs an iffy call to edge ASU. Tennessee gets blasted at Ohio St. Alabama loses to 7-5 Michigan. South Carolina loses to Illinois. And we’re supposed to believe the SEC is college football’s best conference?
- This is the political discourse we need in America.
- 3 years ago, Bo Pelini held a players meeting at a Lincoln high school & scorched the place that employed him. Mike Riley just held a press conference 5 hours after he got fired and said, "I'm just sorry I didn't do better." As Tom Osborne once said, there's "more than winning."
- Ray Lewis just told Johnny Manziel, 22, to grow up and stop acting like you're in college. At 25, Ray Lewis was indicted for murder.
- Ready for a wild stat? Bo Pelini's record at Nebraska (2008-14): 66-27 Paul Chryst's record at Wisconsin (2015-22): 67-26
- You're not supposed to get worse during the season. Nebraska is indisputably and inexplicably worse than two months ago. Much, much worse.
- No joke: Fred Hoiberg has more road wins in the last 50 hours than he had in his first 35 months at Nebraska.
- Haven’t heard Creighton fans this quiet since the 4th quarter against Georgia Southern. Absolute stunner.
- Everything about this game feels big…except the broadcast team.
- Let's be clear: The state of Nebraska (fan base, university, local media, etc.) has been veeeeery forgiving of Scott Frost's failures. 90% of Power Five programs would've mocked him. Nebraska basically just tried to forget and move on. And yet he acts like HE is the victim? Damn.
- Give this man a Pulitzer….after you find out how he got a sideline credential. (The extensive profanity is warranted, but still NSFW) x.com/HawksChronicle…
- Husker fans, I'm going to regret saying this, but calm the hell down. This ain't 2021. Illinois was better. You still got a Dude at quarterback. That's the hardest thing. Hug your dog and go beat Purdue.
