REMEMBERING SOME CFB GAMES: 2024 EDITION

#CFBSky, I have here a list of some ranked vs. ranked games from the 2024 CFB season.

If you see a game you remember and/or attended as a fan, media, marching band, former player, etc., quote skeet that game with your memories of it.

Let's go. 🧵

I would advise Iowa fans to keep close tabs on that Vandy/Tennessee game.
Assuming Oregon wins and secures a CFP slot, you're looking at 3 B1G teams in the CFP.

Have to think the Citrus takes Michigan, especially if it can get Michigan vs. Texas.

I'll be surprised if it isn't ReliaQuest for Iowa.

Silly me for thinking Pitt would beat Miami outright.

Yeah, I don't think Michigan is coming back from that one.

nick saban looks like the father in a hallmark movie who just told the family the banks about to foreclose on their family farm unless they can sell 7000 bottles of apricot jam
I’ve been trying to figure out what kind of look Saban is going for here and I’ve settled on “hill country revenue agent”

Herbstreit says this while sitting next to a guy who literally told Lane Kiffin to kick rocks before a national title game because he took a G5 head coaching gig.
Kirk Herbstreit implores Ole Miss administrators to allow Lane Kiffin to coach the Rebels — if he leaves for LSU — and let him finish what he and his players started.

thinking about how Louisiana's governor pretended to take a principled stand against the rise of massive coaching contracts with crippling buyouts, only for the school to turn around and offer Lane Kiffin a 7-year, $100 million contract
Lane Kiffin is expected to announce his coaching decision at some point today.

And LSU sources are “very confident” that Kiffin is going to accept the Tigers’ offer to take over, per @brucefeldmancfb.bsky.social.

Said this 2 weeks ago and remains true with regard to Texas.

Gonna laugh if Lane Kiffin says tomorrow he's leaving and then Auburn beats Alabama to send Ole Miss to the SEC title game next week.
November 29, 2025 at 4:19 AM
I can't imagine anyone associated with Ole Miss being on board with that idea if he leaves.
ABC/ESPN's Booger McFarland thinks Ole Miss should allow Lane Kiffin to continue coaching the team in the CFP even if he decides to leave for LSU.

"If Lane decides to leave, he should be allowed to finish what he started."

The full version is even better because he knew damn well what The Wiener's Circle put out there. 😄

Is this scenario far fetched?

- Bears and Packers split
- Packers lose one other game (likely at Denver)
- Bears beat Cleveland at home
- Bears split the last two against the 49ers and Lions

Asking because the Bears would now win the NFC North if this plays out exact.

The Bears have clinched a winning season for the second time since 2013.

Exactly one year ago today, the Bears were a clownshow in Detroit.

Today, they go into Philly and beat the defending champs by two scores.
