So many "best moment" threads, though I'd go the other way ....
Countdown 5 to 1, Olbermann-style:
Countdown 5 to 1, Olbermann-style:
5. November 2000, the win was sealed in Lincoln, until the stupid Huskers threw for the first 3 times to their tight end, kicked a field goal to win with less than a minute to play.
4. Stupid Alamo Bowl in 2003 against Wisconsin, and I was dumb enough to go. My cousin and uncle from Dallas came with me ... as worst FG kicker we EVER had (name?) lined up like a 30-yarder to tie it with less than a minute ... I told both of them: "no way he makes it, no way in hell." I was right of course. An then on the Riverwalk that night the stupid Badger fans were all drunk louses.
3. Six months ago ... school record field goal my ass.
2. 1979, my first visit to Folsom without Dad ... stupid new coach Fairbanks loses to Drake, freaking DRAKE! We had already lost that year to LSU and I think Washington - which are respectable losses ... but then DRAKE? That was worse than Montana State I think. In fact we lost to them the next year - again at Folsom.
1. Worse by far. I was living in LA and a close friend was a huge USC fan - the worse fans there are. So we go to the Coliseum in September 2000, and it actually gets pretty pissy between us ... sure enough, SC lines up for a FG to win it - less than a minute to play - and makes it. My M-f'ing "friend" wouldn't stop running his mouth in the car home, I yelled at him and he kepot it up. I actually got OUT OF THE CAR on the street, and rode a city bus home down Wilshire. Took a year to repair that friendship.
