I was born in 85 and didn’t get to experience the 80s and early 90s like some of you guys!

Now that I’m on the mend with the liver I’d like to really go back and deep dive watch it. Should I start at a certain period and go linear?

Really start with the Schennly championship team? I want to watch all of the games I can.

Who are the players that I should watch for that are not household names that weee foundations to those programs?

If you could go back to 1980, that would be a great starting point.

HOWEVER, the Supreme Court case of NCAA v. Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma was not decided until 1984, so you will probably have access to a lot more games (ESPN or wherever) from 1985 onward.

I enrolled in 1986, and I'm pretty sure that all of our biggest games had national broadcasts, either on a broadcast network or on ESPN. Florida, Oklahoma, and FSU, definitely (plus the Fiasco Bowl against Pedo State) are definitely games that get replayed a lot.
