So here’s what’s going to happen over the next 10 days

We’re going to be so sick of Mendoza by the time the game gets here.
I get it. He’s a feel good story. He seems like a really good kid, bright, great player, family oriented… he checks all the boxes.

Aren't we all close to our family? Do the right thing? Work hard?

Not directed at you but the notion that a paid college football player is somehow better than us normal folk because he simply does what most people do makes me wanna vomit

The media puts these types of guys on an unneccessary pedestal

On the morning of January 1, 1984 - the Nebraska Cornhuskers were considered one of the greatest college football teams of all time. They were unbeatable.

They were playing that night for the National Championship against the vastly outmatched Miami Hurricanes at the home field of the Hurricanes.

Fast forward 46 years later…

Oklahoma was also favored against the Canes in January 1988.
We know how that turned out in Miami.

Mendoza is getting the Tebow media treatment

Has anyone mentioned the Heisman curse yet or are they just crowning him?

That team is too well coached mentally to give us bulletin board material.

Somebody start the deepfakes.

 

[BALLHAWKU]

Hope it ****es our team off

Geee

We're going to be the underdog, at home, in the National Championship?

Hmm I wonder if I've seen this before?**










**I wasn't born alive 1983

Has anyone mentioned the Heisman curse yet or are they just crowning him?

I thought about that. Good call
