Hello friends and welcome back to a wonderful meltdown week! This week I especially enjoyed watching a few fan bases with fans who’ve been quite rude melt down in real time which makes the melting extra special.
A quick housekeeping note: I’m sorry there was no all-Bama meltdown last week. I’m starting a new job and we got our signals crossed so just wanted to apologize for depriving y’all of that content. I’m sure the people in my section at the stadium alone could’ve filled an epic melt.
Now with the season so late on every loss hurts that much more. It’s why we all get thankful for college football around turkey day. We say thanks for epic battles resulting in livid and despondent fanbases. Without further ado let’s get to the butthurt.
Undefeated Baylor hosted Oklahoma for College Gameday’s key matchup. After rolling out to a tenuous 28-3 lead the Bears would go scoreless in the second half and end up losing 34-31. Chip and Joanna didn’t deserve this.
Texas went up to Ames with aspirations of still making the Big 12 championship. Despite looking abysmal offensively for the first three quarters the Longhorns were able to mount a comeback and score 14 points in the final quarter. It wasn’t enough as Texas lost on a last second field goal: 23-21.
Minnesota and P.J. Fleck rowed their undefeated boats into Iowa as a top 10 team in a night game at Iowa. Those almost never go well for the undefeateds and this one was no different. The fighting boat-rowers lost 23-19.
Auburn took on Georgia in a game filled with two destructive defenses and two absolutely unwatchable offenses. Towards the end of the first half a Georgia running back tried to avoid contact with a photographer and ended up kneeing her in the head and knocking her unconscious for several minutes. I’m glad to say that Georgia student photographer Chaimberlain Smith is home with her family making a full recovery. The Tigers offense put up a previously unimaginable 14 points in the fourth quarter and still managed to lose 21-14.
Bad words follow from people who don’t care about disappointing the bad word haters. If you are a bad word hater please consider not scrolling down if you don’t want to be disappointed.
BAD SECOND HALF BEARS

Still think the “holding” call on the tipped fourth-down play in the 2Q was BS, though.
BAYLOR BLEW A 28-3 LEAD
Don’t let Baylor beating Oklahoma 28-3 distract you from the fact that Baylor blew a 28-3 lead to Oklahoma

There was never a doubt...y’all know how Hurts plays when Tua goes down.
Let this be a lesson. Never. Ever. Go up 28-3.
As a Falcons fan and a Baylor fan I want the numbers 28 and 3 eliminated from the known universe
Hi, I’m first half Baylor and I have DirectTV
Hi, I’m second half Baylor and I eat my own shit
apology for poor handegg
when were you when undefeated baylor die?
i was at home drinking motor fluid
’28-3’
no
Hard to believe the largest comeback win in Oklahoma’s history was only 25 points.
Atlanta: * blows a 28-3 lead *
Michigan State: “hold my beer”
Baylor: “hold my bear”
Almost throws pick
Throws pick
Nice.
Baylor’s 2nd half game looks like a...
puts on sunglasses
“Real fixer upper”
*through tears* YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Don’t let the fact that Baylor blew a 28-3 to OU lead distract you from the fact that Atlanta blew a 28-3 lead to New England distract you from the fact that Kansas beat Texas... In football! distract you from the fact that the Cleveland Indians blew a 3-1 lead to the Chicago Cubs distract you from the fact that the Golden State Warriors blew a 3-1 lead to the Cleveland Cavs distract you from the fact that the Oklahoma City Thunder blew a 3-1 lead to the Golden State Warriors distract you from the fact that the Seattle Seahawks didn’t give the ball to Marshawn distract you from the fact that Dez caught it #XGonnaGiveItToYa :(
Some people want to talk about Baylor blowing a 28-3 lead but I want to know will the Good Doctor get laid?
https://i.imgur.com/I0ITgPt.png
WHEN I SAID I WAS FINE LOSING TO OU THIS WAS NOT WHAT I MEANT
There are so many ways we could have lost that game and I can’t think of a single one that would hurt more than this one
They had us in the second half I’m not gonna lie
We have a quality loss now, so do we move up in the rankings?
Damn, the playoff committee is going to put us 1 spot down for scheduling a cupcake again.
Edit: I done fucked up
My frozen pizza just broke in half as I took it out of the freezer. My night is ruined.
Good thing no one blows 28-3 leads
Why do I like this dumb sport

Rhule looking like he accepted that loss an hour ago and has been over it for a while
SHORTHORNS
Good morning. As the hangover sets in, just remember this is all part of the LHN curse.

Unrank Texas
Tuck Fexas.
Fucking throw our special teams coordinator into the sun. Absolutely inexcusable. like we played pretty fucking bad the whole game, but literally the ONE thing you can’t do there is give a free first down. Let then kick the field goal and your offense still has 2 minutes to take the lead back. That’s the kind of shit that should get an assistant fired. No excuse. I’m livid.
TIM BECK IS DOODY FACE
How does this man keep getting jobs!?
Aggie v Longhorn bowl game. Who says no?
Texas had more punting yards than offensive yards.
Is this what getting Dickered feels like?
Broke: Dickered
Woke: Ass Allied
If only Herman took the FG in the first half...
THE CORN DEMANDED A SACRIFICE OF RANKED TEAMS
Was really looking forward to making a super witty REFS CHEAT FOR TEXAS comment, but after that loss I don’t have the heart.
Fuck this team
If we can’t hire Urban then:
QB - promote Fedora to QB coach and play caller
RB - fire Drayton/hire Samples
WR - move Beck here and give Co-coordinator title
TE - promote Beaty
OL - keep Hand here
DL - keep Giles, but only responsible for DE’s. Go get Bo Davis back to coach DT’s.
LB/DC - hire Muschamp
DB’s - Fire Naivar and Washington and hire Akina.
Watch, now Texas will mess around and beat* Baylor, just to “Texas” up the Big XII…
That offsides on the first FG is a fireable offense for someone on the Texas coaching staff, absolutely no discipline...
Add that on top of the 3 and out on Texas’s last offensive possession and wow... absolutely terrible.
Schlonged by Assalley
Fire whoever is supposedly coaching special teams.
And Orlando.

Death, Taxes, Iowa beating a ranked team at home
Minny fans yesterday were saying it’s upsetting that the Iowa fans on here keep giving them respect (because we are supposed to hate each other). So, Minnesota fans, I am respectfully telling you all to eat a bag of shit!
People who though Minnesota might let people down against Penn State don’t understand Minnesota sports.
Beating Penn State and then still managing to lose the B1G West to Wisconsin would be more our style.
FUCK EVERY SINGLE NEGATIVE ASS MINNESOTA FLAIR IN HERE. THIS IS OUR BEST SEASON IN FUCKING 5 DECADES AND YOU’RE SITTING HERE BITCHING THAT WE LOST @IOWA? WHAT OTHER COACH EVEN PUTS US IN THIS SITUATION?
Yeah super poorly called game, yeah lots of issues, but we lost by 4 @IOWA against a ranked team and you’re calling for the coaches head, are you all fucking high?
Iowa hates Cinderella Stories
Kinnick at night. A tale as old as time.
WE HAVE A QUALITY LOSS NOW
Sorry Minnesota, it was the perfect recipe:
being ranked
playing at Kinnick
in the dark
Kinnick, where dreams get punted to death.
CFP Committee - “I’m about to end this whole teams career”
Everyone knows birds are the natural predator of boats.
That was the most poorly managed game I have ever watched
If someone is 9-0 in Kinnick Stadium, you want to be the home team
Sad gopher noises
Axe game is going to be a fucking bar room brawl and I can’t wait to want to die all over again
Broken oars, broken dreams
I fucking knew it would be this game and the pig meant more to me than literally anything this season.
Losing @ Iowa just means you’re an even more legitimate top team in the Big Ten now.
RIP Minnesota/Baylor championship game dreams :(
Minnesota hurt itself in confusion.
The Illini remain a contender for the Big Ten West.
This one hurts. It hurts big.
Kinnick in November is to undefeated teams as the Eastern front is to Germans
Jokes on you Minnesota sports can’t get me hopeful anymore
AU, NAU BURN
Not tonight Auburn!!! ⚫️ #GoDawgs #SEC pic.twitter.com/6flTdV6HKW

Rough day for both Auburn and Alabama but look on the bright side - maybe CBS will pass on broadcasting the Iron Bowl this year!
CBS handled that injured photographer about as poor as you could have. Fucking inexcusable
I am in an abusive relationship with Auburn Football.
CAN I GET, UHHH, A FUCKING OFFENSE NEXT SEASON?
Now Auburn can continue our sacred tradition of being the highest ranked 3 loss team
That stadium atmosphere was insane during the 4th quarter wish we could’ve pulled it out. Which is also what I said to my wife when she got pregnant.
Fuck you CBS - that game was 4 hours. I’ll give you the 15 or so minutes for the photographer injury, but 3:45 is still WAY too long for a football game.
Fuck Gary Danielson
Don’t let the final score distract you from the fact that Gary Danielson was laughing at a girl that was knocked out because of a damn head injury. Fuck Gary Danielson.
Our defense does not deserve this offense.
What an awful last possession
The inner machinations of Bo’s mind are an enigma.
I like driving my truck,
Gary Danielson sucks.
CBS needs to remove Gary Danielson. Now. His commentary and jokes about the poor girl that got injured on the sideline were appalling.
Add to that, a few weeks back in the Auburn/LSU game, he called LSU Grant Delpit’s injury “interesting” in regards to the matchup against Alabama. While Delpit is still on the ground injured.
Gary lacks empathy for others and doesn’t deserve to be on TV anymore.
Auburn might be the most confusing team I’ve ever seen
“They call this the oldest rivalry for a reason”
Thanks Harvard
Gus: Goes 4-15 against LSU, GA and Bama over the past 5 seasons.
Every other fanbase: But why do you want to fire Gus?
Bo Nix needs witness protection
Only bo nix would take a sack on a pivotal 4th down
