@DNReacts @DNReacts what you said at 2:35 has its caveats but is correct in American collegiate football there are 3 ways a call can be adjudicated ( auburn / central Florida ) 1. call on the field confirmed : you don’t need to go to replay 2. Call on the field overturned : you need replay to make sure you have all views which could overrule the play on the field ( usually done during the last 2:00 of a game ) 3. Call on the field STANDS : the referee goes to the replay booth and cannot find any evidence to overturn the call that was made on the field of play Note : if either the 2nd or 3rd situation is broached a red flag in the left pocket of the coach can be thrown on the field ( where there is a possibility of losing a timeout IF the call is overturning ) or can be instated by the replay booth ( which means you keep the timeout )
You guys have picked up football incredibly fast. It’s a very very complicated sport and you guys have got like 80% of everything down including terminology. Very impressive
The irony of mixing up Brigham Young and Baylor is that they are now in the same conference, and are both private religious Universities. They happen to be different sects though (along with TCU) so the Big 12 is gonna be a bit interesting from that perspective from now on.
I've been a kstate fan my whole life and thought i knew the Big 12 well, but i had no idea Baylor was a private christian university, cant believe i didnt know that but sure am glad i know now!
fav byu player is taysom hill. best utility player in history. hopefully he can get some field-time under carr this year. donno why i commented this, but i was just thinkin, it could be a big year for him.
The 2006 Rose Bowl was Keith Jackson's last game. I hear his voice on the call. He has the most iconic broadcaster voice from my childhood. You should look up a video of his greatest calls.
In the middle of the NHL playoffs, NBA playoffs and the NFL draft, you guys drop this reaction, now I’m totally missing and dreaming college football. Thanks guys 😂😂😂.
The Tyreek Hill punt return TD also has one of my all time favorite calls when the announcer shouts “This. Is. Bedlam!” (For context, the rivalry between Oklahoma and Oklahoma state is nicknamed Bedlam - one of my favorite rivalry game names).
Bedlam or, as it is known to most Sooners, "The Most Lopsided Rivalry In Sports". OU leads the football series 91-19-7 as of this post. But the Pokes have given us one HELL of a hard time the last 20 years or so. BOOMER!!!
@@seanmonetathchi1060 According to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedlam_Series the term applies to multiple sports w/in the rivalry. Basketball is relatively evenly matched while OSU dominates in wrestling.
For context, the Tyreek Hill punt return happened after a running into the punter penalty on OSU was accepted even though the ball had been downed inside the 10 yard line.
The LSU-Texas A&M game was a big chunk of the reason the overtime rules have been changed - the game went on for well over an hour after the end of regulation. At the time, the rules were: each team gets a possession from the 25 yard line; if scores are still equal, do it again; starting with the 3rd, you can't kick the extra point after a touchdown (have to go for 2). Shortly after this game, they added that starting with the 5th OT, each team gets one play to attempt a 2-point conversion instead of possession at the 25. Now it's no kicked extra point in the 2nd OT, 2-point conversion attempt only (no possession from the 25) in the 3rd and beyond. Illinois and Penn State have played a 9OT game under the new rules, but in terms of real time that game was almost 45 minutes shorter than LSU-Texas A&M because of the rule change.
I don't like the change. No strategy in regards of going for the touchdown when 4th down or safely kicking the field goal. They should have moved back the starting field to either 35 or 45, so easy field goals would need to be earned.
You guys should never apologize after pausing,after all the whole reason we watch is to see your reaction, when you pause you ask necessary questions for us to answer or give your opinions on what just happened which is why we watch
Having possession of the ball is either having a foot down on the ground and not bobbling it, when it is in your hand, and you have to get three steps down to be ruled a fumble
BYU (Brigham Young University) is a Mormon school in Utah. The yearly game between them and the public secular school (Utah) is known as "The Holy War" and is one of the most intense "in-state" rivalry in college football.
Very good job boys. You didn't miss much in this video. BYU is Brigham Young Univ in Provo Utah vs the Univ of Utah in Salt Lake City. This was a game between instate rivals. Baylor Univ is in Waco Texas 2000 Km, away from Provo.
Hey love the content! You guys should check out NFL miracles and maybe even some Miami Dolphins highlights from the previous season. Tua Tagovailoa and Jaylen Waddle from the 2019 Bama vs LSU game are both on the phins(Alabama qb and receiver)! Insane game from Baltimore Ravens vs Miami Dolphins Week 2 highlights is a must see top 3 game from last season! Both teams had record breaking stats in different categories in that one game!
. For context on the UCF VS Auburn clip. That year UCF who is normally a mediocre program that goes like 6-6 went 12-0 and were ranked 12 the playoff committee said they played no one that was good and so they refused to give them better rankings and stiffed them a top 4 ranking and the chance to play for the national championship. They gave them a BCS bowl bid against #7 Auburn in the peach bowl who were 10-3 but had victories over Alabama and Georgia when both teams were ranked number 1, Georgia and Bama played each other in the national championship. Auburn entered the game 10 point favorites to win and UCF came in and played lights out and won. Their fans claimed national champions after being the only undefeated team. The NCAA actually now recognizes both Alabama and UCF as the 2018 NCAA National Champions. It was an absolute Cinderella story for their team and one that was so glad I got to see. They went on to win 26 straight games before losing. Thank you for reminding me about this.
If you are watching Miracle college football plays you should find a video from the 1982 Cal/Stanford game. The final play of that game is simply called "The Play." It's the most memorable ending in a college football game of all-time (apologies if you saw it in a previous college football video).
13:50 Your initial reaction of "how?" is correct as usually it would be an interception. However, every once in a while, especially on very long and high passes the defenders will misjudge either the length of the throw and/or the timing of their jump and the ball will sail over them all to a waiting receiver. Its very rare, but definitely something that happens. Outside of any kind of windy conditions my experience is not only is it inherently hard to track a football from 50-70 yards away on a huge arc, but this length/trajectory is unusual enough where the regular timing of the defensive backs is disrupted. They're very often accelerating rapidly to close the distance on receivers with lower trajectory and quicker arriving passes, in these cases the natural inclination to move towards the ball may inadvertently "suck them in" leading towards an overshoot. We grew up playing a game called "3 flys/flies up" where it was basically a recreation of this scenario and a QB would launch these types of passes and a group of us would fight for catches and a chance to rotate to QB. Not only did it teach you how to judge the flight of this type of throw, but it also reinforced how to time your jump and attack the ball at the highest point. Alternatively, what often happened was the ball would be tipped and the catch was made by those prepared and actively looking for rebounds and caroms. All in all it's a deceptively difficult situation for the defender, even if they're just sitting back there waiting on the ball to come down. The last wildcard is traditionally most cornerbacks are shorter than their receiver counterparts, so they'll have even more inclination/incentive to be aggressive to offset their height imbalance. if you ever see a tall receiver or tight end with a strong basketball background, they're especially dangerous situations as their body positioning, timing, and fighting instincts for securing basketball rebounds translates perfectly here....either to compete for the original catch, or securing deflections with quick and "sticky" hands. Enjoy the videos fellas, have a great weekend!!
Excellent description of the complex dynamics of this situation. Also, add the increased difficulty of tracking the ball at night, under artificial lighting (you lose sight of the ball in the lights), with the added caution by defenders to avoid a pass interference penalty, makes this situation far more challenging than it appears.
Love your reactions and watching you grow into the College and Pro game! You may get better context on these compilation games by pausing at the beginning of each play just to get bearings and get context by looking at the scoreboard on the screen. So much info. Time left, who's losing, what down, rank and record of each team. (great for gauging the magnitude of the fans especially when its a big upset). Keep it up!
11:15 I don't know if any other videos you've seen explain this, but college football has really weird overtime. Each team gets a chance on offense, with the ball starting 25 yards away from a touchdown - so they're already in field goal range - and if they're still tied after that, they try again. Now, the rules at the time were that, starting with the 3rd OT, if a team scored a touchdown with their possession, they had to go for a 2-point conversion afterward - no extra point kicks. Now they make teams go for 2 after a touchdown in the 2nd OT, and if they're still tied, every overtime after that is just a single play for each team: One team lines up for a 2-point attempt, then the other team does, and it goes back and forth until there's a winner. The reason I say that's weird is because what makes a team good in overtime is different from what makes a team good during the entire rest of the game. It's deciding wins and losses based on a very very very small part of a whole football game. It's a bit like how knockout soccer tournaments have penalty kicks at the end - except soccer is so low scoring that, without PK's to break the tie, the game could go on forever. As you've seen, college football games have no problem putting points on the board. Sorry for the length of this post, but it's definitely one irritation I have with college football. If two teams are that closely matched that even 1 or 2 overtimes can't separate them, then what's wrong with calling the game a tie and letting these full time college students get a little extra sleep? If the NFL is okay with a tie for their professional athletes, that should be good enough for college kids.
Just some info for reviews in college football- when an initial call is made, if there is something that needs to be reviewed, they will be contacted by the conference. The review needs to happen before the next play. After the review, the refs will say if a call was “confirmed”, “stands”, or is “overturned”. To overturn a call, “indisputable video evidence” is needed. “Confirmed” means that the initial ref call was confirmed. “Stands” means that for whatever reason, there’s not evidence on either way with the initial call, so the original call stands. “Overturned” means that the initial call was overturned. Because of this, this typically means that most reviews are not overturned.
The first clip, the reason why that was a close review is that the in Stadium clocks, and the offical clock also count in milliseconds. The on field clocks read 0.01 when LSU got the snap off, it was reviewed because the official clock had a different reading. On review the offical clock read 0.00 prior to the snap rendering the play dead. And Auburn gets the upset.
That LSU vs Texas A&M 74-72 game was absolutley insane, I remember watching it live and not believing what I was seeing. Definitely worth going back and watching the highlights for that one
As an Iowa fan, when you made the comment “that’s an especially low score,” I almost choked on my food. If you watch a lot of Iowa football, you will be shocked to see how many games they win with scores like that one. No other team in America has a better defense and special teams, while simultaneously having a worse offense 😂
I've mentioned it before, one of big dufferences between NCAA and NFL are the "hash marks" down the center of the field (pitch). In the NFL they are in-line with the goalposts (uprights). But in college they are much further apart. This results is much steeper angles when kicking field goals up close. You will see missed kicks more often in college games. Again, to explain, if the previous play ends out-of-bounds or between the hash-mark and the out-of-bounds (sidelines) the ball is placed at the nearest hash-mark. If a play ends anywhere between the hash-marks the ball is placed there for the next play.
It's awesome seeing Brits embrace our giant American sport of Football. Once you understand the game it is very exciting. BTW, BYU is Brigham Young University, a Mormon University also in Utah. So, big in-state rivalry in Utah with BYU in Provo, UT and Utah U in Salt Lake City, UT
You guys are getting to be old hands at this American football stuff. Remembering the dates and the bowl games is crazy good, especially being pretty new to the sport. Great job.
Hi Damo and Nick, you guys have made great progress in such a short time. You guys are really grasping everything and I didn't see any misunderstanding in your reviews of the plays. I am sure everyone has mentioned that BYU is Bring Young University in Utah. That was a big rivalry game between them and Utah, I think the campuses are only a few miles from each other. Keep up the great reviews, hope when you go to the batting cages you can film it, I would bet that you will both hit the 30 mph pitches, the basic of batting review a few days ago was a good one too.
Your memory was amazing. Do you cram for these the night before? I could understand you remembering the specific play. But, when you came up with the year and bowl name, I was truly impressed.
You blokes are swift learners! Throwing out the one foot in bounds college rule like it was nothing. Also, I wish I could understand Cricket as well as you guys now know American football.
You called it. The Texas-USC game was the 2006 Rose Bowl! Also, in the LSU vs Texas A&M game, I completely agree that quarterback's knee being down was pure luck because he had no reason to down it in that situation. It was lucky but completely saved the game for them.

Hope you guys saw the NFL draft last night, kinda crazy lol, but was awesome, just like your content guys, as always, thanks, and keep up the good work
Thanks Bradley, Nick caught the Draft, I had a work engagement but I’ve just caught up on everything that’s happened. When Nick is back we’ll do some Draft bits for the channel too.
@@DNReacts I really love how you take the time to reply, thanks man, appreciate it, and all the work you do, can't wait for another great video from ya guys
BYU= Brigham Young University in Utah. The Mormon school. Great memory on the USC/Texas Rose Bowl! If you ask me it’s the greatest college football game in my lifetime. My Wisconsin Badgers are always on the wrong side of the highlights in these clips 😅 I really enjoy college football but that second clip highlights a problem I have with it. There you have an undefeated University of Central Florida playing outside of the College Football Playoff because their strength of schedule was deemed too weak. All of the teams in this video are ostensibly playing for the same championship but unlike in basketball it seems there are entire conferences that are deemed too weak to make the playoffs regardless of how good their teams are. If undefeated teams can’t get in who can? Hopefully the expansion of the College Football Playoff prevents something like this happening again.
The GREATEST finish in college football history is known simply as "The PLAY." It happened in 1982 in "The Big Game", the 85th annual rivalry match between Stanford University and CAL (University of California - Berkley). After multiple lead changes, iconic Stanford quarterback (future NFL hall of famer) John Elway, in his final college game, managed another of his signature 4th quarter come from behind drives, putting his team into field goal range with just eight seconds to play. Mark Harmon then kicked a 35-yard field goal, giving Stanford what appeared to be a 20-19 last second victory. What happened next is considered by many as the most DRAMATIC and unbelievable finish in college football HISTORY... m.th-cam.com/video/OGl107O5r94/w-d-xo.html
@DN Reacts Good stuff! I'm enjoying your content. You are fast learners and have great game sense, intuitively picking up on very nuanced and often compex elements in sports that are new to you. Impressive!
There was something else going on in the first LSU/Auburn clip that they didn’t show. I can’t remember exactly because it’s been so long but LSU got screwed. There was something happening with the clock. Either the ref was dragging ass spotting the ball or Auburn was delaying play somehow.
The only thing worse than losing in 7OT? Losing in 7OT after you already dumped Gatorade on the head coach to celebrate the win. And that was a cold night.
BYU, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah, was founded by Brigham Young, leader of the Latter Day Saints church. "The Mormons." Utah is a rival university, in Salt Lake City. The schools are about an hour apart. Thanks for being interested.
Hey guys, just wanted to say I love the college football reactions! As a huge Michigan Wolverines fan, who naturally hates the Ohio State Buckeyes, I would like to recommend a video to react to about the Michigan-Ohio State rivalry. There is a half hour documentary HBO did on it about 15 years ago that talks about why the rivalry is the biggest in all of college sports and perhaps the biggest in all of American sports. For instance, the Michigan-Ohio State game was by far the most viewed game of the season this past year and is almost always the most watched college football game every season. Both also have stadiums that seat 100,000+ with Michigan having the largest football stadium, college or pro in the world. OSU I think has the third or fourth largest. I also wouldn't mind watching you react to the game from last season, '22, where both were undefeated and OSU was ranked #2 and Michigan #3 in the country. It was a huge game. And I don't want to give away any more than that. The '21 game in the snow would also be a great game to react to.
You need to react to “The Play” from the 1982 Cal vs Stanford! It’s widely regarded as the craziest ending in American football history professional or college
You guys got the game down. You watch it a few times and it all connects, and as well you will start to recognize players in NCAA games that are now in the NFL.
The first round of the NFL Draft was last night. I don't think it's something you guys could necessarily react to, but something you might find interesting to pay attention to. It's the bridge between the college game and the NFL. What are the needs of the teams? The best player doesn't necessarily get picked first depending on what position a team needs. What are some of the trades that go on before and during the draft? Example: My Chicago Bears. Not a great season last year (3 wins - 13 losses), but that was somewhat expected. But we've got a stud Quarterback in Justin Fields who had a pretty historic season. Some might not agree with that assessment, but he's our guy. With that league worst record, the Bears got the #1 overall pick in this year's draft. But they didn't just use that to pick a single player. One player wouldn't make a difference on a team that needs a ton of improvement. It's much more valuable to use that pick to get more bodies on the team. So they traded that pick a few weeks ago to the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers took that #1 pick to get a Quarterback (that the Bears don’t need) and the Bears got the Panthers 1st round pick (#9 overall), their 2nd Round pick (#61), their 1st round pick for the 2024 draft and their 2nd round pick for 2025, and a solid primary wide receiver going into his 5th NFL season in DJ Moore. Quite a haul. Then on draft day last night, they took that 1st round #9 pick and traded down again with Philadelphia to get their 1st round pick (#10) one spot down, and Philadelphia’s 4th round pick for 2024. In the end, that’s potentially 6 players they’re getting for that single pick. Interesting stuff.
As comments are saying, BYU is Brigham Young U - which is affiliated with the Mormon religion. Brigham Young the man was one of the early leaders of Mormonism in the 1800s and helped found the school. I only mention all that to say that when or if you get to videos about NFL Hall of Fame QB Steve Young - Brigham was his great-great-grandfather (maybe 3 greats). Steve was an All-American QB at BYU, attending the school named after his own ancestor.
I saw one of the clips where UCF won their bowl game to go undefeated on the year. That year UCF was calling themselves the true National Champions, and, considering the actual National champion had 2 losses on the year, and that the, at the time new College Football Playoff was supposed to cater more to teams like UCF, who play only FBS opponents in non-conference ganes, and less to teams like Alabama, who pad their record by playing FCS (Lower divison) teams in their non-conference schedule. They had a legitimate claim. It would be like if you could win the Premier League, by only facing League Championship or lower opposition.
Some facts: BYU (Brigham Young University) is named after the man who lead the mormon religion followers to Utah in the mid 1800s. Most of the students are mormons. ...I was glad to see some clips from my university, UCF (University of Central Florida)!
in honor of the draft WE HAVE GOT to get these guys playing madden! if you would like to see this too like this so they know. it would be a blast to watch you guys figure out the game.
OMG I just have to provide more context the Ohio State vs Purdue clip is Markus Bailey I played high school football with him and when I watched him do that being a Buckeye fan I was sad but I was so excited for him that I remember screaming OMG Markus pick that when I saw it go towards him and then he had wide open field in front of him and I was like take that shit back you deserve it. They had a young man that followed their team that went to Purdue that had cancer I believe and he wanted them to beat Ohio State in Columbus and they did it was pretty wild because as you can see OSU was 7-0 ranked number 2 and Purdue was 3-3 unranked. Also you guys should add Ohio State's 2014-15 season to the list of things to react to because that was an incredible season from them especially at the end.
Not knowing who BYU is ok. Remember there's around 120 schools in the FBS (Division 1), and you guys seem to remember like 20 of them. Which is pretty good. You've also done 3 of the Power 5 stadium tours. So there's a lot of schools you've yet to see.
Brigham Young University is in Utah. Utah is known as the Utes. Coincidentally Brigham Young is largely responsible for their being a lack of Utes in Utah. The rivalry is known as the Holy War
So in college football if u have a number next to your name on the scoreboard that’s your teams rank in all of college football the lower the rank u are, gives u a better chance and being in the national championship game, kinda like the Super Bowl but for college, so an upset would be unranked Pitt beating second ranked Clemson, u lose your rank goes up so u want to keep winning to lower your rank, hopefully that makes sense!
BYU is a mormon school in Provo Utah, they are one of those teams not in a power conference but is good enough to play with teams that are, they are really close to University Of Utah, and if I remember from my college days, they hate each others guts, students and players from both schools frequently get arrested for doing messed up shit to the others campus, pretty funny seeing how that comes out in goody 2 shoes mormons over football.
11:30 he did mean to do that, the rule in college is once your knee hits the ground, play ends. He did that to end the play, but, since he didn't hear the whistle to end the play, he got up and took off,knowing it would be reviewed.
That A&M comeback against LSU could only happen in college. In the NFL if a player falls on his own and he isnt touched down by an opposing player then play continues

Insane game from Baltimore Ravens vs Miami Dolphins Week 2 highlights is a must see top 3 game from last season! Both teams had record breaking stats in different categories in that one game!
Thank you, appreciate your support! Have added these suggestions to our list
Joe Burrow and Ja'mar Chase (LSU) from that game are both with the Bengals as well.
@@stephenpgibbs There are so many players from both these teams as NFL starters currently its amazing!
Ive enjoyed you guys learning the real football. I can tell you appreciate it.
Thank you, appreciate the comment, been really enjoying the journey.
.
For context on the UCF VS Auburn clip. That year UCF who is normally a mediocre program that goes like 6-6 went 12-0 and were ranked 12 the playoff committee said they played no one that was good and so they refused to give them better rankings and stiffed them a top 4 ranking and the chance to play for the national championship. They gave them a BCS bowl bid against #7 Auburn in the peach bowl who were 10-3 but had victories over Alabama and Georgia when both teams were ranked number 1, Georgia and Bama played each other in the national championship. Auburn entered the game 10 point favorites to win and UCF came in and played lights out and won. Their fans claimed national champions after being the only undefeated team. The NCAA actually now recognizes both Alabama and UCF as the 2018 NCAA National Champions. It was an absolute Cinderella story for their team and one that was so glad I got to see. They went on to win 26 straight games before losing. Thank you for reminding me about this.
Another interesting fact about the UCF-Auburn matchup is that Auburn's coach during the Peach Bowl, Gus Malzahn, is the current Head Coach at UCF.
That LSU/Texas A&M game prompted a rule change to the way overtime is played. I believe it was the longest game in terms of real time ever played!
If you are watching Miracle college football plays you should find a video from the 1982 Cal/Stanford game. The final play of that game is simply called "The Play." It's the most memorable ending in a college football game of all-time (apologies if you saw it in a previous college football video).
I second this...
"The most amazing, sensational, dramatic, heart-rending... exciting, thrilling finish in the history of college football!"
Thanks Wisey, this is one we have recorded. Due out on the channel in a couple of weeks time.
13:50 Your initial reaction of "how?" is correct as usually it would be an interception.
However, every once in a while, especially on very long and high passes the defenders will misjudge either the length of the throw and/or the timing of their jump and the ball will sail over them all to a waiting receiver. Its very rare, but definitely something that happens. Outside of any kind of windy conditions my experience is not only is it inherently hard to track a football from 50-70 yards away on a huge arc, but this length/trajectory is unusual enough where the regular timing of the defensive backs is disrupted. They're very often accelerating rapidly to close the distance on receivers with lower trajectory and quicker arriving passes, in these cases the natural inclination to move towards the ball may inadvertently "suck them in" leading towards an overshoot.
We grew up playing a game called "3 flys/flies up" where it was basically a recreation of this scenario and a QB would launch these types of passes and a group of us would fight for catches and a chance to rotate to QB. Not only did it teach you how to judge the flight of this type of throw, but it also reinforced how to time your jump and attack the ball at the highest point. Alternatively, what often happened was the ball would be tipped and the catch was made by those prepared and actively looking for rebounds and caroms.
All in all it's a deceptively difficult situation for the defender, even if they're just sitting back there waiting on the ball to come down. The last wildcard is traditionally most cornerbacks are shorter than their receiver counterparts, so they'll have even more inclination/incentive to be aggressive to offset their height imbalance. if you ever see a tall receiver or tight end with a strong basketball background, they're especially dangerous situations as their body positioning, timing, and fighting instincts for securing basketball rebounds translates perfectly here....either to compete for the original catch, or securing deflections with quick and "sticky" hands.
Enjoy the videos fellas, have a great weekend!!
"3 flys/flies up"
I haven't heard or thought of that game in ages...
Excellent description of the complex dynamics of this situation. Also, add the increased difficulty of tracking the ball at night, under artificial lighting (you lose sight of the ball in the lights), with the added caution by defenders to avoid a pass interference penalty, makes this situation far more challenging than it appears.
Thank you for this comment, really appreciate it! Great info
Damo recognizing the 06 Rose Bowl and Tyreek Hill is awesome! You guys are no beginners anymore 😂
Thank you, we really appreciate it, we’re getting there 🤝
Love your reactions and watching you grow into the College and Pro game! You may get better context on these compilation games by pausing at the beginning of each play just to get bearings and get context by looking at the scoreboard on the screen. So much info. Time left, who's losing, what down, rank and record of each team. (great for gauging the magnitude of the fans especially when its a big upset). Keep it up!
Thank you Eli, appreciate the comment and suggestion, thanks!
11:15 I don't know if any other videos you've seen explain this, but college football has really weird overtime. Each team gets a chance on offense, with the ball starting 25 yards away from a touchdown - so they're already in field goal range - and if they're still tied after that, they try again.
Now, the rules at the time were that, starting with the 3rd OT, if a team scored a touchdown with their possession, they had to go for a 2-point conversion afterward - no extra point kicks.
Now they make teams go for 2 after a touchdown in the 2nd OT, and if they're still tied, every overtime after that is just a single play for each team: One team lines up for a 2-point attempt, then the other team does, and it goes back and forth until there's a winner.
The reason I say that's weird is because what makes a team good in overtime is different from what makes a team good during the entire rest of the game. It's deciding wins and losses based on a very very very small part of a whole football game.
It's a bit like how knockout soccer tournaments have penalty kicks at the end - except soccer is so low scoring that, without PK's to break the tie, the game could go on forever. As you've seen, college football games have no problem putting points on the board.
Sorry for the length of this post, but it's definitely one irritation I have with college football. If two teams are that closely matched that even 1 or 2 overtimes can't separate them, then what's wrong with calling the game a tie and letting these full time college students get a little extra sleep? If the NFL is okay with a tie for their professional athletes, that should be good enough for college kids.
Love these video guys!🙏 college football starts in 3 weeks, and it’s gonna be the most exciting season yet with all the conference realignment!!
Just some info for reviews in college football- when an initial call is made, if there is something that needs to be reviewed, they will be contacted by the conference. The review needs to happen before the next play. After the review, the refs will say if a call was “confirmed”, “stands”, or is “overturned”. To overturn a call, “indisputable video evidence” is needed. “Confirmed” means that the initial ref call was confirmed. “Stands” means that for whatever reason, there’s not evidence on either way with the initial call, so the original call stands. “Overturned” means that the initial call was overturned. Because of this, this typically means that most reviews are not overturned.
I was at the Rose Bowl game (last clip) and as a Penn State fan it was the most hurt a football game has ever made me feel.
The first clip, the reason why that was a close review is that the in Stadium clocks, and the offical clock also count in milliseconds. The on field clocks read 0.01 when LSU got the snap off, it was reviewed because the official clock had a different reading. On review the offical clock read 0.00 prior to the snap rendering the play dead. And Auburn gets the upset.
That LSU vs Texas A&M 74-72 game was absolutley insane, I remember watching it live and not believing what I was seeing. Definitely worth going back and watching the highlights for that one
The refs were desperate for aTm to win that game. A couple of different times in that OT they botched calls that would have clinched an LSU win.
As an Iowa fan, when you made the comment “that’s an especially low score,” I almost choked on my food. If you watch a lot of Iowa football, you will be shocked to see how many games they win with scores like that one. No other team in America has a better defense and special teams, while simultaneously having a worse offense 😂
Great video and reaction - thanks for sharing.
Thank you Jedd
3:50 also a huge rivalry, makes it an even bigger deal
I was at that Texas A&M-LSU 7-Overtime game---it was AWESOME.
I've mentioned it before, one of big dufferences between NCAA and NFL are the "hash marks" down the center of the field (pitch). In the NFL they are in-line with the goalposts (uprights). But in college they are much further apart. This results is much steeper angles when kicking field goals up close. You will see missed kicks more often in college games. Again, to explain, if the previous play ends out-of-bounds or between the hash-mark and the out-of-bounds (sidelines) the ball is placed at the nearest hash-mark. If a play ends anywhere between the hash-marks the ball is placed there for the next play.
It's awesome seeing Brits embrace our giant American sport of Football. Once you understand the game it is very exciting.
BTW, BYU is Brigham Young University, a Mormon University also in Utah. So, big in-state rivalry in Utah with BYU in Provo, UT and Utah U in Salt Lake City, UT
You guys are getting to be old hands at this American football stuff. Remembering the dates and the bowl games is crazy good, especially being pretty new to the sport. Great job.
Hi Damo and Nick, you guys have made great progress in such a short time. You guys are really grasping everything and I didn't see any misunderstanding in your reviews of the plays. I am sure everyone has mentioned that BYU is Bring Young University in Utah. That was a big rivalry game between them and Utah, I think the campuses are only a few miles from each other. Keep up the great reviews, hope when you go to the batting cages you can film it, I would bet that you will both hit the 30 mph pitches, the basic of batting review a few days ago was a good one too.
Your memory was amazing. Do you cram for these the night before? I could understand you remembering the specific play. But, when you came up with the year and bowl name, I was truly impressed.
We actually don’t, we go into every video blind. Damo’s memory is definitely better than mine 😂
You blokes are swift learners! Throwing out the one foot in bounds college rule like it was nothing. Also, I wish I could understand Cricket as well as you guys now know American football.
You called it. The Texas-USC game was the 2006 Rose Bowl! Also, in the LSU vs Texas A&M game, I completely agree that quarterback's knee being down was pure luck because he had no reason to down it in that situation. It was lucky but completely saved the game for them.
@DNReacts what you said at 2:35 has its caveats but is correct in American collegiate football there are 3 ways a call can be adjudicated ( auburn / central Florida )
1. call on the field confirmed : you don’t need to go to replay
2. Call on the field overturned : you need replay to make sure you have all views which could overrule the play on the field ( usually done during the last 2:00 of a game )
3. Call on the field STANDS : the referee goes to the replay booth and cannot find any evidence to overturn the call that was made on the field of play
Note : if either the 2nd or 3rd situation is broached a red flag in the left pocket of the coach can be thrown on the field ( where there is a possibility of losing a timeout IF the call is overturning ) or can be instated by the replay booth ( which means you keep the timeout )
BYU is Bringam Young University
Thank you!!
Brigham*
@@elijahfoster2 sorry that was a dropped ball on my part. I didn't proofread before posting.
@@fishfinder6427 “Bringam Young” sounds like an actual insult a University of Utah fan would come up with 😂
Brigham and Young. Two small colleges joined together and are now BYU
Thank you for confirming 🤝
fastest growing channel on youtube! keep it up
Thank you Tony!
Gotta watch Brian Urlacher Chicago Bears highlights. It was always amazing to see a man that gigantic move that fast
Nicholas are you happy with our pick in the draft last night with Wright? Sounds like they're really trying to protect Fields.
Hope you guys saw the NFL draft last night, kinda crazy lol, but was awesome, just like your content guys, as always, thanks, and keep up the good work
Thanks Bradley, Nick caught the Draft, I had a work engagement but I’ve just caught up on everything that’s happened. When Nick is back we’ll do some Draft bits for the channel too.
@@DNReacts I really love how you take the time to reply, thanks man, appreciate it, and all the work you do, can't wait for another great video from ya guys
This video is crazier than the first 2 in my opinion.
BYU= Brigham Young University in Utah. The Mormon school.
Great memory on the USC/Texas Rose Bowl! If you ask me it’s the greatest college football game in my lifetime.
My Wisconsin Badgers are always on the wrong side of the highlights in these clips 😅
I really enjoy college football but that second clip highlights a problem I have with it. There you have an undefeated University of Central Florida playing outside of the College Football Playoff because their strength of schedule was deemed too weak. All of the teams in this video are ostensibly playing for the same championship but unlike in basketball it seems there are entire conferences that are deemed too weak to make the playoffs regardless of how good their teams are. If undefeated teams can’t get in who can? Hopefully the expansion of the College Football Playoff prevents something like this happening again.
The GREATEST finish in college football history is known simply as "The PLAY." It happened in 1982 in "The Big Game", the 85th annual rivalry match between Stanford University and CAL (University of California - Berkley). After multiple lead changes, iconic Stanford quarterback (future NFL hall of famer) John Elway, in his final college game, managed another of his signature 4th quarter come from behind drives, putting his team into field goal range with just eight seconds to play. Mark Harmon then kicked a 35-yard field goal, giving Stanford what appeared to be a 20-19 last second victory. What happened next is considered by many as the most DRAMATIC and unbelievable finish in college football HISTORY...

Thanks for this one, it’s one that we have recorded and should be out on the channel in a couple of weeks 🤞
@DN Reacts Good stuff! I'm enjoying your content. You are fast learners and have great game sense, intuitively picking up on very nuanced and often compex elements in sports that are new to you. Impressive!
There was something else going on in the first LSU/Auburn clip that they didn’t show. I can’t remember exactly because it’s been so long but LSU got screwed. There was something happening with the clock. Either the ref was dragging ass spotting the ball or Auburn was delaying play somehow.
The only thing worse than losing in 7OT? Losing in 7OT after you already dumped Gatorade on the head coach to celebrate the win.
And that was a cold night.
Biggest college football miracle of all time is the TCU made it to the national championship game last year. BYU is Brigham Young University.
National championship played in the 🌹 Bowl❤
Texas won 🌹🎉🎉🎉
BYU, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah, was founded by Brigham Young, leader of the Latter Day Saints church. "The Mormons." Utah is a rival university, in Salt Lake City. The schools are about an hour apart. Thanks for being interested.
best type of video there is
I graduated from BYU (Brigham Young University, in Provo, Utah) in 1994 and then from University of Utah in Salt Lake
city, Utah in1997.
Hey guys, just wanted to say I love the college football reactions! As a huge Michigan Wolverines fan, who naturally hates the Ohio State Buckeyes, I would like to recommend a video to react to about the Michigan-Ohio State rivalry. There is a half hour documentary HBO did on it about 15 years ago that talks about why the rivalry is the biggest in all of college sports and perhaps the biggest in all of American sports.
For instance, the Michigan-Ohio State game was by far the most viewed game of the season this past year and is almost always the most watched college football game every season. Both also have stadiums that seat 100,000+ with Michigan having the largest football stadium, college or pro in the world. OSU I think has the third or fourth largest.
I also wouldn't mind watching you react to the game from last season, '22, where both were undefeated and OSU was ranked #2 and Michigan #3 in the country. It was a huge game. And I don't want to give away any more than that. The '21 game in the snow would also be a great game to react to.
Thanks Jon, appreciate the comment! Have added the Documentary and games to our list too, thanks for these
You need to react to “The Play” from the 1982 Cal vs Stanford! It’s widely regarded as the craziest ending in American football history professional or college
You guys got the game down. You watch it a few times and it all connects, and as well you will start to recognize players in NCAA games that are now in the NFL.
The first round of the NFL Draft was last night. I don't think it's something you guys could necessarily react to, but something you might find interesting to pay attention to. It's the bridge between the college game and the NFL. What are the needs of the teams? The best player doesn't necessarily get picked first depending on what position a team needs. What are some of the trades that go on before and during the draft?
Example: My Chicago Bears. Not a great season last year (3 wins - 13 losses), but that was somewhat expected. But we've got a stud Quarterback in Justin Fields who had a pretty historic season. Some might not agree with that assessment, but he's our guy. With that league worst record, the Bears got the #1 overall pick in this year's draft. But they didn't just use that to pick a single player. One player wouldn't make a difference on a team that needs a ton of improvement. It's much more valuable to use that pick to get more bodies on the team.
So they traded that pick a few weeks ago to the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers took that #1 pick to get a Quarterback (that the Bears don’t need) and the Bears got the Panthers 1st round pick (#9 overall), their 2nd Round pick (#61), their 1st round pick for the 2024 draft and their 2nd round pick for 2025, and a solid primary wide receiver going into his 5th NFL season in DJ Moore. Quite a haul. Then on draft day last night, they took that 1st round #9 pick and traded down again with Philadelphia to get their 1st round pick (#10) one spot down, and Philadelphia’s 4th round pick for 2024. In the end, that’s potentially 6 players they’re getting for that single pick. Interesting stuff.
No one is reading this sorry
@@davisjames9174 I actually just did. Sorry
@@davisjames9174 I did. sorry
@@Luindir22 congrats on wasting your time?? Sorry
@@michaelsmith-iu1be you too bro
Definitely gotta react to the LSU/TAMU game now haha
BYU = Brigham Young University. Brigham Young was the father of the Mormon religion which is primarily prevalent in Utah.
The LSU vs Texas AnM is crazy. Best game I’ve watched live. It literally would not fucking end
As comments are saying, BYU is Brigham Young U - which is affiliated with the Mormon religion. Brigham Young the man was one of the early leaders of Mormonism in the 1800s and helped found the school. I only mention all that to say that when or if you get to videos about NFL Hall of Fame QB Steve Young - Brigham was his great-great-grandfather (maybe 3 greats). Steve was an All-American QB at BYU, attending the school named after his own ancestor.
BYU is Brigham Young University located in Utah.
Thanks Beverly!
Still waiting for a Chris Johnson Vid. Shot out of a cannon!!! Been saying it for over a month. Lol. When u guys can of course.
I saw one of the clips where UCF won their bowl game to go undefeated on the year. That year UCF was calling themselves the true National Champions, and, considering the actual National champion had 2 losses on the year, and that the, at the time new College Football Playoff was supposed to cater more to teams like UCF, who play only FBS opponents in non-conference ganes, and less to teams like Alabama, who pad their record by playing FCS (Lower divison) teams in their non-conference schedule. They had a legitimate claim. It would be like if you could win the Premier League, by only facing League Championship or lower opposition.
As an LSU fan the 7th overtime game is a sore subject. But we got them back the next year 50-7
BYU is Brigham Young University. It's a Mormon college. Their players aren't allowed to have sex.
They can have sex, just gotta get married
Y’all picking up on ball pretty quick!
Thank you Jake!
byu is for brigham young university, its a mormon college in utah thats why theres a rivalry with utah university
Some facts: BYU (Brigham Young University) is named after the man who lead the mormon religion followers to Utah in the mid 1800s. Most of the students are mormons.
...I was glad to see some clips from my university, UCF (University of Central Florida)!
BYU is Brigham Young University, a religious school for the Mormons located in Utah in the US.
That Michigan State game was a season changer
in honor of the draft WE HAVE GOT to get these guys playing madden! if you would like to see this too like this so they know. it would be a blast to watch you guys figure out the game.
The complete opposite of the 74-72 LSU vs A&M score. Auburn vs Mississippi State ended in a score of 3-2. I don’t remember what year.
12:24 NICE BLOCK
The 18 next to LSU is their ranking in the NCAA top 25 poll for the week.
OMG I just have to provide more context the Ohio State vs Purdue clip is Markus Bailey I played high school football with him and when I watched him do that being a Buckeye fan I was sad but I was so excited for him that I remember screaming OMG Markus pick that when I saw it go towards him and then he had wide open field in front of him and I was like take that shit back you deserve it. They had a young man that followed their team that went to Purdue that had cancer I believe and he wanted them to beat Ohio State in Columbus and they did it was pretty wild because as you can see OSU was 7-0 ranked number 2 and Purdue was 3-3 unranked. Also you guys should add Ohio State's 2014-15 season to the list of things to react to because that was an incredible season from them especially at the end.
Brigham Young University produced two Superbowl winning quarterbacks in Jim McMahon and Steve Young.
It’s Brigham Young University. Crazy game!
You guys should definitely watch that Texas A&M vs LSU 7 Overtime game!
Gotta watch that usc vs penn state rose bowl
Yes you were right you only need 1 foot down in college not 2 for a catch.
13:35 I was at this game . Not happy about it..
Great reaction. Glancing down the comments... I doubt that you gentleman will have any trouble remembering who BYU is in the future. ;-)
I think we’ve got it remembered for future videos 😂 Thanks for the comment, really appreciate it!
Not knowing who BYU is ok. Remember there's around 120 schools in the FBS (Division 1), and you guys seem to remember like 20 of them. Which is pretty good. You've also done 3 of the Power 5 stadium tours. So there's a lot of schools you've yet to see.
Brigham Young University is in Utah. Utah is known as the Utes. Coincidentally Brigham Young is largely responsible for their being a lack of Utes in Utah.
The rivalry is known as the Holy War
So in college football if u have a number next to your name on the scoreboard that’s your teams rank in all of college football the lower the rank u are, gives u a better chance and being in the national championship game, kinda like the Super Bowl but for college, so an upset would be unranked Pitt beating second ranked Clemson, u lose your rank goes up so u want to keep winning to lower your rank, hopefully that makes sense!
BYU is a mormon school in Provo Utah, they are one of those teams not in a power conference but is good enough to play with teams that are, they are really close to University Of Utah, and if I remember from my college days, they hate each others guts, students and players from both schools frequently get arrested for doing messed up shit to the others campus, pretty funny seeing how that comes out in goody 2 shoes mormons over football.
Im still new to this channel have they seen the stanford band play yet?
Hi Mike, thanks for the comment, we have recorded that one. It’s due out in about 2 weeks time onto the channel.
11:30 he did mean to do that, the rule in college is once your knee hits the ground, play ends. He did that to end the play, but, since he didn't hear the whistle to end the play, he got up and took off,knowing it would be reviewed.
You should react to that very last usc vs pen state game
That A&M comeback against LSU could only happen in college. In the NFL if a player falls on his own and he isnt touched down by an opposing player then play continues
