🏈 The NFL Returns || SEC v. Big Ten Showdown 💪

September 06, 2024

The King has returned, baby! As of last night, the NFL season is back in action and there are a number of compelling games for kickoff week! It's time to dust off your jerseys, fire up the grill, and prepare for another season of touchdowns, field goals, and the occasional questionable referee call 🤦‍♂️

While the NFL is gearing up for Week 1, the CFB rollercoaster ride has gotten off to a fast start. And one doesn’t need to look beyond the state of Florida to get a feel for the crazy highs and lows of college football. FSU fans find themselves in a nightmare, while Miami fans are dreaming of a trip to the CFB Playoff! (While it is definitely hot this time of year in Florida, there is a seat in Tallahassee that will be 🔥burning up🔥 soon if FSU doesn’t turn it around. Perhaps a return to FSU is in the cards for Deion *Prime Time* Sanders? 🤷‍♂️)

TRIVIA
 🌹 Once upon a time in Pasadena🌹 

Michigan and Texas meet in Ann Arbor this weekend for a Big Ten-SEC showdown. Despite being two of the most storied programs in college football history, these two teams have only met once before - in the Rose Bowl on January 1, 2005, which Texas won 38-37. Do you know who the starting quarterbacks were for Michigan and Texas for that game?

Chad Henne (Michigan) and Vince Young (Texas) started that classic 2005 Rose Bowl game between Michigan and Texas! Let’s hope the game this weekend is as good as that Rose Bowl game 🤞🤞
