The 2022 college football season is upon us, and that means grown men and women yelling nonsense.
We start with the September 1st West Virginia-Pittsburgh game. This game is referred to as "The Backyard Brawl", and the reason I know that is because the announcing team said the expression 13 times.....
and I started watching the game with about 8 1/2 minutes left in the third quarter.
Other nonsense:
"remember when I said this game was energy drink? now it's more lukewarm milk"
"coming up with a PBU" (just say pass break up)
"backs against the wall"
"look out for No. 12 because he's gonna be getting better, a lot"
!
WVU up 31-24, 10 1/2 minutes left:
"every possession counts"
9/2 - Virginia Tech-Old Dominion, ESPN
"use his legs as a check down"

"they are holding up this game because some coaches are caught in the elevator"
9/15 - Kansas City-San Diego, NFL Network

"Herbert trying to take a page out of Patrick Mahomes"
Mahomes is made of pages?
"the loser of this game's gonna have a loss"
thanks, Al Michaels!
