College Football Season Is Here

We are HUGE college football fans in the Sjoholm house - particularly SEC fans. In honor of the 2008 season (and UGA's #1 preseason ranking), here are some of my favorite 'Big Hits' college fooball YouTube clips:

Greg Blue of UGA:


Greg Jones of FSU dropping the hammer:


Craig Steltz of LSU:


Matt Ryan getting a Clemson Tiger paw tattooed on his sternum:


Herschel Walker - Classic:


The Hobnailed Boot
(Michelle and I were sitting in the endzone - Verron caught it right in front of us. I almost lost my life because I was surrounded by Tennessee fans):


The best things about College Football are the unique traditions that each school has. Here are a few of my favorites:

Clemson Tigers - running down the hill. The Clemson players are bussed in from the practice field about 5 minutes before kickoff, and all assemble at Howard's Rock at the top of 'The Hill'. The crowd is going insane, Tiger-Rag is playing, the fire the cannon, and the Tigers run down the hill. AKA - 'The most exciting 25 seconds in College Football'.


Alabama Crimson Tide - Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer.


Yes, that last clip was Bama beating UT last season. To keep me from sleeping in the garage (my wife is a proud UT graduate), I can't leave out Rocky Top:


Let the games begin...
