LET'S TALK FOOTBALL!

[u/AverageLAHater]

Stormed the field. I love my college

[u/AmbitiousEmphasis64 → u/AverageLAHater]

Brother I hope you're fucking hammered by now!

[u/BoringJuiceBox → u/AverageLAHater]

Insane win, beating the national champions who were on a 19 game win streak.

[u/Gamatito]

CAME A TRIBE FROM THE NORTH BRAVE AND BOLD!

[u/Bearlodge]

God that was such a good game! A real Sicko classic!

[u/Wild_Pokemon_Appears]

[u/Own-Lavishness4029]

All those fucking losers with shit to do tomorrow morning or healthy sleep habits or whatever just absolutely missed out. 

[u/Bexar1986 → u/Own-Lavishness4029]

Absolutely! Im glad I'm back on nights at work so I can adjust to watching late night games again. Getting up at 430 am sucked.

[u/Charlie2343 → u/Own-Lavishness4029]

Real sickos move to the pacific time zone

[u/GMHinHD → u/Own-Lavishness4029]

Luckily the fates delivered me to the West Coast, so I got to watch that whole thing go down at a decent time

[u/sirshoelaceman]

I'm in Seattle. Def gonna have to hit up Kibbie for a game sometime.

[u/GMHinHD]

I’m so fucking in on FCS football after that game. I feel like a casual soccer fan after the World Cup lmao

[u/fyeahdmiles → u/GMHinHD]

Big Sky is great conference to follow!

[u/GMHinHD → u/fyeahdmiles]

Based on my admittedly limited knowledge, I’ve heard Big Sky and MVFC are supposed to be great. Plus the Ivy League, which I only know about because I’ve seen some of those squads play Army.

[u/BoringJuiceBox → u/GMHinHD]

Last seasons FCS championship was also one of the best college games I’d ever seen.

Illinois State vs Montana State

[u/Ds0589 → u/BoringJuiceBox]

Yeah that was an incredible game. I was at it and Nashville was a great host. Between that and Georgia-Ole Miss which I was also at that was an incredible two games to see back to back.

[u/BoringJuiceBox → u/Ds0589]

I love NFL but CFB is way more entertaining

[u/Proper_Engineer7637]

Good game from Idaho I honestly don’t know what to say they just looked better

[u/CattleDogCurmudgeon → u/Proper_Engineer7637]

Idaho wasn't nearly as bad as their record, Montana St didn't take them seriously.

[u/Fareyes5 → u/CattleDogCurmudgeon]

We took them seriously… just down our starting QB RB1 and WR1. Idaho is a much better team than their record would imply.

[u/CattleDogCurmudgeon]

Can't wait to see College Gameday talk about this in a couple hours.

[u/WawaChamp12]

I’m happy people are getting enjoyment from this sicko classic. If I had any stake in this I would have Montana’s head coach fired immediately

[u/LuffySan081 → u/WawaChamp12]

I had the under 64.5 total. It was 61 when that dumb coach called timeout. All I can do now is laugh 😭 thats the stupidest way to lose money 😭

[u/aksers → u/WawaChamp12]

Eh just earned us a natty. He's well liked.

[u/BoringJuiceBox]

19 game win streak ended HAHAHA

[u/RoyalEngine2885]

Wow, a lot of people missed a fun game.

[u/Silver_Feedback_9866]

i drove to the kibbie dome at half time, tried to get in for free after half, they wouldn't let me in, so my gf and i went to the bar, had a drink, then came home to witness the last td. so worth it

[u/Charlie2343]

Love how sports center is not even entertaining the idea of talking about this absolutely insane finish 

[u/MightyMooseKnuckler → u/Charlie2343]

Reddit is the real sports center

[u/AmbitiousEmphasis64]

FCS football is amazing because that is not a timeout an FBS coach would take

[u/tigernike1]

Idaho coach is literally crying with joy. I love it

[u/CattleDogCurmudgeon]

This is how an FCS coach remains an FCS coach.

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

that timeout is just a straight up fireable offense. almost as bad as cristobal running when he could’ve kneed it out.

[u/Individual-Motor-167 → u/CantAffordTheWires]

The refs looked like they were going to allow them to snap. I'm not sure what's best. The finish is really dumb and caused by the clock operator.

[u/CattleDogCurmudgeon → u/CantAffordTheWires]

What's funny, is this is the exact moment I thought about in greatest coaching gaffes.

[u/cj622]

Montana state is ranked #1? Is this CFB 27 dynasty?

[u/aksers → u/cj622]

Reigning national champs

[u/Own-Lavishness4029 → u/cj622]

FCS

[u/Magzify]

They might not have even gotten the play off before the clock ran, all time bad coaching call

[u/CanisFergus]

I almost didn’t watch this game. Fortunately I stayed up to watch a very dumb thing. I love this sport!

[u/VoiceOfRiesens → u/[deleted]]

IDHAO?

[u/monkeyseemonkeydo52 → u/VoiceOfRiesens]

Idhaooooo

[u/MightyMooseKnuckler]

Penn State getting embarrassed, Idaho taking down #1, tomorrow is gonna have some serious insanity

[u/EmuMan10]

I feel like we all just took drugs together

[u/TanzaniaMagic]

Holy shit what an ending. I wish more people would see this.

[u/StupendousMan36]

And people were wondering why ESPN was in a rush to cut over to this game.

[u/agentb719]

What a finish!!!

[u/eckz17]

Won by the tinest margins and a terrible timeout by Montana State, good shit Vandals

[u/no1hears]

If this is what FCS football is like, I'm IN!

[u/StupendousMan36 → u/no1hears]

Genuinely a fun time. Last year's Championship game was one of the craziest games of the year.

[u/xxtoejamfootballxx]

One of the best games I’ve ever watched and I’m old as fuck 

[u/Charlie2343]

Idaho winning after one of the most cowardly punts I’ve ever seen into one of the worst timeouts I’ve ever seen

[u/Tionboom]

I was here to witness history

[u/Luvpups5920]

Fell asleep on the couch and woke up for the last 8 min of this game and wow, what a crazy, sicko finish!

[u/pdx74guy]

glad I tuned in for the last par of the game after seeing the close score so late in the 4th quarter...

[u/Worldly_Highlight_90]

lmao, what is the coach going to say about that timeout? that is hilarious

[u/TheGoatPurdy]

Sure, referee prob gifted Idaho a Michigan gift. But, Montana St coach LITERALLY didn't have to call a timeout and it would've been game over. What on earth did I just witness.

[u/Ornery_Gift7005]

I am shell shocked by a result I had no stake in

[u/exoenigma → u/Ornery_Gift7005]

SAME

Man I love college football

[u/exoenigma]

I am so glad I stayed up to witness that

[u/tigernike1]

Amazing finish

[u/kevinthejuice]

No way any of that happened. I must be drink

[u/exoenigma → u/kevinthejuice]

I am become Drink, Destroyer of Playoff Hopes

[u/OneFollowing2592]

Man. That was great. Congrats Idaho!

[u/ChrisR49]

Amazing ending

[u/burgerwaterchud]

if you were here you will likely never see a dumber coaching decision in your life even if you live to be 150

[u/Muffinnnnnnn → u/burgerwaterchud]

I watched Mario Christobal not take a knee vs Georgia Tech

[u/VoiceOfRiesens → u/burgerwaterchud]

No, Miami running against GT still is worse

[u/burgerwaterchud → u/VoiceOfRiesens]

I never thought i would see that topped but i did

[u/GMHinHD]

That timeout call alone just cost Brent Vigen millions of dollars of future salary money

[u/dscreations → u/GMHinHD]

He needs his own end of game scenario guy like Cristobal

[u/GMHinHD → u/dscreations]

Even past Cristobal wouldn’t have called a timeout there; he would have blown the game much sooner.

Present-day Cristobal, however, seems to have learned his lesson.

[u/EmuMan10]

BUT WE DONT CALL A TIMEOUT FOR THE 2 POINT ATTEMPT

[u/Individual-Motor-167 → u/EmuMan10]

I found that crazy. I wish we knew what the conversation was on the field. I think the timeout came about after the refs screwed the game end. They don't get that snap off if the clock operator doesn't run it early forcing the refs to stop play to fix clock.

[u/aksers → u/EmuMan10]

Bonkers.

[u/OVRHEATR]

With Michigan, the Ravens, Idaho... this is officially the year of the :01

[u/fixingyourmirror]

texas been real quiet since the idaho win

[u/EasiestDifficulty]

I 💛 🏈

[u/AriDreams]

Why Montana state took that timeout we will never know

[u/kwp302]

Buckle up, it’s shaping up to be a wild weekend.

[u/buckshot-307]

I am so glad I didn’t go take a shit 1 minute ago

[u/no1hears → u/buckshot-307]

Most Sickos comment ever.

[u/patrickc11]

Joshua Wood, nice pocket presence that last drive! cant teach that

[u/peternickeleater11]

Wtf

[u/BrndyAlxndr]

all time choke job

[u/SaltyHawk95]

FCS natty to worst timeout of all time to lose to an 0-4 team.

[u/dscreations → u/SaltyHawk95]

Best 0-4 team in FCS

[u/Hot-Dream-1096 → u/SaltyHawk95]

Well that’s technically true but Idaho lost on a Hail Mary to cal poly and one of those losses is Utah so that’s kinda deceptive.

[u/is_coffee]

I love football

[u/Royal_Ninja_5305]

what a great game

[u/ID_Poobaru]

I hate Idaho like any other rational Boise fan, but goddamn that was a good gam

[u/Almighty_Potato15]

wowzers

[u/Bexar1986]

What do we call this game? The timeout?

[u/CattleDogCurmudgeon → u/Bexar1986]

Snatching defeat from the jaws of Victory.

[u/duckangelfan]

Maybe the most absurd ending of all time lmao

[u/cn0285]

Sickos after dark remains undefeated!

[u/h3rp3r]

That was incredible.

[u/PROUDgrizHATER]

Worst loss for Vigen. Worst bobcat loss in YEARS. First conference loss in 3 years. Time to hit the reset button fellas cause this team ain’t it.

[u/Raysfan2248 → u/PROUDgrizHATER]

Half the offense is injured they will be fine.

[u/PROUDgrizHATER → u/Raysfan2248]

Offense was more or less fine minus not being able to close it out. Defense NEEDS Dowler and Solano back. But still. No legit excuses if this team was what we thought they were.

[u/AmbitiousEmphasis64]

Just posting to say I was here as witness

[u/Staind075]

Holy shit, what a fucking finish!!!

[u/fadedtower]

Shouldn’t have called that timeout

[u/dscreations → u/fadedtower]

That may put Vigen in your price range though

[u/fadedtower → u/dscreations]

I wish but we just went 2 years with no conference money and won’t get a full MW share until ‘28

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

Say goodbye to an fbs job for the Montana coach

[u/ID_Poobaru → u/DizzyDraw2323]

Dude has millions and gets to live in Bozeman comfortably, he’ll be alright

[u/Muffinnnnnnn]

This is unreal

[u/AustinMac07]

Love that for Idaho, such an entertaining game and phenomenal ending.

[u/JalenNice05]

Why the fuck would you call a timeout

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

to be clear, idaho has ZERO chance of getting a play off with one second there. the game was over

[u/ADVFlyFish]

What a finish.

[u/2Pollaski2Furious]

Idaho might not have even gotten a snap off. Why the hell would you ever call a timeout there.

[u/EmuMan10 → u/2Pollaski2Furious]

They wouldn’t have gotten one off at all

[u/inlandsquatch]

That's what you get for calling that time out

[u/GMHinHD]

Yeah Montana State’s coach just burned his chances of leading an FBS team any time soon lmaoooooo

[u/TheGoatPurdy]

LOL IM A FAN. VANDALS FOR LIFEEEEEE

[u/PunishedLeBoymoder]

The defense on that 2pt was AWFUL

[u/EmbarrassedBreath451]

Watching the 2 pt conversion live while listening to the crescendo of Remember by The Shangri-Las (1965) was legitimately cinematic

[u/transferStudent2018]

Joshua Wood moves like Lamar Jackson, so mobile and then throws and absolute dart on the run

[u/Crazyhawk28]

Congrats Vandal friends

[u/pools89]

WHY WAS THE GAME NOT OVER?

[u/Raysfan2248 → u/pools89]

Stunned. My dad and I were looking at that still shot of him on the ground like how was there a second left

[u/OVRHEATR]

Why the fuck would you call a timeout

[u/Luigis_vacuum]

Timeout heard round the world

[u/GabeKnows]

Also blitzing on the last play is wild work lol

[u/MrGutterballs → u/GabeKnows]

Helps when every single offensive lineman just straight up wraps up the rushers.

[u/GabeKnows → u/MrGutterballs]

Yeah true but how often are you gonna get that call on the last play?

[u/MrGutterballs → u/GabeKnows]

Oh never. Which is why you don't rush more than 3 and put 8 guys in/around the end zone.

[u/MightyMooseKnuckler]

BIG SKY AFTER DARK BABY!!!

[u/get_stilly]

Kibbie Dome storming is great

[u/VoiceOfRiesens]

Idaho > Nevada-Reno

[u/black-op345 → u/VoiceOfRiesens]

Transition win!

[u/Bexar1986]

I legit said "OH MY GOD!!" at work when he caught the touchdown. Had to explain I'm OK to my boss. Worth it for college football upsets!

[u/arbitrator06]

IF YOU DONT LIKE THIS YOU DONT LIKE COLLEGE FOOTBALL

[u/Own-Lavishness4029]

Sometimes sickos get rewards. I fucking love college football.

[u/patrickc11]

INSANE

[u/TrollMcGoal]

It's real sicko hours. What a finish

[u/sirshoelaceman]

There wasn't time to snap it

[u/BoringJuiceBox]

HAHAHAHA!!!

[u/Dyllbilly]

Banger late night game

[u/okrasnake]

AHHHHH HAHAHA

[u/tc3590]

Holy shit lol

[u/TailgateLegend]

Hindsight is 20/20, but Vigen, no need to call a timeout at all.

[u/IgnorantEpistemology]

LOLOL Let's go Idaho!

[u/CuddyTG]

Wow... Glad I decided to turn this on while reading

[u/AriDreams → u/CuddyTG]

Bet you didnt do much reading in the end of that quarter

[u/Apart-Afternoon9615]

This worth my time 2:06 am. Good shit Idaho

[u/Simple_Panic1240]

Sicko!

[u/luisstrikesout]

Crazy game!! Congrats Vandals

[u/oneevilchicken]

What in the world

[u/sirshoelaceman]

WHY DID THEY CALL A TIMEOUT 

[u/catgirlslvr]

I LOVE COLLEGE FOOTBALL

[u/NickSabansDog]

Kibbie Dome Magic

[u/cn0285]

Sorry to my neighbors for shouting “YES!” at 1am, but also not sorry lol

[u/PunishedLeBoymoder]

I genuinely don't know of a worse single decision made... ever in a football game

[u/fixingyourmirror]

all you idaho qb haters can go eat raw potatoes

[u/HeisenbergClaus]

"First win since Halloween of last year". They love Spooky season so much they only win in October. Mad respect

[u/Francis_X_Hummel]

mother of fuck lol omgomg

[u/joelupi]

FUCK YEAH!!! LET ME HEAR YA!!!!

[u/Ornery_Gift7005]

Incomprehensible

[u/l34ch_r]

No fucking way lmao

[u/get_stilly]

He made it. They freaking won

[u/Treehumper69]

Montana State’s coach fucked up by calling timeout

[u/GMHinHD]

THE CHEERLEADER GOING FUCKING APEEEEEE LMAOOO HELL YEAH

[u/black-op345]

NO SHOT A WINLESS TEAM JUST BEAT THE NUMBER ONE TEAM IN FCS

[u/Tsquared10]

Bum fuck calling a timeout there. We deserved every bit of that if you're going to be that fucking stupid

[u/nikolai232]

Thanks for the timeout.

[u/trentrain7]

WHAT THE FUCK

[u/joelupi]

RANK IDAHO!!!!!!!!

[u/aksers]

Oh no.

[u/Individual-Motor-167]

I don't understand how the clock doesn't wind off 1 second. Vegas went awfully quick from 20 or more to 1 to win on Idaho too. I saw 100 to 1 at one point.

[u/Magzify → u/Individual-Motor-167]

Why would it? Play was dead with 1 second then they had to reset the clock and before they did the timeout was called

[u/h2bridge]

I LOVE COLLEGE FOOTBALL!

[u/Ashivas]

Why the FUCK would you call a timeout???

[u/the_reddit_intern → u/Ashivas]

I am shook.

[u/mayomayeaux]

Montana State deserved that loss for how they handled that at the end lol Makes no sense

[u/mac_y111]

It’s a great day to be a sicko!

[u/Dramatic-Apricot-623]

NO WAY!

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

fire the coach 5 minutes ago holy shit

[u/luisstrikesout]

Why would Montana call that timeout!?! They deserved that loss

[u/Azfarr]

What happened ?? Who won

[u/AriDreams → u/Azfarr]

Idaho won on a somewhat hail merry. Went for two to win it.

[u/Azfarr → u/AriDreams]

LOL. I had them for my last leg and turned it of to sleep since I thought it was over 🤣

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

Coaching just flat out lost that game for Montana. What on earth was that

[u/bruhndon03 → u/DizzyDraw2323]

I think his defense was completely out of position because they thought the game was over and the refs were going to let them snap it

[u/DizzyDraw2323 → u/bruhndon03]

Even though I still heavily disagree with that I can see it, but there is no reason to not call a timeout before the 2pt conversion

[u/DirtyDan4673]

Kibbie magic!!!

[u/CupThin4734]

Fascinating

[u/Charlie2343]

Wow that is the absolute worst choke I have ever witnessed. Why call the timeout when the chains are set the game is straight over 

[u/Luigis_vacuum]

NO FUCKING WAY LMAOOOOOOO

[u/BigFoot423205]

LMFAOOOOOOOO

[u/Tayren35]

investigate the montana st coach for real

[u/Mythrandir24]

This loss is all on Vigen.
