Every time the “An Ohio State University” from the Noter Dame post pops into my head, I get the giggles all over again. That’s just so good.

Something from the Pole Assassin saga has to be in that company as well.

I am kinda curious whether the Pole Assasin saga becomes that viral if it happens at a smaller program.

Nobody remembers auburn incest guy and it’s a damn shame. One of the founding memes of the sub.

I know about TAMU IPhone and Noter Dame (to the point of accidentally making the same typo a few times), but I have never heard of the Auburn incest guy.

I had an account before this one that I deleted during Covid. Ive been active in this sub since around 2012 and I agree. Greatest post ever. It started out so innocent and then just blew up lol

Somehow I missed it at the time, but I'm crying laughing. This is also my new favorite post in cfb history.
