Regardless of the time of year, Saturdays are the best days. However, some Saturdays are better than others.
Take fall for example. Those who attend the church of college football know that although a Saturday in the spring may be great, those in the fall are all that much better.
Then annually you have that one special Saturday where things are only that much more special.
That much crazier.
That much more insane.
That perfect.
That’s what Saturday, Oct. 15, 2022, was in the world of college football. Tennessee’s thrilling, 52-49, victory over Alabama was as crazy as the sport gets, but it was just one of several insane games affecting the College Football Playoff.
