The time has come again. The last touchdown. The last field goal. The last interception. The end of another college football season, which may feel like the end of the world to some.
The 2016 season brought many shocking moments to college football fans. Alabama had a starting freshman quarterback. LSU hiring new head coach Ed Orgeron. Verne Lundquist announcing for his last SEC game. Finally, the most shocking was the National Title rematch between the Clemson Tigers and the Crimson Tide.
The final game of this college football season was surely one to remember. A tough battle between the Crimson Tide and the Tigers. An unpredictable fourth quarter was jaw dropping for both teams. Alabama fell just short of the national title, turning the tables, making Clemson the National Championship winner of 2016.
To the fans: Thank you for supporting your team through the ups and downs. To the coaches: Thank you for building boys into men and preparing them for tough games. Most importantly, to the players: Thank you for putting your hearts into the game and pushing through the hard times for your fans. You all are the reason college football is so special, and you are all truly appreciated.
With nothing to do on Saturdays anymore, us college football fans can have a little bit of free time. We will miss the rivalries, the crazy fans, the tailgating, and of course the attractive players. We will miss the Crimson Tide, the Volunteers, the Gamecocks and maybe even the Tigers. We will miss you college football. Farwell, until next season.
