SOMEBODY HOOK FOOTBALL INTO MY VEINS NOW:
(Watch this with sound on)
I am fired up. We are 43 days until college football (more like 48, if you exclude the 4 G5 games on 8/25) and 56 days until the NFL.
The two absolute animals in the video seem are linemen from West Virginia. The guy with a head made out of titanium is offensive guard Chase Berndt:

When I first saw this video, I thought I was looking at the reincarnation of Owen Schmitt, one of the last true old-school football players:

I think this is the only time he cried, ever. Sometimes when I’m asked why I love college football so much, I reference this video:
Owen Schmitt, Steve Slaton, and Pat White. Never forget the greatest NCAAF video game team of all time:
