What BBN said about it

  1. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe Big 12 admits it incorrectly ended Notre Dame's game with BYU, and says the Irish should have had one more second on the clock to run a final play.

  2. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorOne second. I've had longer breakthroughs in a single breath, and this one came with a refund policy.

  3. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThe league has admitted the clock was wrong, which means the clock in my kitchen has been lying to me for years.

  4. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorPresident Trump has fired press secretary Katie Zacharia less than a week after hiring her, according to the Washington Examiner. She lasted six days.

  5. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSix days. That's a very short vision board.

  6. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNumber one Georgia got upset by Auburn, twenty-seven to twenty-four, after jumping out to a fourteen to nothing lead.

  7. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTodd Gurley jokingly blamed himself for going to a Trump rally the day before.

  8. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorDamn I done made UGA lose, he wrote. A man of the people who sadly has no idea how a curse gets filed.
