My Autobiography It was a very chilly and rainy Saturday morning when I had awoken from a deep, dark sleep. When I woke up, there was automatic electricity pumping through my veins. A steady drumroll was playing in my head and I knew that today was the day. It was the day for the #12 Clemson Tigers to play the #6 Notre Dame Fighting Irish. It was the College GameDay feature game of the week, and my dad I were going. He had told me that he had gotten tickets, and that we could go to the big game. It was a very rainy day, during the hurricane that we got here down South a few months ago. We met up with my uncle in Greenville and we went down to Clemson with him, and a few of his friends. The drive down there was very wet and rainy but we managed to reach Clemson in plenty of time to get ready for the big …show more content…
Deshaun Watson to Jordan Leggett for 6 and the Tigers strike first to take the lead. Then, after a 3 and out by the Clemson defense, BOOM! Deshaun Watson to Artavis Scott for 6! Clemson was now up 14-0 at this point, in the second quarter. Notre Dame was able to get a field goal right before the half to make the score, 14-3 Clemson at halftime. The rain was coming down at a steady pace while Notre Dame’s heart was slowly being ripped apart. Then all of a sudden, BANG! Deshaun Watson totes the rock for another Clemson touchdown! This made it 21-3 Clemson in the third quarter, and the game seemingly seemed over. But wait…… the Fighting Irish came back with a vengeance. Notre Dame slowly but surely clawed back in the game and at the blink of an eye, the game came down to a 2-point conversion. It was 24-22 Clemson and overtime was decided between 2 and a half yards. The Irish ran a QB draw with Kizer and BOOM! He was stonewalled by Ben Boulware and the rest of the Clemson defense! Clemson would hang on and defeat the Irish, 24-22, in thrilling fashion! All hail the Clemson Tigers! BYOG! ALL
The stage was set, an all-out brawl between Notre Dame and Boston College at a frigid eleven degrees. The contest started with a swift Touchdown after a 63 yard drive dominated by passing. Flutie executed what seemed as a perfect drive except for the PAT. Boston’s kicker slipped on the frozen turf and the kick was blocked. ND quickly responded with their own TD and the games’ only completed PAT. After this point it became worse and worse for the BC Eagles. Most of their problems were special teams related. By the half BC was down 19 to 6.
Belmont's offense was back at work at the 3:37 mark of the quarter with Young running for eighteen-yards. Young would be sacked on the drive by #17(not on either roster I have)for a short loss at the 1:36 mark of the quarter. The drive ended on a 39-yard pass from Young to a wide-opened Ja'don Rucker-furlow with :52 showing on the clock. This time it would be Dorrick Conner converting the conversion run to make this a,48-6
It seemed as though hope had been revived in the fourth quarter when an 80-yard run by Baldiviez put some points up on Dana’s end of the board. With 49 seconds remaining, Junior Corey Cisowski found Senior Ryder Lynch who finished off the game with a 6-yard touchdown.
It was the biggest game of the year, what every person wants to win, the championship. The score is tied 24-24 and the Idaho Hawks had the ball on twenty one yard line. It was third down and five and they ran the ball for only two yards and it was fourth down. They went for the field goal and got it. The score was 27-24 and the Texas Rams were ready to receive to it. On the return they ran for twenty yards. With only five seconds left the quarterback, John Halen, threw the ball to James Morgan. Morgan outran the cornerback and with no time left Morgan at the five yard line dropped the ball. The Hawks won, they were the champions.
Kevin is having a conversation with his brother Tyler about college football while driving home from school. Both are in their Senior year playing for the USF Knights football team. But their friend Josh is really struggling.
Zban would throw a nice tight pass to Mikal Dawson, who sprinted to a 31-yard gain, with 4:10 left in the half. Jadon Hayes electrified the visiting crowd with a fast 22-yard gain and then he got them on their feet with a 7-yard scoring run. Isiah Carpenter hit the point after kick and the score was 27-14.
Its 14-0 in the second half carys winning We hand it off to our running back he's running behind me”if I could just get these guys it's a easy touchdown” I thought.

The Tigers were down 24-14 at the end of the 3rd quarter, but the “best was yet to come (Dabo Swinney).” The Tigers scored the first 14 points, before the Crimson Tide went up 28-24 with 2 minutes and 7 seconds left. Although I was nervous, I knew the Tigers would be able to pull through. One big play of the drive was when Mike Williams made a leaping catch on a 24 yard pass from Deshaun Watson to the Alabama 39 yard line. With 19 seconds left, Jordan Leggett lunged out and made an amazing fingertip catch to the Alabama 9 yard line. After two failed attempts, Deshaun hit Hunter Renfrow for a two yard touchdown with only one second left on the clock. Clemson then recovered an onside kick to seal the victory. While the Clemson fans were elated, the Alabama fans were stunned. Although I had just watched history being made, I though I was dreaming.
It was just another school night in the seventh grade. Our recreational tackle football team had a practice at 730pm until 9. It was a very swampy night and from that I felt myself very sluggish. At the time, I was a backup running back. I was always left on the sidelines facing the chills of the cold wind during games. I typically didn’t get to see much playing time on the field, but that night I got my opportunity. I was receiving kicks during a punting audition and all I was doing was catching the ball and throwing it back, nothing unique. One throw after another, my coach began to praise my arm strength. Seeing me pass the ball was a true eye-opener. That night, I went from a backup running back, to the starting quarterback of my rec
The touchdown temporarily took OU out of their game strategy as they struggled to move the ball on the up coming drive, shedding possession on a failed fourth down conversion. The teams exchanged possessions and OU last but not least marched down the field once again, ending with a touchdown pass to tight end James Hanna. OU went up 21-7.
Deshaun Watson then hit Hunter Renfrow on a deep ball, which scored a 27 yard touchdown, and that made the score 13-17, and the Tigers now had all of the momentum. Michigan responded with a quick drive themself, only to shoot themself in the foot by fumbling the ball away. This game quickly returned to a defensive battle, with both offenses not able to produce any yardage. This continued for the rest of the quarter, until Deshaun Watson threw yet another interception, which set Michigan up at Clemson’s 20 yard line. Clemson had to force a field goal, or their national championship hopes might be
As a member of the lacrosse team, I often hear our coach utter many words about the class of the team. At the start of the season, I disregarded these words as drivel, and continued to act the same way. I had always seen myself as a man with class, and would not have given much thought to any wrongdoings I may have had, and played them off. I have since realized that the way in which you act, holds more prevalence on the way you are portrayed as a person, and impacts the way you will get through life.
1.5 seconds. I had developed an automatic timer in my head, and when it hit 1.5 seconds, I was in trouble. It was physically and mentally agonizing playing quarterback behind an offensive line that was known as being the smallest (and worst) our state division has ever seen. On average, my offensive line would give me 1.5 seconds to throw the ball before getting sacked by opposing defensive linemen. During many plays, I failed to find an open receiver in my allotted time, so I ran for my life - trying to extend the play, avoid getting sacked, and most importantly, avoid getting hurt. I grew up playing wide receiver, but switched positions when our quarterback decided to transfer schools because he couldn’t handle the brutality he faced during
What excites me about attending Loyola Blakefield is there sports programs. Also, the idea of them preparing me for my attendance, at one of my dream colleges. I attended a tryout on Loyola football field and it felt like I belong there, I am a great athlete, leader, a team player who can contribute to the sports program. From first grade to eighth, I have attended public school. The idea of attending a private all boys school is new to me; but I am ready to take on the challenge at Loyola
It was about six o’clock in the evening. The sun is slowly setting behind the bleachers. We walked as a team to the field, it’s the best feeling any athlete could ever experience. The day was going by very slow but when it came to game-time, everything felt fast paced and intense. It was half time and we were up 27-13, and we were sitting in the locker room relaxing before the upcoming second half. I walked out of the locker room to get some fresh air because it gets pretty hot in there with all of the players in there; I hear my dad calling me from the walkway. He had a sort-of panic kind of tone as he was trying to explain this horrible news. He continues to tell me that my grandma was rushed to the hospital due to a heart murmur. She is
