The world with no sports pretty much sucks. Much like the last couple of years of Florida State football.

To ease the pain of both, I've been watching an old (2010s) Florida State football game every night on YouTube.

I got this idea from an article from The Athletic, but what game is a "must watch" for you? If you can find it on youtube or anything else, post the link here for others to watch.

Last night was the 2013 Florida State vs. Idaho game.

It was never close, but FSU covered a -56 point spread against an (at the time) FBS team.

Final score 80-14

Tonight was the 2016 Orange Bowl. While I was still new on tHoop, this game was a lot of fun with the Michigan fans that were/still are here on the board. Peppers went down with an "injury" right before the game and Butt left early. It's been a lot of fun watching, even though I know the result

Jimmy Jam called 2 time outs while FSU was kneeing it out. If I was a quarterback in that situation, I would absolutely torpedo one directly at the opposing head coach as time expired to give them a big fuck you

So many from which to choose...

10/16,1982: A bright spot in a mediocre season, the host Volunteers end Alabama's 11 game streak in the series, defeating the Crimson Tide 35-28. It would be Bear Bryant's final season.

1/1/1986: The #2 ranked Miami Hurricanes complained loudly of their Sugar Bowl pairing with Tennessee. There was a cacophony of trash talk from Miami players, coaches, and fans. Thrilled to be returning to the Sugar Bowl, Vols fans showed up big, outnumbering Miami fans by a ratio of 2-1. Led by highly touted pro prospect, Vinny Testeverde, Miami scored first on a reception by Michael Irvin. That would be Miami's only score. In the second half, led by senior back-up QB and perennial bench-warmer, Daryl Dickey, Tennessee's offense would compile 35 unanswered points. The Vols defense dominated Miami, sacking and intercepting Testeverde six times in the process. Daryl Dickey would be declared Sugar Bowl MVP.

10/13/1990: In his inaugural year as HC at his alma mater, Steve Spurrier brings his nationally ranked, 5-0 Florida Gators to Neyland Stadium. Before 96,874 fans, the host Tennessee Volunteers hand their guests a psychologically scarring defeat, 45-3.

1/1/1996: In the Florida Citrus Bowl, UT would defeat tOSU, 20-14. Their only meeting on the gridiron.

1/4/1999: Undefeated SEC Champs, the Tennessee Volunteers won the first ever BCS Championship, beating FSU, 23-16.

10/23/1999: For decades, Tennessee had played Alabama in Knoxville and Birmingham. The Vols had last played at Tuscaloosa in 1930. This Saturday, they whipped the Tide 21-7 in front of the crimson-clad hometown crowd at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

Georgia over Oklahoma in the Rose Bowl. Epic game that we came out on top.

I think my favorite Tennessee game was about a year before that.
Somewhere down in Florida if I remember correctly.

I dreaded clicking on this thinking it would be full of OD's shenanigans.

There are a lot to choose from.

The 24 point come back vs. ND in 1974 (The Anthony Davis Game).

The one against UCLA where OJ broke off a 64 yard game winning TD run.

The NC vs. Texas. Unbelievably great game even if we lost.

But I'd have to go with The Bush Push game vs. ND.

A friend of mine is a huge ND fan and his wife bought him tickets for that game, so he was in Notre Dame stadium for the first time in his life.

We were texting during the game and I had typed in "Congratulations" text all set to send when Leinart hit that 4th and 9 pass to Jarrett.

Well if we’re on the subject if FSU football then yes, 1993 ND vs FSU game of the century is a must watch.

It’s hard to find other ND games that season except for the BC game, no thanks and the Cotton Bowl that year.

I watched the Navy game from that year and Navy actually made a game of it for a half.

1988 Catholics vs. Convicts is like Shawshank Redemption, you find yourself sitting down to watch it every time it’s on.

All I remember about that game was how long it was. And everyone in the house stayed as far away from me as possible. They were all upstairs and my wife kept yelling at me for either screaming too loudly in anger or too loudly for joy.
