Easier to watch knowing outcome

BA nailed it in Monday podcast - I didn't enjoy watching that game at all. I was in bad humor and was bad company. Nervous for 59.9 minutes. Just watched the highlights and it was so much better knowing the outcome - really allowed me to delight in our team's performance. One of the few games that is WAY better the second time around.

Yeah I was in the upper deck and it was a tough game on my heart. I thought we were taking an L when we were down 14 in the 4th. Not sure I would rank it above the Rose Bowl but it was dang close! Go Dawgs!
I'd put it ahead of the Rose Bowl.
As a mere freshman, you seem well ahead of the game. This avoidance of negative emotions and roller coaster emotions and hope vs despair is at the heart of my philosophy of recording games and only watching if we win - which is usually all of the time. Negative emotions send nasty chemicals through our body - not healthy. The more one wants the Dawgs to win, the greater the frustration/anger/despair one experiences.
To quote some minor philosophers "Gloom, Despair, Agony on Me."
Ummmm, that's a toughie...Hmmmm 🤔
I say its a tie between one and two.... Right!?
Go Dawgs!
It's right for me but I'm biased, I went to that Rose Bowl. I too went to that 2nd & 26 natty game and even tho we were on the heartbroken end of that game, I think it deserves a spot on that list too.
It was a game for the ages no doubt but it doesn't quite surpass the 2017 Rosebowl... you never forget your first!
I have to say, I disagree with this notion of not enjoying the game in the moment. Sure I was in knots the whole time, but it was extremely exciting! I was cheering like crazy with every big play we made... I cant say I didnt enjoy that because I loved it. Of course, I did think it was possible we were going to lose the game and was worried we might with every OSU score, but I also thought that going into the game. I never gave up hope that we would pull it out in the end, and sure enough...
Go Dawgs!
Watching the replay and after the scramble by CJ to the 31, Chris Fowler made the comment, "Never in his life has he ever had a game like this WINNING with his legs and arm". Which I guess is true, but he didn't WIN. It's like Fowler already declared that Ohio St was going to win. Thought it was a rather odd way of putting it.
Big ten announcers….and, yes, I include Fowler….
I find it amusing that the media has been calling this Strouds finest game....yet his team lost and the opposing QB had better stats.
These people are like the "weather forecasters " they make great money being wrong most of the time!!
I always suspected the Dawgs were God's chosen team. Now we know for sure.
-----------------
There were 12 seconds left in the UGA and Ohio State game. The snap was perfect . The ball placement was perfect. God then looked over at Vince Dooley and Lewis Grizzard and said, “ Hold my beer and ‘watch iss’.”
And… they all said Amen and Go Dawgs!
I just re-watched and the Dawgs didn’t play nearly as bad as I thought.
A BS pass interference gave them their second TD.
Their third TD was a gift from Stetson.
After that every scoring drive of OSU had a significant missed holding penalty.
Including CJ’s scramble on the final drive to get in FG range…Jalen Walker gets held two different times on the same play!
Second time around I did not think OSU deserved the win.
The Bullard call was the only one that went our way the whole game and that’s because it wasn’t a dirty hit. That was a horrible pass by CJ, of course your guys gonna get laid out if you throw a pop up.
