Decisions and rationale

LUKE ZIMMERMANN (@lukezim)

It absolutely kills me to bury LSUfreek a second consecutive time. While his effort would be mind bogglingly good by any other standards, cuppycup brought the A++ game yet again. I've got a ton of faith that Freek will bounce back in the finale, but cuppy takes the second one as well.

I haven't been able to even look at Freek's without nearly tearing up about Reveille on a skateboard, so I'm going with that one. Also: THERE ARE NO ACHIEVEMENTS IN NES GAMES YOU JUST PLAYED YOUR BEST UNTIL YOU DIED. /rant

My scorecard is now split, 1-1. If A&M beats LSU this week, cuppycup's GIF will be the definitive account of the game. The density of references (obvious favorite: "1837-present*") and complete narrative would be a lot for any GIF to top, even one featuring such expertly deployed hurrrr faces on our Manziel and Sumlin characters.

Someone told me that Ted Nugent wanted to "get naked and write a symphony" after he watched Deliverance. That's how I felt after watching LSUFreek's masterpiece for 10 minutes on a loop. The source is inspired and Freek has an uncanny ability to match faces to movie clips. In another close call, Round 2 belongs to LSUFreek.

I give this round to CuppyCup. It's hard to top R.C. Slocum mid-hoedown, but if Shutdown Fullback has taught us anything, it's that gyrating 8-bit beefcake is the true avatar of successful college football commentary.
