Cherish each and every college football weekend.
COMPARE: Any College Player | Any College Team
Cherish every college football highlight, video, tweet and randomness because we're already nearing the halfway point, which will soon reach the three-quarters point and, sadly, the end. While it's easy to keep looking ahead at the next week, next top-10 game and next playoff rankings, fans must cherish every moment of the depressingly short season.

Sooners Shocked
Iowa State entered Saturday's game at Oklahoma with only five all-time wins in the series (5-74-2) and only one since 1961 (none since 1990). The 31-point underdogs shocked the Sooners on Allen Lazard's late touchdown catch.

Flop!
We can all be thankful that John O'Korn's flop didn't have a huge impact on the Michigan–Michigan State game, because this is embarrassing for football.

Chaos in Buffalo
The sister of a Western Michigan player ran on the field to celebrating following a late touchdown, but the Broncos needed SEVEN OVERTIMES to beat Buffalo.

Clean Hit
The NCAA's targeting rules are intended to protect players. We all get that. We also get that football is a violent sport, which produces legal, violent hits. This is not targeting:

FSU Troubles
As noted by USA Today's Dan Wolken, following Florida State's loss to Miami, the Seminoles are just 13-9 against FBS opponents in their last 22 games.
Here’s a Misery Index stat: Since starting 6-0 in 2015, Florida State is just 13-9 against FBS opponents.

Instant Classic
Air Force vs. Navy was largely overlooked on Saturday but it was a beauty. Just watch the highlights and enjoy.

Fighting Leaches!
Washington State won again, clearly because Mike Leach is a boss who casually eats bananas during his pregame referee chat.

Oh My
Michigan receiver Eddie McDoom dropped a key pass in the final seconds of their loss to Michigan State, which prompted a Spartans' defender to play the savage card.

Well, It's True
Washington hasn't been remotely tested this season, thanks to an easy start to their conference schedule, which followed a cupcake non-conference slate.

Safe Places are Important
When Wisconsin wasn't busy running over, around and through Nebraska's defense, this referee was making an amazing announcement.
Here's a new one:
