There are two events that are clear in my memory, but cannot substantiate.
I distinctly remember Jim Lampley announcing the results of an OU/CU game in which neither team completed a pass. OU didn't try, and CU failed on all six attempts. Jim Lampley said in conclusion "in what must have been the shortest game in colllege football history."
I also remember a game in which OSU (the Pokes) were playing another team and were ahead by less than a field goal. The other team was driving and threw a pass, which was intercepted. Instead of falling down on the ball, the CB tried to run it back and fumbled, giving the other team the ball. They promptly kicked a FG for the win.
I thought that the Lampley game was around 1984 or so. The OSU game was 1976.
Did these happen? Or did I somehow dream them up?
