Three Jeopardy contestants, zero clue about college football

Sorry Michigan and Texas, three geniuses have no idea who you are.

The best, the brightest, the Jeopardians*. They’re good at a lot of things. They can tell you the capital of Chad without needing an atlas or Where in the world in Carmen Sandiego?, they know the periodic table like I know how to make a grilled cheese sandwich and can tell you which Duke was responsible for the fabled “Westminster grain taxes of 1812”**.

That said, they know NOTHING about college football, which we’ve already established.

Not knowing Mack Brown was Texas' coach, that's bad. Having NO CLUE what Michigan's helmets look like... that's worse.

Stick to knowing the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow, Jeopardians.

*This is not a word

**This is not a thing
