Florida State and Miami's beef got mascots handcuffed and decided national champions
Miami and Florida State both hate the University of Florida above all others. But that didn't stop them from having a beef that was fueled by each of their rapid rises in the college ranks and culminated in a nearly decade-long run where their matchups tied directly to the National Champion year after year. Who's hungry?

THE FUTURE | SCORIGAMI, Part 4 of 4
In this special 88-minute series finale, having already surveyed every NFL score that has ever happened, we now turn our attention to those that have not happened. A couple of them – 41-40 and 40-40 – occurred in the weeks between finishing and releasing this video. Some, such as 36-23, feel like they’re overdue. Others, like 25-18, are tougher scratches to itch, but we might live to see them. Still others, mathematically speaking, would likely take hundreds or thousands of years to occur under present NFL rules. Many more are so astronomically unlikely that they’re unlikely to occur while Earth is still habitable. And that is only the beginning. Special thanks to Secret Base’s Patreon subscribers, who had special early access to this entire series. If you enjoyed this and want to see Jon and Alex talk about the episode, we put up the conversation they had with Seth after the live screening we hosted at SVA Theatre: https://www.patreon.com/posts/scorigami-live-138944270?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link Video by Jon Bois and Alex Rubenstein Subscribe: http://goo.gl/Nbabae Join us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/secretbase Follow us on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/secretbase.bsky.social Follow us on Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@secretbasesbn?

The stat about nothing | SCORIGAMI, Part 3 of 4
In the NFL’s modern era, teams often create scorigami – in other words, a final score that’s never happened before – by way of baffling decision-making or a special teams disaster. They’re accidental and unpredictable. We know this. And yet, they also feel as though they’re guided by an invisible, supernatural hand. In Part 3 of Scorigami, Jon Bois and Alex Rubenstein draw from the expertise of special guest Mina Kimes to investigate this phenomenon. Special thanks to Secret Base’s Patreon members, who had special early access to this episode back in August.

An MVP switching leagues was a big deal

One bad hit created beef between Bear Bryant and Bobby Dodd and altered the SEC forever
Bear Bryant and Bobby Dodd are two of the greatest coaches that college football has ever seen. Importantly for us, these legends also shared admiration for one another, which blossomed into a friendship that endured through many years. "Wait, but this is beef? Why is that lucky?" Well, if you'd let me finish, I'd tell you. Those good vibes lasted until they were forced to share the SEC. As the Alabama vs. Georgia Tech clashes became more contentious, and things took an abrupt turn in the coaches’ personal relationship, which impacted both on and off the field. From the teams ending their annual matchup to Tech leaving the conference to the coaches not speaking for years and years, this beef left quite a mark.

The dark lore of the two-point conversion | SCORIGAMI, Part 2 of 4
The AFL, founded in 1960, was special for many reasons. One was its willingness to do what the NFL wouldn’t and adopt the two-point conversion, which allowed pro teams to score in chunks of eight for the first time. This, of course, changed the mathematics of scorigami forever. So where did the AFL come from? Well, uh … how much do you know about 1930s Texas oil prospecting?

The Cavaliers breaking up their title-winning core was a big deal
Babe wake up, the Cavs traded Kyrie. Just a few months after the Celtics and Cavaliers vied for a trip to the 2017 finals, they swapped point guards, Kyrie Irving for Isaiah Thomas. Why would the Cavs want to make a huge change just about a year removed from a title? Well, Kyrie had said he was unhappy in LeBron's shadow and wanted a trade. Cleveland then had to decide wtf they were gonna do. They weighed the options and concluded a 5'9" Boston hero with hip issues was their best bet. How'd they figure?
