We knew it'd be low scoring. Ole miss was number 3 in the state for the SEC. And if not SEC, it's not real football

That is by far a better topic than any topic I had to create a speech about.

I could've chosen anything. So why not choose something I love? I had to cut out a bit of info because I went over the 5 minute time limit. I wasn't able to mention top fuel and funny car driver, Scott Kalitta's crash back in 2008. That was the whole reason those cars only run 1000ft. I did mention he died, but not exactly what happened. His engine blew, causing damage to the parachutes, so they didn't deploy. He hit a sand trap at over 125 mph, and eventually ran into the cement wall.

Good lord that's bad. I remember when I was like 8 I got a movie about cars (real cars... Kind of a documentary) and it went over Don Garlits and I remember his crash with his dragster that had the front end completely covered with no wing on it. Guess that cemented the use of a front wing.

Awesome you could have chosen anything though. Way better to choose something you actually care about. Did not know top fuel and funny cars only do 1000 feet though.
