- Matt Mooney survived injuries and transfers to wind up blessed with the national-champion runners-up of 2019.
- QB Cody Hodges didn't see Joel Filani catch the TD pass with 12 seconds left - but he knew Tech had won.
- Sally Kipyego, the greatest cross-country runner in college history, once ran a race to save a life - and lost.
