    Totally bullsh-t trivia question!

    In 1984, in what did a Division 1-A player set a record by achieving a number of 29 in one game?

    Touchdown Receptions
    Passing Yards
    Points Per Game
    Field Goals

    Correct answer was Field Goals. HUH?! He kicked 29 field goals in a game?! I'm sorry but if it's just that he achieved 29 field goals in the season, you can't phrase it by saying IN ONE GAME????

    What the f--k, SBR, I get screwed out of enough points in the casino, you could at least fight fair in trivia!!
    Points Awarded:

    SBR Lou gave Capybara 50 SBR Point(s) for this post.

    You're right. It looks like Frank Selvy holds the NCAA basketball record for field goals in a game with 41 in 1954 when he scored 100 points.

    Yup. SBR, can I get 50 points please for this transgression on your part???? Seriously! He did not have 29 field goals in one game.

    And don't say, well, he broke the record in one game, because you cannot possibly break a record over MORE THAN ONE GAME!

    for future reference guys, i had this question before.

    when they say div 1-a, its about college FOOTBALL only.

    so considering the question says "one game" you are owed the points or a redo

    I honestly think it's hard to come up with these questions than to answer them.

    After question 1 it just becomes impossible.

    Yeah, I mean I know it's not like we are paying for the trivia or something, but it's a "service" they offer us, so there's got to be some integrity there.

    I had this last week and got it wrong. I didn't ask for a redo, but thought the answer was crazy (as well as all the choices)

    If you go into live chat during the day they'll most likely reset it for you
