Does this mean if we become Notre Dame fans that there might be a SLIGHT CHANCE at a free Bon Jovi halftime show? Or would that embarrass Jesse Bongiovi, Bon Jovi's son?? LOLz!

Still, this is awesome! And we're hearing that despite going to a school in Brooklyn, he's been wanting to go to Notre Dame in Indiana for a long time! Here's what Jesse had to say:

Omg! That is just too CUTE!

During a bowl game between South Carolina and Michigan, a ref made a really bad call.

He gave Michigan a first down, even though they were clearly inches short!

Everyone immediately picked up on the error… including 3-year-old Ada Foster.

Ada gave her breakdown of what happened in the cutest way possible, as only a sweet little baybay could!

Check out the video (above) to hear a 3-year-old's take on a pretty awful call!

Before the kickoff of Saturday's game between South Carolina and Georgia, the Faile family was brought onto the field.

They were honored as the Columbia Metropolitan Airport "Military Family of the Game."

While on the field being cheered on by the crowd, they got a big surprise…

Their father/husband Sgt. 1st Class Scott Faile appeared on the stadium's giant video screen and delivered to them a personal message.

The family was so touched they began to cry.

But that wasn't the only surprise.

You're really gonna want to watch what happens when the video ends!

Check out the video (above) and make sure you've got your tissues on standby.

And it's very clear that despite the sex scandal that rocked Penn State University last year, Joe Paterno will be remembered very fondly by those who knew him.

Since his death, shoppers have flocked to the stores on campus to purchase all the JoePa memorabilia they can get their hands on, while another 3,000 fans, alumni and students braved the cold for a candle-light vigil.

It's not just PSU that is mourning the loss of the most winningest coach in Division I college football history either — the entire country is!

Hundreds of figures in the sports world and beyond have made statements regarding the sudden death of a legend. It's pretty incredible how far this college football coach's reach was. Check out who said what below!

Legendary and, as of late, controversial college football coach Joe Paterno passed away on Sunday after complications from lung cancer.

His family will say goodbye one last time during a private funeral on Wednesday, then hold a public memorial service at the Bryce Jordan Center on Penn State University's campus the next day.

Details are still being worked out, but PSU is allowing two tickets per person for the memorial.

We're sure the building will be packed to the walls for the event because Paterno was truly loved by everyone in the Penn State community.

One group who won't be there, however, is the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priest, who issued a statement reading:

Congrats!

Baylor University quarterback Robert Griffin III took college football's top honor this weekend and won the 2011 Heisman Trophy on Saturday.

The QB, who threw for almost 4,000 yards this season, is the 32nd player of that position to be honored with the award since it's inception in 1935.

This year's most outstanding player in college football won after he received 405 first-place votes and 1,687 total points, compared to 1,407 points garnered by runner-up Andrew Luck, a quarterback for Stanford.

Griffin is the FIRST
