1. Lou Holtz gibberish / “Lifestyle” Vine
This creative masterpiece has been “looped” over 15 million times. Yes, we’re starting off with the No. 1 Vine of all time, and it’s a mix of Lou Holtz gibberish and hip hop music. No artisitic work has ever embodied what the internet means to us today like this Vine. Enjoy and be sure to watch a few hundred times or so.

2. Jameis Winston RKO
It was a pivotal moment of the first college football playoff where Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston dropped back against Oregon, and WHOA, OUT OF NOWHERE HE WAS RKO’D! And the referee! Wow. Tough to bounce back from that one. Oregon won the game and moved on to the championship game.

3. Will Muschamp’s “Do your job”
This goes back to Will Muschamp as Texas defensive coordinator. Want to see him at his most intense best? This classic, punching the white board scene is a thing of beauty.

10. Girl cries, Frank Beamer stares into oblivion
Former Virginia Tech head coach Frank Beamer either made this girl cry, or he’s furious that he’s sitting next to a crying girl, or he’s simply staring into oblivion and is unaware of the girl. Either way, this Vine is hilarious.
