CNN has reported on a lot of things since 1980. But when it comes to their college football coverage, they've sometimes got stuff very wrong. And there was no more infamous example of that than what happened in 1985, when they reported that West Virginia would be playing in the Aloha Bowl... only for that to be a complete lie and fake story. This is the story behind, quite easily, the worst moment in CNN history when it comes to their coverage of college football
VIDEOS MENTIONED:

EDIT: At one point in the video (around the 7:05 mark), I accidentally said Alamo Bowl instead of Aloha Bowl, and was unable to catch it in the edit. Apologies for that
