33 Things About Tim Riggins That Make Every College Girl Want To Live In 'Texas Forever'

NBC

Friday Night Lights is the ultimate Texas high school football show.

You can't help but resonate with the small town of Dillion the deeper you get into the seasons. One of the most recognizable characters that you go from hating to love is none other than Tim Riggins. While he might be tough on the outside, Tim Riggins is a big softie at heart.

What's not to love?

His friendship/friends with benefits relationship with Tyra

They could just kick back and hangout with each other but they also seemed to hookup most of the time whenever one of them was back in town. Oh well.

When we realized he was the "bad boy" of the show

Every show has one, and here ladies and gentleman, it's Tim Riggins.

His love for football

The fullback of our dreams.

His Texas twang

I was baffled when I found out he's actually Canadian. Could've fooled me.

When he took Matt shooting when he was down

...because that's the best way to get over a breakup, right?

When he gave Jason the game winning football

When he went to Mexico with Jason

...and stopped him from doing a risky operation that could have killed him.

How he always protected his teammates, on and off the field

When he protected Julie and took her home after she drank too much at a party

...And then didn't say anything when Coach Taylor thought he was taking advantage of Julie when he was trying to get her into her bed

When he protected Julie during a tornado

How he never gave up on Lyla

Every single time he smiled

When he took Becky pageant dress shopping because her mom bailed

When we heard how Coach Taylor and Buddy spoke about him

How close he got to Jackie's son, Bo

When he found out those closest to him made him a highlight reel

Every time he kissed Lyla

When he day drank

Something about Tim not really having his life together just makes you like him more.

When he drove around in his truck

When he smirked

When he quizzed the team on football plays

When he volunteer coached the East Dillion Lions with Coach Taylor

When he took the blame and went to prison so Billy could be a present father

When he wouldn't let Lyla give up on going to Vanderbilt just to stay in Texas with him

When he went to New York with Jason because he wanted to land a sport agent job

When he helped Tami Taylor with things around the house when he was staying at the Taylor's

How excited he was when he got into college

His undeniable love for Jason

When he apologized to the entire team

When he was always there for Becky

Remember when Becky got pregnant and went to Tim?

Every time he chanted "Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose"

"Texas Forever"

Tim Riggins has a place in all our hearts and y'all know it.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.
