Sometimes, it's easy to forget college football players are just college kids.

Then they give you a great answer at a press conference, and you remember how honest/funny 20-year-olds can be.

Michigan's Brendan Gibbons kicked a 37-yard field goal to win the Sugar Bowl Tuesday night in overtime. (By the way, this is the same guy who went 1-for-5 as a kicker last season, with his only make a 24-yarder.)

So what was going through Gibbons' mind when he lined up to kick the ball?

"Brunette girls," he said. "Every time we were like struggling in kicking, Coach tells me to think about girls on a beach or brunette girls. So that's what we did. Made the kick."

Make sure you watch the video of his answer. It's hilarious:
