College Football 2025 Season Preview + Predictions for Week 0 and 1
After a long hiatus, I’m back for the upcoming season. The long-awaited ‘hammer’ on Michigan has struck. While the ruling and rationale are understandable, so is the uproar. My thought is this: the punishments are fair. You might ask, “Why are they fair?” You might know what’s coming, but you still have to stop it.…

My thoughts on the Transfer Portal (College Football) + 12-team Playoff System
There have been numerous announcements of the transfer portal in college football since the regular season ended, and even with them happening prior to the early signing day period in December, I don’t think it’s good for the sport to have players bail on their teams before the season is over, and the same is…

Predictions for the 2024 College Football Bowl Season + Army-Navy
I went 5 for 6 in Saturday’s conference title games last week, bringing my record this season to 624-231 (.730). Bowl Season starts on Saturday, the same day as the Army-Navy game, and what had an enormous amount of hype has decreased since Navy lost three straight games earlier in the year after a 7-0…

Initial Reactions to Week 14 of the 2024 College Football Season
The. Chaos. Is. REAL! Two teams in the top 10 have already lost, with Ohio State and Miami being the victims. Based on the results though, I believe the following playoff teams have been secured: Oregon (seed between 1 and 8), Penn State (seed between 1 and 8), Ohio State (seed between 5 and 8),…

Reactions to Week 11 + Predictions for Week 12 of the 2024 College Football Season
The U is not back yet. But Indiana is here to stay? Let’s see in two weeks when Indiana visits Ohio State. I’m sure College Gameday and Big Noon Kickoff will be there for that game. BYU survived, and Georgia looked lost all day in Oxford. Alabama rose above Death Valley. The Big Ten has…

Reactions from Week 7 + Predictions for Week 8 of the 2024 College Football Season
I had referred to certain games that had a case for game of the year, and Ohio State and Oregon added to that list. Penn State and USC had another epic as well. Alabama survived a scare this time after not doing so last week, and Vanderbilt followed up that big win over Alabama with…

Reactions from Week 6 + Predictions for Week 7 of the 2024 College Football Season
We have a new no.1 for the third time as Texas regains the top spot from yet another fellow SEC team. Georgia opened the season as the no.1 team and then it was Texas before Alabama beat Georgia. I still cannot believe what went down in Nashville last week with Vanderbilt taking down Alabama. What…

Reactions from Week 5 + Predictions for Week 6 of the 2024 College Football Season
There’s a reason College Gameday goes to the game it goes to each week. Through the first six episodes of Gameday, the game for which the program went to was decided by one possession in four of the six games, with Texas and Tennessee being the two teams that won by more than one score…

Reactions from Week 4 + Predictions for Week 5 of the 2024 College Football Season + Bonus take on Postseason Awards
No Quinn? No Problem. Texas soared with Arch at the helm in Quinn Ewers’ absence, and Michigan and USC made an early case for game of the year. 32 yards passing? no problem. Let Kalel Mullings eat. Welcome to the Big Ten, USC, and welcome to the SEC, Oklahoma. Josh Heupel emerged victorious in his…

Reactions from Week 3 + Predictions for Week 4 of the 2024 College Football Season
Boy was this a wild one. #1 Georgia narrowly escapes. Florida State loses again. Texas is back to number 1 this upcoming week. Indiana looks like world beaters so far. LSU escapes Williams-Brice by a mere few inches. Wow. I should have perhaps known better than to pick Florida State because I did say that…
