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.…

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 9 + Predictions for Week 10 of the 2024 College Football Season
Texas survived a scare at Vanderbilt, something Alabama couldn’t do. Ohio State too survived a scare. Michigan retains Paul Bunyan for the third straight year. Sadly another fight broke out at the end of the game. For all the talk about the little brother in the rivalry, Colston Loveland to me was the one who…

Reactions from Week 8 + Predictions for Week 9 of the 2024 College Football Season
Number 1 goes down again, this time with Texas, leaving no undefeated teams left in the SEC. I can’t remember a year that was the case since maybe 2007, when that was chaotic itself for all the upsets starting with no.5 Michigan against Applachian State. Additional chaos ensured when the SEC officiating crew led by…

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…

Instant Reaction from Week 2 + Predictions for Week 3 of the 2024 College Football Season
TEXAS IS BACK, FOLKS! Michigan and Notre Dame are the two top-10 teams that fell on Saturday, and as expected, many think that the playoff hopes are over for Michigan, as well as Notre Dame. I do agree that the path to return to contention is much more difficult (very slim to no margin of…
