Updated CFP Field Prediction
On College Gameday and during the SEC Championship game, the panel along with Chris Fowler alluded to the fact that with BYU being the only ranked team between Notre Dame and Miami (FL), the head-to-head would become a factor, and with BYU losing today, it definitely does. But with Alabama losing too, it’s possible that…

Playoff Discussion + Predictions for Conference Championship Weekend
I missed the chance to pick tonight’s games so I will pick tomorrow’s games only. It was a rough week for me last week since I missed on several high-profile games. But let’s see how I do this week. While I’m watching the score up dates on tonight’s games, Jake Retzlaff might be writing a…

Takeaways from Week 9 + Predictions for Week 10 of the 2025 College Football Season
Nothing really shocked me this week, but there were some epic games, headlined by the SEC. Two corrections: Brian Kelly was fired. And I forgot that the past week was week 9, not week 8. It’s amazing how wild the buyouts are for Kelly and James Franklin… many people never make that much money in…

Takeaways from Week 3 of the 2025 College Football Season + Predictions for Week 4
“College football has never been better. Interest has never been higher.” – Joel Klatt I hope this past week really puts that into perspective, and at least affirms such words.

Takeaways from Week 2 of the 2025 College Football Season + Predictions for Week 3
I didn’t get to make a full set of picks for week 2, but of the picks I made, I was way wrong about several teams, especially Arizona State. Clemson looks to be overrated even though they found a way to win. Alabama bounced back nicely along with Texas, and Ohio State and Tennessee were…

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.…

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…
