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 2024 College Football’s Conference Championship games
I did not put picks in on time yesterday, so I will not retroactively claim that I picked the winners. Jacksonville State, Army, and Boise State clinched conference championships yesterday. How about Army, even though they are on the outside looking in, with an 11-1 season? They still have the Army-Navy game, but they could…

Reactions from Week 12 + Predictions for Week 13 of the 2024 College Football Season
While it was expected to see most of the highly ranked teams take care of business, it was anything but a regular day at the office. Top-ranked Oregon barely quacked by Wisconsin and unfortunately it cost Phil Longo his job. But the team has played incredibly hard and showed that even the top ranked team…

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…
