Predictions for Week 13 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 12
Down to the last week of the regular season! Week 12 record: 52-16 (.765)Record after Week 12: 580-199 (.744) While I am performing above the clip of the guest pickers on ESPN College GameDay in all (85-48; .639), I will later do a comparison of how I fared against the guest pickers based on the…

Predictions for Week 12 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 11
The first stage of the post-suspension sign stealing saga is in the books. Michigan 1, NCAA/Big Ten 0. The SEC Championship game is set, after Georgia took down Ole Miss, Alabama took down Kentucky, and Missouri dismantled Tennessee. Missouri’s win mathematically eliminated Tennessee as well as themselves unfortunately, because Georgia only has one conference game…

Predictions for Week 11 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 10
Happy Veterans Day to those who have served the United States of America, and to the Veterans who serve / have served in the military to defend their countries. Maryland continues to slide after a torrid start, and there was surprisingly no change among the top 8 teams in the CFP rankings and their order.…

CFP Chaos
Depending on who you root for, or if you want the playoff discussions to be simple, you’ll hope for some of the teams in division championship contention to knock each other out, or someone to fall apart at the wrong time. This is a pivotal week because a top-10 team has lost in the debut-week…

Predictions for Week 10 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 9
It truly indeed was a test for Oklahoma, and they failed. They suffered a loss sooner than expected (pun intended) and their initial CFP ranking will suffer as a result too. I continue to underestimate Georgia, and I clearly underestimated Oregon this week too. USC finally got back into the win column even though their…

Predictions for Week 9 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 8
The top 10 matchup between Ohio State and Penn State was a little bit of a dud, as I thought the offenses would score more. But Ohio State held its ground to stay in contention in the Big Ten East. Penn State isn’t out of it though, but they need a lot of help from…

Predictions for Week 7 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 6
Just about every team in the FBS is halfway through their regular season, and boy was this a tough week for me too picking the games. As the saying goes, “That’s a bold strategy, cotton.” Picking the no.1 team to lose at home? perhaps too far. I at least had more backing and reason on…

Predictions for Week 6 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 5
We are nearly halfway through the 2023 College Football regular season. At least Notre Dame is, having played 6 games and recording a 5-1 start, and by a mere few inches they could have been 6-0 instead. Sadly for Iowa, Cade McNamara is done for the year with a torn ACL and Duke’s Riley Leonard…

Predictions for Week 5 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 4
It’s the last week of September this week, and through week 4, we’ve seen some wild things. Virtually nobody thought Alabama would be 3-1, and subsequently, virtually nobody thought Texas would be ranked in the top 5 at this point in the season. Colorado isn’t the same without Travis Hunter. Northwestern has the same record…

Predictions for Week 4 of the 2023 College Football Season + Misses from Week 3
Week 3 is in the books, and we saw some of everything. From a 61-yard winning field goal by Missouri’s Harrison Mevis to rain delays to Alabama dropping out of the top 10, we’ve seen almost everything we couldn’t expect to have happened already in a matter of weeks. Week 4 is when most teams…
