CFB Week Seven: Indiana is What We Thought Penn State Was
Some weeks in college football just leave you staring at the wall looking for answers. It’s hard to come up with confident takeaways when it’s clear that only one thing is certain: NOTHING! The gap between the best team and 50th-best team is slimmer than ever. Somehow, none of the results and ALL the results…

CFB Week Six: Preseason Top Two Knocked Out of Playoff Race
College football never disappoints. It just doesn’t. The blog this week practically writes itself. I don’t even know where to start. I’m sitting here in October, not even six weeks after writing my season preview, and three of my four predicted semi-finalists are out. Remember this clown shit? There’s a lot of red ink on…

CFB Week Five: Oregon and Alabama Earn Big Road Wins
It’s not uncommon for widely-hyped college football slates to disappoint. On weekends with several fantastic games in theory, we usually get a couple duds. Not this weekend.

Stillwater Sadness: Oklahoma State Football Fires Mike Gundy
Very few coaches have been more representative of college football this century than Mike Gundy. Between fiery press conferences and unique hairstyles, Gundy built Oklahoma State into a powerhouse.

CFB Week Four: Indiana Cruises and Texas Tech Dominates

CFB Week Three: Say Goodbye to Clemson and Notre Dame
One of the toughest things about college football is that we spend eight months trying to predict which teams will be good and which won’t, all for those guesses to come crashing down a few weeks into the season. For Clemson and Notre Dame, two teams I had in the playoff coming into the season,…

CFB Week Two: Napier and Gundy in Real Jeopardy
As predicted, Week Two of college football did not disappoint despite the relatively lackluster slate. Four ranked teams lost, and quite a few schools categorized themselves as contenders, pretenders, or just flat-out failures. Let’s discuss the state of things after the second week of the season. Florida is not a playoff team I was happy…

CFB Week Two: Bold Predictions for Cy-Hawk, Sooners, and More
Every season, there are weeks in the college football schedule that look a bit lacking for top-end matchups. Week Two is unfortunately one of those slates. However, we’ve learned time and time again that the most surprising results and entertaining moments come when we least expect it. So I’m looking forward to this weekend’s action.…

These 12 Teams Will Make the 2025 College Football Playoff
My favorite time of year is here. College football kicks off this weekend, and as I write this, Boise State just went 24-7 down to South Florida. Safe to say I’m glad I left the Broncos out of my playoff prediction. I’m definitely guilty of procrastinating on this, but this season is really difficult to…
