G’s Expectation for Week 10 or You’re Picking Who?

Hi Sports Fanatics and I do have to apologize a bit for the title. I don’t actually pick any team to win, at least directly. I mean, I did write the formula and all that, but sometimes the GCR surprises even me with its picks. There are a couple this week that go that way. …

Hello oh great and wonderful college football fans. This year there are 39 bowls (40 if you count the championship game) so 78 of the 130 FBS teams (fully 60%) will have an opportunity.

G’s Evaluation for Week 9

The crazy month of October is gone (ok, almost) for college football and what craziness it was. There were upsets galore, many that have or will have an impact on the Playoff.

G’s Evaluation and Explanation or What a(nother) Weekend!? Upset Week Part Deux!

G’s Exploration or Gotta Blame the Weather

Ok, fans, you never blame the weather or the officials, although they both make good conversation fodder. And, no, that will not be the topic of Sunday’s blogs. The reference in the title is a move to Sunday for the North Carolina A&T/Florida A&M game. I know it won’t have a huge impact on the …

Combo G’s Exploration and Expectation or Things (and Games) to Watch

Ok, faithful fans, we have had our annual wacky Saturday and things were shaken up a bit. I know none of us ever expect a bunch of teenagers to do something erratic or unexpected, but sometimes life just throws these surprises at us. The GCR doesn’t think the craziness is over, but I get ahead …
