G’s Exploration and Expectation or Com’n It’s Thanksgiving

Howdy oh great and wonderful fans. On the plus side, it’s Thanksgiving week – the time for starting the end of year gorging and feasting. On the even plusser (yes, I just made up that word) side, it’s rivalry week. FINALLY!! Great news for every team except for those whose rival had the kind of …

G’s Explanation for Week 14 or how many stats can we put in one blog?

I hope all of you great fans enjoyed your Sunday. I have to say mine has been very busy, but it is the season for that I guess. I mean, Rivalry Week is almost here!!!! Short of the bowl games, I think the final week of the regular season is the most exciting. I can’t …

G’s Week 13 Evaluation or The End is Nigh

Good morning Football Fans!! This is a special early edition of the GCR published not just out of pure excitement (I really do not like mornings) but also out of necessity. I’ll be out of pocket from about 10 minutes from now until the evening (just in time for some analytics), so this post is …

G’s Expectation for Week 13 or I hope we can find something to watch

Hello college football fans! Welcome to the penultimate regular season week for FBS and the final week for FCS. Tuesday I talked about the FCS playoff situation in G’s Exploration. If you haven’t read it, please do and let me know what you think. It’s that time of year where a lot of games are …

G’s Exploration or How About the Other Playoffs?

Happy MAC Nation Tuesday, everyone!! I’m watching Eastern Michigan (108/96) against Northern Illinois (82/78). It’s 14-7 Eagles right now with less than a minute in the half, but the GCR predicts the Huskies will come back and win (63.1%). Ohio (72/68) is at Bowling Green (167/118) and should get the road win (64.5%). They are …

Georgia (6) gave Auburn (9) its 3rd top 10 loss of the year (the most difficult schedule in the country). Iowa (13) tolled midnight for Minnesota (15) – not what the GCR predicted, but my friend …

G’s Expectation for Week 12 or Happy 50th

I started this blog on August 30 with a Welcome to the GCR post. Now 77 days later, it’s time for post number 50. I’m pretty sure I didn’t intend to post this often – in the previous email version of this to 30ish people I had one post per week. I think it’s fallen …

G’s Exploration or It’s Getting Cold Out There

Happy Tuesday everyone! So I took a break earlier today (yes, I have a day job and there’s a lot going on right now) to watch a little of the Eastern Michigan (117)/Akron (254) and the Western Michigan (136)/Ohio (77) games. Both are being played in Ohio and this arctic snap was causing some snow …

G’s Explanation or Just How Good Are the Top Teams, Anyhow?

Happy Sunday evening, CFB fans. Earlier today the GCR came out and had not only a new top 4, but a new #1 for the first time in a long time. For those who are seeing the GCR for the first time, that concept is pretty rare. Ohio State held that spot in a way …
