Welcome back, sports fans, as we switch gears from the women to the men. Like we did with the women yesterday, look for a comparison among the 31 conferences. Before we get to the Top 365, let’s look at a game last night that drives home something we’ve been talking about all season. ….. In …
Welcome back, sports fans, to the first basketball conference comparison for the 2025-26 season. We ranked all 363 teams individually yesterday which always brings up the question about conference strength. In football, the Core 4 (ACC, Big 12, Big Ten, SEC, and Notre Dame) is clearly defined just as the Group of 5 (soon to …
Welcome back, sports fans. It’s been an incredibly hectic time at the GCR since around September with football games as well as preparing for and then executing basketball games.

Welcome back, sports fans, as we dive into tonight’s FCS title game. First, we want to apologize for missing the WBB Top 363 as promised. We were delayed due to the chaos at the San Juan, PR airport and did not make it to GCR headquarters (our house) until about 4:30 this morning. Getting everything …
