Welcome back, oh great and wonderful college football fans. It was rivalry week: a week full of animosity and downright hatred at times resulting in more in-game fighting, more unsportsmanlike penalties, more post-game flag-induced melees at mid-field, and more excuses from the losers. These games are so important that after losing his 4th straight to …
Welcome back, a day late, for this week’s games to watch and predictions. My flight was delayed last night and attempts to use the free airport internet proved fruitless (you can do better Dulles), so I’m a day later than usual. There were 2 games last night from the MAC conference. With the records and …
Welcome back to a special edition of G’s Explanation. Each year I like to take some time to understand the postseason picture. The focus has been on the 12-team playoff or the 4-team playoff or the BCS Championship for a couple of decades but there have only been a precious few who have ever had …
And then there were 2. Oregon (11-0/1) who was idle this weekend and Montana St (12-0/92) who won their rivalry game against Montana (8-4/171) are the only undefeated teams remaining. Army (9-1/16) and Indiana (10-1/5) both lost. This weekend was the epitome of this season. Let’s get rid of divisions (except for the Sun Belt …
Welcome to a new week in college football. First, it is Rivalry Week for the FCS. Most teams will play their last regular season games (5 exceptions in the SWAC who play next week). Then that same SWAC will have a championship game, and that winner will play South Carolina St in the Celebration Bowl …

Welcome back college football fans. I’m working on a new G’s Exploration that will come out in the next couple of days. The 3 games tonight are about to kickoff, and I’ll monitor them through the post. ….. Before we get into the predictions, we finally had a breakthrough week with the FBS straight up …
Welcome back, college football fans, after yet another wild and wooly week of NCAA Division I action. There were a lot a great games and great wins, but I would be remiss if I did not call out Indiana (10-0/1) for hitting double digits wins for the first time in their history by defeating Michigan …
Welcome to another wonderful week of college football! The first game has already started with Bowling Green (4-4/96) taking a 3-0 lead at C Michigan (3-5/132) with 4:13 to go in the first quarter. Any minute now we will get a kickoff as Ball St (3-5/100) hosts Miami OH (4-4/91). ….. Last week, the tons …
Welcome back to the latest GCR rankings. A couple of things after some pretty major upsets yesterday. First, we started the weekend with 9 undefeated teams. Pittsburgh, Iowa St, and Dartmouth all lost. That leaves just Army, BYU, Indiana, Miami FL, Montana St, and Oregon perfect so far. Similarly, we had 7 winless teams coming …
