Happy Sunday!!! Oklahoma (20) broke an all time record by overcoming a 25 point deficit to beat Baylor (5). 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 …
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 …
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 …

Hello all of you Tuesday blog readers. Tonight I have two topics: the second title and a salute to MACNation. First, the salute. Being November the MAC is playing games on Tuesday and Wednesday nights. This is one of the best traditions in college football and, in my humble opinion, the best for the mid-majors …
Good evening to all the college football fans out there. Earlier today, we talked about the number of high-ranking teams who were idle. In Division I, the weekend started with 12 undefeated teams – 9 in FBS and 3 in FCS – and 8 winless schools – 3 in FBS and 5 in FCS. Of …

Hello fans. Was it just me or did it seem there were a ton of byes this weekend? There was only one marquee matchup between top 25 teams: Georgia (then 22, now 11) beat Florida (then 6, now 9). It turns out there were 45 teams that were bye out of 256. That is the …
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. …
