G’s Evaluation or It’s a Wrap on 2024

Welcome to the final football post for the 2024 season. Usually, I’m a little quicker on the final ranking, but I’ve been working on some soon to be announced, and I hope substantially improving, upgrades to the GCR. I’ll have a post soon talking about those changes. This post is to congratulate all 263 D1 …

G’s Expectation or The Bowls Are Winding Down

Welcome back, oh great and wonderful college football fans, to episode 442 of the GCR.

Without QB1 Beck, who was injured and declared for the draft, the Bulldogs looked lost on offense. Notre Dame came prepared …

G’s Evaluation or The Rivalry Week Top 263

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 …

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.

G’s Evaluation or the Top 263 for Week 11

Welcome back, college football fans, after yet another wild and wooly week of NCAA Division I action.

G’s Evaluation or the Top 263 For Week 9

Welcome back college football fans. I believe we finally had our big upset week. There weren’t major names losing as much as just a bunch of games not going as expected. Congratulations to Kennesaw St (1-6/151) who beat Liberty (5-1/41) for their first ever FBS win. It began a trend for the weekend. 21 FBS …

G’s Evaluation or The Top 263 for Week 8

Welcome back and, may I say, “wow!” What a crazy week. After Georgia (6-1/13) upset previous leader Texas (6-1/8) the Top 10 got shuffled. The only member to drop out of that list was idle Ohio St (5-1/12) whose tenth spot was taken over by Tennessee (6-1/10). Both Army (7-0/9) and Navy (6-0/15) retain perfection. …
