G’s Evaluation or Week 11 Rankings

Greetings all! It’s been a weird weekend. Games started on Tuesday and the last one was played today. Yep, a rare Sunday game because UCLA (80) and California (142) had their original games cancelled due to Covid (one of 17 games impacted this week) so they decided to quick schedule a 9:00am Pacific time game …

G’s Evaluation or What a Great Week for the Top 139!

Good Sunday morning to all of you! Whether your team (or candidate) won or lost, let’s remember the important things. A friend of mine’s daughter’s team won her softball tournament this weekend. I talked to my mother and mother-in-law. My daughter took the SAT and could drive with a non-family member in the car for …

G’s Evaluation or Week 9 Rankings

What a fantastic weekend of football!! We saw expected and unexpected blowouts, a few upsets, some OTs, a brawl for the ages, and some down to the wire contests. That was fun, however… if you didn’t see it, Dan Mullen (Florida head coach) took umbrage when his QB took what Mullen thought was a late …

G’s Evaluation or College Football Ranking for Week 8

I hope all of you had a great day of football yesterday with 25 new teams playing including the Big 10 and Mountain West conference debuts. Some weird stuff happened in you weren’t paying attention. Rutgers (9), Purdue (19), and Indiana (20) (not recent powerhouses by any stretch of the imagination), upset Michigan St (101), …

G’s Evaluation or More Shuffling at the Top

Wake Forest (then 45) took out Virginia (then 31). And Florida St (then 59) who struggled with FCS Jacksonville St earlier this year, upended …

G’s Evaluation or College Football Rankings Week 6

What a great weekend of college football – shootouts, blowouts, last minute scores, upsets, critical reviews, bad calls – all we could want in a weekend. Before we get to far into analysis, the GCR went 6-3 or a combined 7-3 season record. Oklahoma (36) bested Texas (38) in 4 OT, Clemson (6) was not …

G’s Evaluation or The Initial GCR Rankings

Happy Sunday college football fans and welcome to 2020s first GCR published rankings. How, you may but probably won’t ask, can you publish when some teams haven’t played yet and some have only played 1 game? Well, it all comes down to the shower. No, not TMI at all, it’s just I tend to think …

G’s Evaluation or Turn the Page

Hello and welcome to the first post-LSU championship blog. What a fun game to watch last night. At times it looked like a chess match not just between the coaches but between the QBs. In the end, LSU was the better team and the GCR fell to 26-14 for the FBS during the bowl season. …

G’s Evaluation Part II or How Do the Teams Rank Going into Bowl Season

Hello and greetings from the Packers State or Cheese State or Badger State or whatever Wisconsin’s nickname is. All jokes aside, this is a great football state and the Badgers were 30 minutes away from a major upset. They certainly did enough to drop the Buckeyes from the top perch to a date with Clemson. …

G’s Evaluation Part I or How Easy Did This Get In Two Days?

As I’m watching Ohio State’s monstrous second half, I decided the playoff picture is set. I won’t have the full GCR published until later tomorrow (traveling really early for work and there’s a late game in the FCS). Here’s what happened for those not paying attention (all rankings CFP going into this week): Utah (5) …
