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) …

G’s Evaluation or The Regular Season is Done

Hello Football Fans and I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving feasts. I have to travel (just found out over the holiday) today so all analysis will be in tonight’s blog. There’s a lot to talk about so tune in again this evening live (or typed, whatever) from North Carolina. As always, my aim is to …

G’s Week 13 Evaluation or The End is Nigh

Good morning Football Fans!! This is a special early edition of the GCR published not just out of pure excitement (I really do not like mornings) but also out of necessity. I’ll be out of pocket from about 10 minutes from now until the evening (just in time for some analytics), so this post is …

G’s Evaluation or Shake Up Week

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 …

G’s Evaluation or Did We Get Any Clarity?

Good morning oh great and wonderful college football fans. What a week of football – we started with the MAC playing Tuesday and Wednesday, then had good games on Thursday and Friday before the blockbuster games including 3 games between undefeated teams. Let’s start with those. In the Ivy League, Princeton (164) traveled to Dartmouth …

G’s Evaluation for Week 10

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 …

G’s Evaluation for Week 9

The crazy month of October is gone (ok, almost) for college football and what craziness it was. There were upsets galore, many that have or will have an impact on the Playoff. I said almost because there are 2 game Halloween night: Georgia Southern (34) at App State (18) and West Virginia (64) at Baylor …

G’s Evaluation and Explanation or What a(nother) Weekend!? Upset Week Part Deux!

Once again, this is a combined post of both “normal” Sunday analyses. Florida A&M beat North Carolina A&T 31-28 in OT this afternoon to complete Week 8 action. In this post we are going to see the full GCR (spoiler alert, Alabama is NOT in the top 4 – I know all of my Auburn …
