All Division I Football, and Men's and Women's Basketball
What to watch in college football and game predictions
Welcome back to an abbreviated Expectation, oh great and wonderful college football fans. Here at GCR headquarters, aka the living room, we had some unexpected events over the weekend along with a ton of follow up doctor’s appointments. So far so good on that front.
