G’s Expectation or What to Watch in Week 2

Happy Thursday and welcome to the beginning of week 2. Yesterday, in G’s Explanation, we talked about the still fairly mismatched slate we have in front of us. Tonight’s game, for example, pits FCS Murray St (1-0/110) at Louisville (1-0/47) with a 7:30 (all times Eastern) kickoff on the ACC Network. There are 17 other …

G’s Expectation or It’s Opening Weekend!

We had a wonderful appetizer last weekend in which the only semi-surprising result was Jacksonville St over New Mexico St for the Gamecocks first ever FBS victory. Playing an FCS school this week, they could start 2-0 before September really even gets going. Notre Dame, Southern Cal, and Vandy kept the Power 5 conferences 3-0, …

Sorry for the late post, college football fans, but it’s been one of those days.

G’s Expectation or It’s a Nice Day, Let’s Play Five

Happy Friday, college football fans and welcome back after another day of close games (aargh). Minnesota (-10.0) looked like they would cover Syracuse in the Pinstripe Bowl until they give up a TD with 2:30 to go creating a 28-20 final. Vegas 0-1, GCR 1-0, Cover 0-1. The Cheez-It Bowl was close throughout and very …

All I can say is “wow!”, oh great and wonderful college football fans. What a set of games yesterday! In the Military Bowl, UCF gave Duke everything they could handle before the Blue Devils finally put the last nail in the coffin late in the 4th to take the game 30-13. Vegas 1-0, GCR 1-0, …
