Some fun analysis about college football – includes both data and opinion
Hello oh great and patient fans. I haven’t been posting these last few days because a) I’m working on a couple changes to the weighting of certain formulaic pieces in preparation for the 2020 season based on learning from this year and correctly some mathematical logic that skewed some teams up or down a tad …

Hello greatest fans on Earth. Thanks to Auburn, the playoff picture got a little clearer and a lot less controversial, but nothing is yet in stone. I’ve put together some scenarios for the 7 legitimate contenders. I’ll talk about that more in a moment – it’s clearly a comment generating kind of thing. Thursday night, …

Happy MAC Nation Tuesday, everyone!! I’m watching Eastern Michigan (108/96) against Northern Illinois (82/78).

Ohio (72/68) is at Bowling Green (167/118) and should get the road win (64.5%). They are …

Happy Tuesday everyone! So I took a break earlier today (yes, I have a day job and there’s a lot going on right now) to watch a little of the Eastern Michigan (117)/Akron (254) and the Western Michigan (136)/Ohio (77) games. Both are being played in Ohio and this arctic snap was causing some snow …

Wow! It’s week 9 already. I’m back in normal routine this week – whew!! That doubling up stuff was hard to write and probably harder to read all the way through. It could be worse: you could have to listen to my squeaky little voice instead. Wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy. In some …
Ok, fans, you never blame the weather or the officials, although they both make good conversation fodder. And, no, that will not be the topic of Sunday’s blogs. The reference in the title is a move to Sunday for the North Carolina A&T/Florida A&M game. I know it won’t have a huge impact on the …
Ok, faithful fans, we have had our annual wacky Saturday and things were shaken up a bit. I know none of us ever expect a bunch of teenagers to do something erratic or unexpected, but sometimes life just throws these surprises at us. The GCR doesn’t think the craziness is over, but I get ahead …
