Ranking and blogs about College Football
Happy Thursday everyone. I talk about the FBS in nearly every post, but not tonight. We are beginning rivalry week for the FCS, the last week of the regular season, and preparing for the FCS playoffs. First, let’s look at how the FCS conferences line up. I looked at overall records, non-conference records, and average …
It took some digging, oh great and wonderful college football fans, but the treasure hunt was fruitful. I’ve now found each of the last rankings (6 of them in emails prior to the blog) and compiled them into a single page. I’ve created a weighting system that rewards recency (a team ranked in the top …
Greetings, college football fans, and welcome to another night of MAC football! Bowling Green (5-5/116) is at Toledo (7-3/63) and off to a booming 14-0 start (2:50 in the first). Toledo has the Vegas nod at -14.5 and the GCR nod at 68.5%, but the GCR does have the Falcons to cover +14.5. Also, at …
To the grieving college football community and especially to the shock and pain the University of Virginia is feeling, this latest shooting involving a school is many too many. An ex-player at Virginia shot and killed 3 current football players as well as wounding 2 other students. He has been apprehended and perhaps we will …

Greetings oh great and wonderful college football fans. Who would have thought at this point in the season, UCONN and Kansas would be bowl eligible while Oklahoma, Memphis, Miami FL, BYU, App St and Arkansas still need another victory to claim a spot. Or that Texas A&M would be the first SEC team to get …

Happy Sunday after a wonderful Saturday of college football. 2 previously undefeated teams earned their first L of the season when Clemson (8-1/6) lost on the road to Notre Dame (6-3/19) and Tennessee (8-1/5) lost the battle of 8-0’s to Georgia (9-0/1). Two 1-loss FBS teams suffered their second defeat effectively dropping them out of …
Happy Tuesday and welcome to MACNation 2022! This is the time of year the MAC conference entertains us on Tuesdays and Wednesdays which not only gives us some level of football every day of the week, but also allows these athletes to shine without a lot of competition. Tonight, Ball St (4-4/102) and Kent St …
Happy Sunday, college football fans. I hope your team did well yesterday (none of mine did, but that’s college football). We did have a previously undefeated team go down yesterday when Penn (6-1/139) lost to Brown (3-4/210) 34-31. That leaves us with 6 Power 5 teams (Georgia, Ohio St, Michigan, Tennessee, Clemson, and TCU, in …
Happy Thursday and the start of Week 9 in college football! Years ago, when I first started the original calculations, I didn’t have any predictions.
