Greetings and Happy Festivus oh great and wonderful football fans. It’s Christmas morning (granted just a few minutes after midnight) in Sydney and when the mates there wake up they are going to want to know all about this year’s Hawaii Bowl. I’ll do my best. The game started in 2002 and Hawaii automatically gets …

Good evening football fans. Before I jump into tomorrow’s bowl and the whole pirate explanation, there were 9 bowl or playoff games on Saturday. The FCS semifinals finished as expected with James Madison (64/1) and defending champions and undefeated North Dakota State (101/9) rolling to the January 11 title game in Frisco, Texas. These teams …
Hello fans – history was made today. There were two bowls and 3 milestones. First, Charlotte played in their first bowl ever – Nassau isn’t a bad first stop. Buffalo did win the game and cover the spread (a loss for the GCR), and it was their first ever bowl win in 4 tries. Congratulations …
Greetings college football fans. The bittersweet month of December is closing – a bunch of bowl games and playoff games are about to hit us as the hectic hustle and bustle of the holiday season, to be followed by 8 months of spring and fall camps, ungodly amounts of speculation, and anticipation for 2020. Don’t …

Greetings and salutations oh great and wonderful fans. This week was…odd. Not only was my life outside of blogging even busier than normal (and that’s kind of saying something, tbh), but there’s only 1 FBS game, the only FCS bowl game and the FCS quarterfinals happening this week. Oh yeah, and the bowl schedule was …

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. …

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) …

Greetings College Football Fans! It’s Championship Week!!!! Also the FCS Playoffs are in round 2! What a great week. 19 games and every single one of them is…I was going to say important, but all games are important to the teams playing in them, at the very least, so how about substantially important. 11 conferences …

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, …
