G’s Evaluation or The Top 265 after Week 5

Welcome back, college football fans, after a rough and tumble and fantastic weekend! The standings are all wonky compared to what we’d expect.

G’s Expectation or All the Week 5 Games

Welcome back, college football fans, to the latest episode of the GCR.

G’s Expectation or Who Wins in Week Four Action?

Welcome back to a late G’s Expectation. I wanted to post this on Wednesday night, but there were too many things to do to get ready for my second hip replacement on Thursday morning. I wanted to post Thursday night, but I’m assuming anyone reading this would not want the drug-addled post it would have …

G’s Evaluation or Why Is the Top 265 Shuffling So Much?

Welcome back, college football fans, after a wonderful but exhausting weekend of the greatest sport in the world. Georgia (3-0/10) edged Tennessee (2-1/36) on an overturned call in overtime, Texas A&M (3-0/22) won over Notre Dame (0-2/65) on a 4th and goal bit of magic, Vanderbilt (3-0/27) stopped a 16-game losing streak to South Carolina …

G’s Expectation or All the Games This Weekend

That does leave us with 74 decent matchups, 11 of which …

G’s Evaluation or The Top 265 after Week 2

Welcome back, oh great and wonderful college football fans, for the latest weirdness that is the GCR Top 265. I say that only because most of the teams have not showcased who they are yet.

G’s Expectation or The Disappointment of Week 2

Welcome back, college sports fans, to the latest episode of the GCR where we will be looking at the best games over the weekend. Honestly, it’s normally a bit more difficult to write an Expectation, trying to narrow down which games are really the cream of the crop or the most important. Normally, I don’t …

G’s Evaluation or the Top 265 For Week 1

Welcome back, college football fans, from a 5-day, long-weekend, football extravaganza! Jojo and I were able to watch the Aflac Kickoff between Virginia Tech and South Carolina here in Atlanta and that place was rocking! I admit I watch more football than most, but I watched at least part of over 30 games this weekend, …
