Welcome back, sports fans. First, an apology. The intention was for us to post today’s FBS Championship game preview, but the LA/Chicago overtime playoff game during a snowstorm was too much fun to watch. The game is tonight, so the preview will come before kickoff. ….. But this morning, being Monday, is about Women’s Basketball. …

Welcome back, sports fans. It’s been an incredibly hectic time at the GCR since around September with football games as well as preparing for and then executing basketball games.

Welcome back, college football fans. We know we are just under the wire for this post – if we miss the kickoff, we will update before we sign off. Last night, the Miami FL Hurricanes gave Mississippi all it could handle including a heartbreak TD with just 18 seconds to go. The final score was …
Welcome back, college sports fans, as we do a deep dive into tonight’s FBS semifinal game. First, we need to take our hats off to the FCS champion Montana St Bobcats who edged the Illinois St Redbirds by a score of 35-34 on January 5th. The Bobcats took a 14-0 lead only to see ILST …
Welcome back, college sports fans, as we continue with our week 9 basketball analysis, albeit a day late, this time for the men. We had a longish discussion Tuesday on the women’s (also a day late) top 363 about the impact, and sometimes silliness, of playing non-division I teams and beating them 80,000 to 12 …

Welcome back, sports fans. Apologies for the one-day delay in this post. If you have been following the GCR over the last couple of weeks, the entire staff and family (all 3 of us) were on vacation in the Caribbean. We had already planned to skip week 8 for both men and women because every …
