G’s Expectation or Just 5 Games Today

G’s Evaluation or What’s the Playoff Situation?

Happy Sunday, sports fans. This weekend was a set of unexpected upsets, last minute stands, blowouts, and just a bunch of fun.

Michigan St (12) may be feeling a little bit of buyer’s remorse on the contract extension after a 56-7 loss (500 yards allowed in the first half!) to Ohio St (5).

G’s Evaluation or The Top 258 for Week 11

We had a 62-yard FG not only to win the game, but also make Texas Tech (52) bowl eligible. We had a spiked ball to stop the clock with less than 3 seconds, apparently illegal, which ended Miami FL’s (46) hope for a hail mary in the most awkward way I can think of. We …
