Greetings to a late version of G’s Evaluation. This weekend was insanely busy even without 115ish college football games and I’m a little behind schedule. Sorry about that. There is a lot to take in. Starting in the FCS, we started this week with 3 undefeated teams in the Ivy League and dropped to just …

Hello college football fans and welcome to that one week a year that seems like the calm before the (soon to be) November storm. 7 of the GCR top 25 (4 of the top 10) are idle. There is only one game between top 25 opponents (see below). The remaining 16 of that elite group …

So, oh wonderful sports fans, I’m back in Columbus again this week and trying to figure out what the upsets and close games mean from this past weekend. I have 3 looks for today. The first one is about the GCR predictions. If you recall, before last week, I retooled (reevaluated the regression for your …

Just…wow, college football fans. I don’t know about you, but I am so tired from the stress of yesterday’s games that I may need to go back to bed after this post. Iowa (8) losing bad at home to Purdue (8), last minute games where the “better” team never led or gave up an early …

And we are back to another wonderful weekend of college football. The week actually started Tuesday when Louisiana (53) beat visiting App St (59) 41-13 in a game of 4-1 teams trying to keep pace with Coastal Carolina (16) in the Sun Belt. Those GCR numbers are pre-game so the Cajuns should rise a few …

So, oh great and wonderful fans, we had a second week of upsets and mayhem that triggered a number of changes. First, each year, I make changes to the prediction algorithm based on the current year’s games. This year, last year’s formula was just getting worse each week – of the 106 games over the …

Greetings from the Columbus, Ohio airport. I’ve got a few minutes before my flight and wanted to take advantage in getting the GCR predictions posted – I know you are waiting with bated breath (he types as sarcastically as possible). the games tonight should both be a bit lopsided but if you get a chance …

Good evening Sports Fans. In today’s G’s Evaluation, I mentioned a few upsets. Let’s start there. The GCR picks upsets (meaning the GCR predicts a different winner than Vegas) every week. Last week, a very sad 5-11 (but 10-6 against the spread) is not what I mean. The week before I was 8-9 in those …

Happy Sunday, college football fans. After watching Upset Week #1 for this year (tune in for this evening’s post for more on that), the GCR has shifted around quite a bit. If the playoffs were today, Georgia (1), who massacred Arkansas (9) would face off against Oklahoma St (4), who edged Kansas St (16), and …
