Happy Wednesday college football fans. There is a pretty big game tonight so the what to watch is coming a day early. But before we get into that here’s a bit of interesting stuff. In a normal year by the time we get to week 7, we’d expect there to be just a couple of …
What a great weekend of college football – shootouts, blowouts, last minute scores, upsets, critical reviews, bad calls – all we could want in a weekend. Before we get to far into analysis, the GCR went 6-3 or a combined 7-3 season record. Oklahoma (36) bested Texas (38) in 4 OT, Clemson (6) was not …

It’s Thursday!!!! Only 1 more day (and 2 college games) before Saturday!! What could possibly be more exciting?!?! I’m watching Houston’s debut this year hosting 2-1 Tulane (60).

Happy Sunday college football fans and welcome to 2020s first GCR published rankings. How, you may but probably won’t ask, can you publish when some teams haven’t played yet and some have only played 1 game? Well, it all comes down to the shower. No, not TMI at all, it’s just I tend to think …

College Football 2020 (or some semblance of it) is underway and already there have been fireworks! How about the Sun Belt going 3-0 against the Little (Big) 12? If I were a betting man (and long-term readers know I’m not), I would expect to see more upsets than usual this year: practice isn’t the same, …

Hello college football fans. I know you’ve been following the cancellations/ postponements/ threats to change conferences or to play independents schedules etc., just as I have. And, like me, you’ve probably been trying to keep up with the status. So here it is as of August 15 at 2:38pm Eastern. Let’s start with the FCS: …
Greetings and welcome to August, aka level 8 of 2020. The major conferences have made their “final” scheduling decisions despite conflicts between conferences and threats of multiple player hold outs. Next time, I’m going to summarize all of the mess (hoping to hear some more from the Group of 5 and FCS conferences by then). …

It’s been close to 2 weeks since my post about the ACC’s schedule. First, apologies for not being quicker in the schedule series. A lot has happened since then in…I was about to say in the world of college football, but we all know it’s broader than that. This post is outside of the series …
