I do this annually before the draft, and I like to think I’m pretty good at it–or at least that I can see when the “consensus” is wrong. In 2021, when the “consensus” was Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, Justin Fields, Mac Jones, I told you it should have been Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields,… Read More 2024 NFL Draft QB Rankings: #1 Caleb Williams
I was a year early on this. I was convinced it was coming after last season. I thought with Bryce Young and Will Anderson leaving, it was a good time for Saban to hang it up. But he came back for another year, was about as close as you can possibly get to winning yet… Read More Nick Saban The GOAT Has Retired
This is going to be basically part two to my post from earlier in the month previewing the National Championship game. In that post I went over the unprecedented nature of this year’s national championship game, in that it featured two teams who don’t recruit at an elite level. I went in depth on why… Read More An Ohio State Fan’s Reaction to Michigan Winning the National Championship
I have been traveling on and off basically since Thanksgiving. I’ve been to four different states plus another country all over the past 5 weeks. I typed up a draft of a reaction post following rivalry weekend, then added to it following Conference Championship weekend, and I meant to add in a playoff prediction post… Read More Michigan v. Washington Natty Marks New Era in CFB: Is Recruiting No Longer Important?!
Yesterday morning, former Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall woke up and chose violence. I’m not sure exactly what prompted him to throw down the gauntlet like this, but I’m glad he did because this is a really fun discussion to have: Let’s just get past the obvious racism here. A lot of people are hung… Read More WOULD A TEAM OF ALL WHITE NFL PLAYERS BEAT A TEAM OF ALL BLACK NFL PLAYERS?!
I have been traveling most of the month of December so I haven’t been really able to update the site as much as I’d like to. I had this post typed up in my notes app after the CFP Final Four was announced, and I just never got around to editing it and posting it.… Read More The CFP Committee Was Right to Put Bama in the Playoff. But FSU Fans Still have the Right to be Pissed.
There is now even more hatred between Ohio State and Michigan, if you can believe it. At first it was like, yeah, Michigan Men tend to be delusional, entitled cocksuckers and their fans are unbearable idiots, but now the hatred goes beyond that. The hatred actually has an origin story now. Because let’s be real:… Read More Ann Arbormaggedon is Coming
Well, it finally happened: Texas A&M’s boosters decided to bite the bullet and pull the plug on the Jimbo Fisher experiment, even despite the $76 million buyout. They owe him about $26 million over the next few months, and then they’ll basically be paying him a little over $7 million a year through 2031. It’s… Read More Who Will Be the Next Head Coach at Texas A&M?
Quick thoughts on Week 10: Week 11 Power Ratings, FTP Top 25: This is the point in the season where I really start to hate my power ratings. Injuries and attrition are really having an effect on a lot of teams, and the rankings can’t possibly reflect that since they’re just based off of season-long… Read More CFB Week 10 Reactions, Penn State-Michigan Preview & Prediction, Power Ratings & Gambling Picks
I normally can’t stand websites that put their content behind a paywall. I think the whole journalism business is in big trouble because they’re really caught between a rock and a hard place: you either put up a paywall, or you completely ruin the reader’s experience with ads. Some of these websites today are essentially… Read More “It just showed how much they didn’t care about the rules.” — Athletic Interviews FBS Coaches on Michigan Cheating Scandal
