Over the summer, it became clear that expansion of the playoff is inevitable.

The current… Read More How to Fix College Football
This is where we stand after 10 weeks of college football (although of course most teams have had a bye so they’ve only played 9 games). Georgia and Alabama remain solidified at the top in a class of their own, while Ohio State and Michigan are a bit lower in a tier of their own:… Read More CFB Power Ratings: Week 10
The Committee’s first playoff rankings are in: Okay, at first glance, there are a few interesting takeaways, namely that Oregon is all the way up to #4 despite being #7 in the AP poll. But it’s no surprise that the Committee put Oregon over Ohio State given the head-to-head result. That’s how it should be.… Read More Initial CFP Rankings: 1. Georgia, 2. Alabama, 3.

It is becoming a cardinal rule of college football these days: No matter how good Michigan looks early in the season, do not buy into the hype. They will disappoint you. It is inevitable.

In what feels like the blink of an eye, we’re already through week 8 of the 2021 college football season. It has certainly been a fun season, of course, but it’s more than halfway done. While this weekend wasn’t viewed as a great slate of games (that’s next weekend), there were actually quite a few… Read More College Football Week 8 Recap: 9 OTs in State College, Okie State Goes Down, OU’s Williams Rips Ball From Teammate in Heroic, Game-Winning Play
That is a real photo of a Purdue lineman chugging a beer that was thrown onto the field in the third quarter of the game. Was it a little early to start celebrating?

While we have already seen some heavyweight non-conference bouts, like Georgia-Clemson and Oregon-Ohio State, most of the… Read More College Football Mid-Season Report: The Stats That Will Decide “Who’s In”
Man, college football is awesome this year. My only complaint thus far was that for as much chaos as there has been in the rankings, Bama and Georgia were solidly at the top of the rankings and clearly way ahead of everyone else. Because of how many upsets we’ve seen, people were comparing this season… Read More College Football Week 6 Reactions: BAMA GOES DOWN; Iowa Beats Penn State in Comeback Fashion
