What happens out in the lots, stays out in the lots.
This Saturday, August 25th, college football returns into our lives. The 2018 season kicks off with Duquesne traveling to UMASS, a game that is certainly bound to be one of the most pivotal contests of this new campaign. Just kidding. We asked our contributors to take a stab at a few predictions for this upcoming season. […]
Bowlmas is the best time of year, and one of the best parts is watching Group of Five teams truly enjoy their bowl games. There’s less pressure on draft picks and avoiding injuries, and more visible pride. 20 of the 40 scheduled bowl games this year feature at least one G5 team. Below, they’ve been […]
The return of college football is right up there among the most required activities ever. 2017 has been a beast, but maybe the time stretching quality of the news cycle these days will spill over to CFB as well, and it won’t seem like the season is over in 3 hours. In 2017, the non-P5 […]
Bowl season is magical. The winter holidays can be stressful at times, but Bowlmas is the greatest event in modern times. It should be a national holiday. A week long celebration of amazing athletes and dramatic games…and maybe some less dramatic games, but we love ‘em all. There are not too many bowls, there’s just […]
Conference champ weekend is always a good show, and this last weekend was no different. Western Michigan finally crossed their first finish line, winning the MAC championship in a tight game vs. Ohio U. Temple did what so many other teams could not and stopped Navy on their way to an American Conference championship. Arkansas […]
Could last weekend have been any more intense in the Group of Five? Sure, the big schools pretty much behaved as expected, but the G5 teams were basically a swirling mass of insanity. Houston lost to Memphis. Boise lost to Air Force by lack of one yard. Navy hung 75 freaking points on SMU. Idaho […]
Last weekend was pretty stable, as far as the top teams go. Louisville lost to Houston, and is probably now out of playoff contention, but the top 4 stayed the same. It’s more interesting as we go down the rankings though. Utah had a free fall like nobody quite believes they are P5 yet. WVU […]
Welp, the chaos gods got bored after all the excitement early last week, and decided to play in the Top 25 as a bit of a nightcap. Michigan, Clemson, and Washington all lost last weekend, and allowed Ohio State to climb back in the top four of the CFP committee’s rankings. The AP and the […]
Writing pithy comments about football games that already happened, with everything else going on in the world today just doesn’t seem right, so let’s get to it with an eye to the future instead of the past. Group of Five Rankings 5. San Diego State Aztecs Sorry, Tulsa, but SDSU is getting stronger and is […]
We’re more than halfway through the insanity. Its coming to the serious part of the college football season – the first round of College Football Playoff Committee rankings came out this week, it’s the thick of conference play, and we’re at the point in the season when the great teams separate themselves from the rest.
