Where Sports Are For Fans, Not Owners
What a season it's been for college football. This year has had many who follow the sport wondering if this was the wildest year the FBS has seen since 2007, when things went so off the rails that the Kansas-Missouri game was a top-3 matchup in the final week of the regular season. This week's... Continue Reading →
It's here. Conference titles are on the line this weekend as coaching changes and bowl game announcements swirl around to ensure attention stays on college football outside the championship fights. Oh, and Buffalo-Akron and New Mexico State-Valparaiso, just for fun. With the big battles staring us in the face, here's this week's Group of 5... Continue Reading →
Another weekend of college football, and more head-scratching upsets to shake up rankings. With one week left in the regular season, we have possible tiebreakers that could put a 5-2 team in a conference championship over 6-2 teams, and another where what was thought by many to possibly come down to the CFP rankings corrected...

Down the stretch we go. Just two weeks remain before conference championship games, and Toledo became the first team to clinch a spot in one last week. Over the weekend, the SEC title game and ACC title games were finalized, and Coastal Carolina wrapped up a spot in the Sun Belt title fight. Teams that... Continue Reading →
While Clemson and Alabama losing on the same day for the first time since 2013 had much of the college football world shaken up, we had a mostly straightforward week up top at the Group of 5, with our ranked teams last week going 10-3.

It was another great weekend of college football, and our Group of 5 Ranked Matchup of the Week (very unofficial) turned out to be a great game. That, for those of you who missed last week's rankings (which you can read here), was the Ohio at Marshall game. There was plenty of other exciting football this... Continue Reading →
It was another wild weekend of college football. We saw a few teams on this list get throttled, a few excelled, and a lot of teams turned in performances that were just good enough. There were also two teams on the bubble last week for beating a Power 5 opponent who then struggled with an... Continue Reading →
Week one saw a mix of nothing-to-prove games and some Group of 5 teams knocking off Power 5 opponents. There were also some embarrassing losses and concerningly close wins in games that should have been easy wins for some teams, but through one week, not much has changed as far as our perception of most...

Here we go. It's time for another season of college football, and while a lot of people focus on the teams vying for a National Championship, it's important to remember the smaller conferences and think about their division races and conference championship hunts and watch out for teams to take down a Power 5 conference...

We've hit the end of 2018. Bowl games are over, the early signings have been done, coaches have changed, and everyone's focused on recruiting and getting ready for 2019. So that leaves us with the final rankings for this season, just like the final AP Poll to summarize what teams were the best this year.... Continue Reading →
