Bold Predictions for Week 7 - 2024 College Football

Despite the chaos of Week 6, last week’s bold predictions just were not bold enough. Missouri was blown out rather than securing a road win as predicted. Miami surely did not blow California out as it needed a final-minute touchdown to win by one point. Will Rogers did turn the ball over for the first […]

College Football Risers and Fallers After Week 6 - 2024 College Football

Week 6 was one of the most insane weekends of college football in recent memory. From a bird’s eye view, the slate looked boring. Only one ranked matchup, College Gameday in California for an after-dark kickoff, and top teams playing what appeared to be cupcakes. That could not be more wrong. Expect the unexpected in […]

Bold Predictions for Week 6 - 2024 College Football

College Football Risers and Fallers After Week 3 - 2024 College Football

The middle […]
