31 College Football "Little Brother" Rivalries

Does anyone remember November 3, 2007? Yes, 2007 was arguably the best college football season we have ever had. FCS Appalachian State knocked off a top-5 team in the opening weekend in arguably the biggest upset in college football history. Conferences made sense. At least one top-5 team fell every week. No. 1 and No. […]

College Basketball Power Rankings: Final Top 25 Rankings For 2025-26

The NCAA Tournament didn't see a lot of first-round upsets. Two of the biggest upsets of the first weekend were made by major conference teams with low seeds (Texas and Iowa). Part of that is the committee "rewarding" the top mid-major teams with eight and nine seeds, pitting them against one of the four best […]

Ranking The College Basketball National Championship Teams Since 2000

We just crowned another champion. That makes 26 this century. We are a little over a quarter of the way through this century, and we have seen some dominant teams cut down the nets. We've seen a few generationally good teams fail to win the title (Kentucky in 2015 comes to mind). Some teams tried […]

Top 30 Greatest Defunct College Football Rivalries

Conference realignment is all the rage right now as conferences look to monopolize good teams to get better TV deals and teams look for more security. Money has destroyed much of what makes college football special. The collapse of the Pac-12 and the radical changes in the Big 12 have led to many rivalry games […]

CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (3/22/26)

Eight teams have advanced to next weekend. We have eight more to go! The Friday games were all chalk once the officials got involved in the Kentucky game.

CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (3/21/26)

The 16-game extravaganza on Thursday leads to eight games today. These are 16 solid teams. We had some fun upsets, some would-be upsets until the officials got involved, and some wall-to-wall blowouts. Those should be less frequent in these eight games, but honestly, I think I only see one game that could be a blowout. […]

12 Overseeded, Underseeded March Madness Teams: College Basketball NCAA Tournament

CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (3/19/26)

Top 25 College Basketball Power Rankings for Week 19 (2026)

We are on the eve of the greatest four days of sports on the planet. None of my ranked teams missed the NCAA Tournament.

Future Power 4 Head Coach Candidates: Group of 6 College Football Coaching Risers

Curt Cignetti's success at Indiana after moving from James Madison has changed college football coaching cycles forever.

Some were fired because the teams were stuck in the […]

Top 25 College Basketball Power Rankings for Week 16 (2026)

There are only two weeks left of the regular season. Where did the season go? I have a theory. Back in the "old days," college football ended during the first couple of days of January.

Ranking Every College Football National Championship Team Since 1985

Who is the best team ever? Since college football began in 1869, not one person has seen every championship team play. The ambiguity of early polls sometimes crowned several champions per season. The AP Poll in 1936 helped to alleviate that, but there were still issues. Issues that still aren't completely resolved. When I was […]

Ranking Every College Football National Championship Game: All 27 Games Since the BCS Era

College football has always induced passionate arguments from fans. For over 100 years, the argument over who was the best team wasn't settled on the field.
