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 […]

It's never too early to get excited about the next season of college football, and we'll continue to talk about it and debate it all offseason long.

College Football Head Coach Hot Seat Rankings for 2026

Someone losing their job is not a joyful conversation in the "real world", yet in sports, discussing coaches who could be fired soon is always a hot topic.

The running back position already looks loaded for next year, and that's without factoring in surprise breakouts among transfers, risers on the depth chart, and true freshmen. This list […]

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. When BYU won the national championship in 1984, the big conferences were so mad that they began collaborating on ways to keep something like that from ever happening again. […]

Ranking the Best College Football Head Coaching Hires this Offseason (Top 2025-26 Signings)

It's been a wild offseason in college football already, and several big-time programs had openings at the head coach spot. Programs are getting less and less patient, and head coaches are being churned in and out. This hiring cycle might just be a glimpse of the new normal in college football, but for now, it […]

CFP National Championship Game - DraftKings Showdown CFB DFS Lineup Picks 1/19/26

There is only one team that made it out of the first-round bye in the expanded playoff out of the eight that tried. It's the Indiana Hoosiers, who feel like the team of destiny. On the other side, we have a team that couldn't even get into the ACC Championship Game. Did the second expanded […]

Top 25 College Football Playoff Player Performances of All Time

Okay, so "all time" is a bit of an oxymoron since the College Football Playoff has only been around since 2014. We are only on the second year of a 12-team playoff, so we don't have a ton of games to choose from. That said, there have been some elite players who shone brightest on […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Slate (12/27/25)

DFS has been even more of a slippery slope this year, with it becoming even more trendy to quit before "meaningless" bowl games. Where else can you win a trophy full of piping hot baked beans or soak your coach with iced coffee? Those are just two of the things that you don't see every […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Slate (12/20/25)

There are only three games on our college football Saturday, but every one of them is a big game. We're not worried about opt-outs here. All three games are college football playoff games.

College Football Playoff Bracket Projections: Final Predictions for the 12-Team Field on Selection Sunday

This year was further proof that we don't need more than four teams in a playoff. It's simple. Indiana, Georgia, Ohio State, and Texas Tech. Done. NY6 bowls still matter. Unfortunately, we can't have nice things anymore because money ruined them. This wasn't armageddon for the CFP committee, but there are still some decisions that […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Main Slate (12/6/25)

"Championship Saturday" isn't quite the same, with only nine conferences and four of those having games on Friday night. That's okay. It spreads out the DFS a little bit and creates two good slates instead of one. It also makes it a little harder to set your lineups apart. That's what I'm here for. We […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Friday Slate (12/5/25)

Championship Weekend is here. This year, they did us a solid and split up the nine games pretty evenly between Friday and Saturday. It's maximum exposure for all 18 teams involved. It also makes for a couple of very interesting DFS slates. We start this off with the Conference USA title game from Jacksonville, where […]

College Football Playoff Picture: CFP Analysis for Bubble Teams Including Alabama, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Virginia, Miami, Texas

We are here at conference championship week, nearly a month after the first CFP rankings came out. We still have no clarity on what they value. Losing one committee member didn't help, but the wishy-washy, politician-type answers given to questions leave more questions than answers. Now the CFP committee is faced with some really big […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Evening Slate (11/29/25)
