Round 2 of the College Football Playoff has come and gone, and we’re down to just 4 teams. Last week, we got our first road CFP wins (not at neutral sites) in the 12-team era. However, last year, all four teams with byes went down. This long layoff is clearly something the committee needs to…
Happy New Year everyone! Just one more game remains for each team with week 17 complete, and we’ve already seen many teams clinch and several players set records. I thought we had all our takeaways neatly tied up heading into Sunday night, and then THAT game happened, so you get a rare 6th one this…
On this page, I’m going to be providing the free agent signing grades for the notable signings and extensions that occur in 2025 (most recent first) based on how good a deal the signing team obtained and the type of impact I expect the player to have. Please note that an offseason signing cannot be…
Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah! If you’re reading this, your level of holiday cheer may depend on what happened with your team. The good: the Seahawks, 49ers, Bears, Eagles, Jaguars, Patriots, Chargers, and Bills all clinched playoff berths. The bad: Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa got benched, and replacement Quinn Ewers was much worse. In more…
We have finally arrived! It’s year two of the revamped College Football Playoff, and the committee almost aligned with my personal picks again. We were just one team apart, so I’m pretty happy with that. The top 4 seeds got byes, while the other 8 participants played for the right to face them. In the…
Just when we all started getting in the holiday spirit, things started happening and shook us. A team we have grown accustomed to seeing in February has been eliminated in December. Multiple stars went down with serious injuries. Normally elite K Brandon Aubrey missed not once, but TWICE. Fortunately, plenty of good things happened to…
One team’s misfortune can be another team’s triumph. Cincinnati and Buffalo played a thrilling shootout in the snow, but only the Bills have a realistic shot at the playoffs as a result. Chicago and Baltimore had agonizing finishes to their games, but Pittsburgh and Green Bay relished taking over first place in their respective divisions….
We’ve finally made it! All the games (except bowls) have been played, we know the conference champions, and we’re about ready to find out who made the CFP. Before the committee releases the official results, I wanted to share who I thought should be in and the order in which they should be ranked. I…
Welcome to the conference championships! For most of these teams, this is the big goal. A select few have CFP dreams. I’ll be covering each of the 9 FBS title games (no Pac-12 once again*), so expect a long article. Therefore, I’m not going to do specific CFP and draft sections here. I’m writing a…
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Some fanbases are really thankful, like those of the league-leading Patriots. Others, such as fans of the Titans, are trying to find something to celebrate this holiday. Some miracles are also taking place. Chicago owns the #1 seed in the NFC, Carolina is above .500 13 games in, and the Chiefs are…
