This week, there’s only one college football game on Saturday, and it’s one of the greatest rivalries in collegiate sports. Army-Navy will do battle on the gridiron for the 118th time. After losing like a billion straight games, it was the Black Knights last year who were able to come out victorious, by a score…

Big Ten Season Review
Its officially bowl season now in the college football landscape as the committee has made their decisions and the bowls have selected their participants. Alabama secured the final spot in the college football playoff after spending the week at home. Many people agree that the committee got it right but I still disagree. As I…
Previewing the ACC Championship Game
On Saturday, the Clemson Tigers and the Miami Hurricanes will play for a chance at an ACC Title, and a likely berth in the College Football Playoff. Miami has come out of nowhere to be on the brink of their first bid into the playoff, while Clemson has lived up to their billing, and currently…
My Projected College Football Playoff
As the Independents are obviously done this week, save for Army (whose matchup with Navy I’ll give my thoughts on later next week), I’m looking for something to rant about. Since ND shot themselves in the foot twice this year and finds themselves out of the playoff picture, I’ll take a look at the other…
FBS Independents Week 12 Thoughts
Last week, I zeroed in on the ND-Miami game because of its implications. And wouldn’t you know it, that game never happened. Or, at least I think it didn’t happen – I certainly don’t remember Miami hanging 41 points on the previously-#3 Irish. Alas, I’ve moved on. All Independent games this week are on Saturday….
Does Navy Have A Chance To Upset Notre Dame?
The short answer is no, well probably not at least. But the long answer will change that no to a maybe. Now it is no secret that Navy’s schedule in the second half is quite the gauntlet. The Midshipmen have already faced off against Memphis, UCF, Temple while they still have matchups that include Notre…
Keys to a Miami Victory against Notre Dame
A week after suffocating Virginia Tech and only allowing 10 points, the Miami Hurricanes find themselves in another position to put themselves in the top four if they can beat Notre Dame. The rivalry looks to be renewed this year, after both programs, particularly Miami have been up and down in the last decade or…
FBS Independents Spotlight: Notre Dame v. The U
UMass, Army and BYU are all playing this week, but they’re just going to have to get comfortable in the backseat. This week’s biggest college football game is between two historic programs in #3 Notre Dame and #7 Miami. Because of the playoff implications surrounding this primetime game, I’m zeroing in on the Catholics vs….
Could This Be The Prelude To The MAC Championship?
We have a good one on tap for the Mid-American Conference this week as the Toledo Rockets are traveling to face the Ohio Bobcats. Toledo is slightly favored in this one by only three points, the Rockets are 8-1 on the year and are atop the MAC West standings. Meanwhile, the Bobcats are 7-2 on…
Best Worst Game Of The Week: Arizona State v. UCLA
I’m starting to get good at picking these Best Worst Games Of The Week. Last week, the Cowboys of Wyoming were able to oust Colorado State, despite being a closer score than I anticipated. As the end of the regular season is within sight, and with basketball just around the corner, I’m tossing around the…
Meet Your ACC Quarterback Draft Sleeper- John Wolford
Much like Nathan Peterman a year ago, a quarterback from the ACC has the potential to be a draft sleeper, from now until Mobile, Alabama for Senior Week. Meet Wake Forest’s John Wolford. Wolford has been a four-year starter for the Demon Deacons, and after three years of mediocre numbers, has finally put it all…
Previewing A Huge Elimination Game in the ACC- Virginia Tech @ Miami
On Saturday, Miami and Virginia Tech will face off in a de facto elimination game under the lights in Coral Gables. Both teams have been pleasant surprises, as Virginia Tech has impressed under Justin Fuente, and sit at 7-1, with their only loss being at the hands of Clemson, who currently sits at #4 in…
