Record to Date: 12-18-2 Last week was brutal. The Oregon beat is one of the worst of my entire life. They had a 99% win probability TWICE during the second half and couldn’t close it out. I admi...
Picking a loser was easy this week; it has to be Virginia Tech. Virginia Tech suffered an embarrassing loss to Old Dominion on Saturday. You would think after having a week off due to Hurricane Flor...
Ya hey we all know why you are here. So no foreplay lets just dive right in to everyone’s favorite series. Obviously to view all the plays you can visit my twitter page where I posted them. Whil...
After just four weeks of play, this has already been a big season for head coach Dino Babers and the Syracuse Orange football team. The squad, led by quarterback Eric Dungey has a record of 4-0 for th...
Last time the Ohio State football ream stepped foot into Beaver Stadium an eerily cold, snowy, and rainy day overtook State College. Neither team could get going consistently on offense or fully gain ...
It only took 2 offensive series before coach Luke Fickell replaced QB Hayden Moore with Redshirt freshman Desmond Ridder for the Bearcats. Ridder is a former 3-star recruit for the Bearcats. After tak...
Kelly Bryant started the past 18 games for Clemson… his next start will be for a different school. On Sunday, head coach Dabo Swinney informed Bryant that he was no longer the starting quarterba...

We were having a discussion in our Slack chat the other day about how other teams stack up with Alabama this year. Our Clemson guys of course thought that they stacked up well, along with a few of our...
As was said during ESPN Chicago’s radio broadcast of the Notre Dame game against Wake Forest; it is not too often you switch quarterbacks after starting 3-0. However, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish b...

Week 4 was exciting! As a student and a fan I was at the Cincinnati game when they came back from a 21-0 deficit. That was so much fun to see live, but that’s not what I’m here to tell you right n...
Just like Kyler Murray from OU, Haskins is a player that I figured would end up making this list and is also a possible Heisman contender. Dwayne Haskins hasn’t really played a bad game yet, but thi...
A very complex title, but the gist is pretty simple. Upstate New York football is somehow, someway on the map. Sorry, Army, I love what y’all did in Norman, but today is about two programs more near...
Sooo Old Dominion is pretty bad at football. Right? Maybe not. The Monarchs were off to an 0-3 start with losses to Liberty, FIU, and Charlotte. Not exactly heavyweights. So when Virginia Tech came to...
As we all know, Jim and Pam from the hit series, The Office, leave sleepy Scranton, Pennsylvania for their happily-ever-after in Texas. I always believed that Jim was destined for much greater thing...
Has the situation gotten all that better? Unless you have been living under a rock, everyone should know about the mess that was Ohio State’s offseason. I think I have published five or six arti...
After allowing a 75-yard touchdown pass on the game’s first play from scrimmage, the Alabama Crimson Tide went on to score 62 unanswered points in their week three road victory against Ole Miss. The...
Somehow, someway, we got 3 upset picks right straight up last week. Syracuse knocked off Florida State, Troy stunned Nebraska, and in perhaps the biggest surprise of this college football season, Wisc...
Record to Date: 8-14-2 (-5 units) We finally found our level last week. Week One went really well, week two went really bad, and week three finally evened out. Buying the half point on Wake Forest sav...

So we are back again with the greatest idea on the planet. It’s mine so if you use it I will sue you. Nonetheless it is time to update our candidates and how they are doing and introduce a new c...
Ohio State is the best team in the Big Ten. This isn’t really a hot take or news in any way. Even without head coach Urban Meyer, they got off to a great start, outscoring opponents in the first...
Wayne Gretzky being traded from the Edmonton Oilers to the Los Angeles Kings was heartbreaking for Oilers fans and Canadian hockey fans alike. The move helped grow the game not only on the west coast,...
Quin Hughes was drafted seventh overall by the Vancouver Canucks in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft. The uber-talented freshman defenseman lead Michigan to a Frozen Four berth. Furthermore, he set a record f...

They were the best of times (for some teams), they were the worst of times (for others). Some teams smartly played BYE this week. It’s always good to regroup and just kinda watch other teams tri...
No poll, but I figured the fellow readers of our wonderful website would’ve chosen this game since it was the closest and it was between two really good teams. So here ya go. What I saw The Good...

Another week, another step closer to the Big Ten becoming like the Pac 12 after a laughably dismal showing. Ohio State was one of the few bright spots this week, along with Penn State. The B1G has off...
In the never-ending quest to help the American public make plans well in advance, the SEC released the 2019 football schedules on Tuesday. The SEC has committed to at least one conference game every w...
Shortly after Maryland and Rutgers announced their intent to join the Big Ten in 2012, the conference implemented its geographical East-West division split. It has been a fine system and was a positiv...
Well, I am back. A lot of stuff happened in college football–like always–so I will give my opinion on those things–like always. If you want more of my thoughts just go to www.bucktho...

Week 2 was a rather exciting week, with games like Clemson at A&M going down to wire. With that being said, this week it was pretty easy to pick biggest win, as well as the most cupcake win. Mos...
Week One Record- 5-8-1 (-1.4 units) Week One was tough. Week One is always tough. Despite months of offseason research, you don’t know what a team is going to do until you actually watch them pl...
