The second edition of the College Football Playoff Rankings is out! Yet again, several of us couldn’t watch the reveal due to ESPN and YouTube TV’s tone deaf, shortsighted spat. But again, no point in getting into that any further.
The rankings stayed the same at the top this week, but we had some movers outside of the top five, like the Miami Hurricanes. Here’s a look at the latest rankings and a few winners and losers from the latest round of rankings.

Well folks, I’m back from my temporary Kirk speaks hiatus and I’m back from a rainy Kinnick Stadium where I stood in the rain for hours to watch a Phil Parker defense give away a late lead from the Iowa offense. WHAT KIND OF WORLD ARE WE LIVING IN? A cruel one, that’s what. And […]

For Ohio State fans clamoring for more night games in The Shoe, they’re getting a third night game this season Saturday night when the Buckeyes host UCLA. This is a rare matchup, but it will become more common with conference realignment and the Bruins joining the Big Ten. There are numbers to back up how […]
College sports, especially football, are beloved by its fans. However, most of those fans will also admit that college sports are a mess. Scandals and cheating have been going on for decades, but it’s only increased in recent years. With the introduction of NIL, the rampant use of the transfer portal, and the ongoing conference […]
We’re back in familiar territory, Syracuse Orange football fans. Another uncompetitive loss, this time a 38-10 drubbing to No. 15 Miami, marked the sixth consecutive defeat for Fran Brown and company. We knew it would be tough sledding after quarterback Steve Angeli’s season-ending injury in SU’s last win at Clemson, but little did we know the season would completely […]

Only two games left. This nightmare of a season will be over soon! Unfortunately, BC’s last home game will feature another ranked opponent in the Georgia Tech Yellowjackets. Be prepared for another bloodbath. Frankly, there’s not much more to be said about this disaster of a season. Who knows who will start at QB? At […]

Antwan Raymond was named the Doak Walker National Running Back of the Week after his 240-yard rushing performance against Maryland last Saturday. In the Scarlet Knights’ 35-20 win over the Terrapins, Raymond ran the ball 41 times for 240 yards and one touchdown while averaging 5.9 yards per carry. The Doak Walker Award is presented […]
We’re into November and while the current Orange don’t have a lot to play for, let’s look back at the former Orange on NFL rosters: Arizona Cardinals: Garrett Williams Williams made six tackles in the loss to Seattle. Atlanta Falcons: Matthew Bergeron Bergeron missed the game in Germany due to injury. He’s listed as week-to-week. […]
After a weekend of results that shake up the Mountain West championship race once again, we move on to Week 11 for the Mountain West and the rest of college football. Looking over at FanDuel’s opening odds can tell us a bit about what the oddsmakers think about this week’s slate of games. Since we cover the […]
The 2025 season has not gone as South Dakota State planned, at least not over the last month. After surging out to a 7-0 start, the Jackrabbits looked as though they were again going to be a shoo-in for the FCS playoffs and another top seed. Big wins over ranked Sacramento State and then Montana […]
It’s November 12th and Missouri’s most likely win occurs in three days when the Mississippi State Bulldogs come to down for Senior Night in Columbia. The remainder of Missouri’s schedule lays out thusly, with win probabilities added (and, it should be mentioned, not adjusted for the loss of Beau Pribula): So this is an important […]
Penn State is 3-6 on the season, with several heartbreaking losses during their current 6-game skid. But according to many advanced metrics, the Lions are actually a good (not great) team. In order to “guarantee” a bowl game, the Lions must go 6-6 on the season. Bowls are typically reserved for teams that have at […]
Happy Gump Day, one and all. Let’s dive into the Foosball this morning. It’s of the Debil. Better than morning coffee. The Alabama Crimson Tide checked in last night at No. 4 in the CFP rankings, mirroring its placement in both the AP and Coach’s polls. We had some words to say about that, and […]
Without much elaboration, Oklahoma’s offense was an abject disaster a year ago. The offensive coordinator was fired mid-season, and the starting QB, Jackson Arnold, transferred to Auburn only to get benched there, of all places. They were 97th in the league in scoring, only breaking 20 points against P4 opponents 4 times (and one of […]
Ohio State’s 2026 recruiting class is heating up in a big way. The Buckeyes have made several major moves recently, flipping multiple high-profile recruits from other programs and solidifying their standing among the nation’s elite. The most notable of those moves in my opinion came when four-star defensive lineman Emmanuel Ruffin flipped his commitment from […]
Last week we got the games we all deserved. Indiana at Penn State and Oregon at Iowa were classics. Amazing finishes from both the Hoosiers and Ducks to pull out last second wins when it looked like they were on the ropes. Then there was Washington laying a complete egg losing in the sleet to […]
Four-star running back Messiah Mickens, who’s battled through injury his senior season, had a solid game in Harrisburg’s (PA) PIAA 6A District III quarterfinal win over Central Dauphin (Harrisburg, PA). Mickens rushed for 58 yards on 11 carries and scored once in the 21-9 victory. He also added a 15-yard reception via a slick one-handed […]

Dabo Swinney has fired two coordinators in recent years, and he has spent a lot of money on replacements. Garrett Riley has made positive strides in his third year leading the offense, but the Clemson program probably didn’t expect Tom Allen to take long to get the defense back on track. Allen is coming off […]
