We’ve reached double digits folks. We now have only five weeks of the regular season left. Time is quickly running out, as is my time to complete that garbage truck Halloween costume I mentioned last week. Thank goodness my two oldest kids went for ready-made, easy to find in the store options. There’s no way […]

Well, not quite — but let’s be honest — it’s a long shot entering their final four games of the regular season. There’s still a lot to play for, however. Three-straight 10-win […]

I was tantalizingly close to a perfect week ATS last week. My two losses came via a backdoor cover by Michigan State on a TD with seven seconds to go and Northwestern covering by half of a point against Nebraska (seven point loss and a 7.5 point spread). Nonetheless, I’m back to .500 for the […]
Louisville started the second half with an opportunity to extend the lead and run away with the game, but turnovers became an issue. The Cards’ defense also stepped up to keep BC at arm’s length. Let’s look at some of the plays from the third quarter. Isaac Brown has a fumbling issue, but I’m actually […]
The Wisconsin Badgers edged past the UW-Platteville Pioneers 69-53 in their second exhibition game on Wednesday evening, using a late run to complete the victory. It was a much different game than the one Wisconsin played last Friday against the Oklahoma Sooners, as the Badgers struggled offensively for much of the first half and looked […]
October is in the books. Texas A&M is still unbeaten and the team to beat, Alabama survived their closest conference shave yet, and three teams at the bottom are still looking for their first league win.

Exhale. After several emotional comeback victories, while staring defeat dead in the face in a handful of scenarios, BYU is 8-0. And now they get a bye week. Yes, the Cougars are technically perfect after winning their 10th game in a row, dating back to last year’s Houston game and are now 5-0 in Big […]
Well, another rough week in a tough season continues, as I went 3-7 last week. Cal missing a game winning field goal at +6.5 only to lose by 8 in overtime pretty much speaks to how the season has gone. But on we move, and there are some fun ones to pick this weekend. As […]
The regional nightmare which ensnared three of Michigan’s FBS programs together in infamy seems to be reaching its conclusion. On Thursday afternoon, the NCAA Committee of Infractions released their report on Central Michigan’s involvement in the ever-evolving Connor Stalions case, finding four of CMU’s former football staffers responsible in part for obstructing the investigation and […]
Last week ATS: 7-8 (4-4 National, 3-4 B1G) Season ATS: 81-77 (33-40 National, 48-37 B1G) So far this year it has felt like we’ll have one big weekend a month and the rest of the time we are either a game above or below .500. It’s hard to get mad about since our season record […]
With five games left in the regular season, Arizona needs to win at least two of them in order to become bowl eligible. The first opportunity comes Saturday at Colorado. The Buffaloes (3-5, 1-4 Big 12) just lost 53-7 at Utah last weekend but at home are 3-2 with the losses by one score each […]
This defense gives me a bigger migraine than trying to explain to Hawk fans that they aren’t that good. One play we look like a defense that won’t allow a single yard by ground or air, then we look away for two seconds, and our secondary has a coverage lapse that even Uncle Rico could […]
8-0, you are oh so sweet. Last week, we inched closer to Charlotte with a convincing win over a struggling Syracuse team. There is not much time to celebrate, however, because we head back on the road to play the NC State Wolfpack. Quarterback CJ Bailey gave us trouble last year, as he is a […]
