Chip Kelly was wildly successful as a college football head coach. At Oregon, he went 46-7 including a 33-3 record in the Pac-12 Conference. The NFL has been a different story. In Philadelphia, he went 26-21 including a 6-9 third season that led to his departure. In San Francisco, he’s been unable to get his […]

Ordinarily, I’d open up the week with a “5 Things We Learned About ACC Football” piece to discuss what transpired on the gridiron over the weekend. However, last week’s results showed that the league is one of the deepest in college football. Unlike some other conferences, there’s no such thing as an off week in […]

No, the title of this post is not just referring to Alabama. Most analysts and pundits right now think that Alabama is head and shoulders above everyone else in college football right now. And, that very well may be true. But, the top spot usually finds ways to work itself out. Even if Alabama runs […]

Sometimes, voters base too much on what happened during the last week or on the teams record without really digging into their schedule. Here’s a look at the five teams that […]

In any professional relationship in life, business will always try to do better if they can. “Better” isn’t just a one-off in terms of talent. Does someone else have more talent? Okay. Do they fit in with the culture you have set? Do they cost more/less? Do they have a higher ceiling? All those things […]

Four conference games were on tap, including a Top 10 and a Top 25 match-up, and Mississippi State headed out west to face a stingy opponent.

For the past six weeks, I have written a “what we learned” bit about the Big 12. After six weeks of learning things, I’m pretty sure we know a good amount about the conference. Now it’s time for us to rank the teams. As a real “power ranking,” my goal will be to focus much […]

Week 7 was certainly an exciting one, with many games going right down to the wire. Here are a three random takeaways from this weekend’s action on the gridiron. 1.

In a game that had the feel of some sort of Big Ten semi-final tilt if there was such a thing, Ohio State outlasted Wisconsin in Camp Randall in overtime, 30-23. It could be a preview of the actual Big Ten Championship Game, but that’ll take some doing on both sides. At any rate, we […]
