The biggest game in the American Athletic Conference was thought to be Thursday night’s scrap between Cincinnati and Memphis at the Liberty Bowl. Make no mistake: It’s still a huge game with major conference ramifications. Due to the nature of the beast that is college football, however, the game isn’t quite the epic clash and […]

It’s Wednesday, which means it’s time to unveil this week’s Group of Five Power Poll. Thanks to a few upsets, the top seven looks much different than it did last Wednesday. Please remember that the rankings are fluid and can (and often will) change from week to week. With that disclaimer out of the way, […]

The Pac-12 was shaken up during last week’s slate of college football games, as preseason conference favorite USC suffered a surprising 41-31 loss to Stanford at the Coliseum. Stanford, whose demise was certain after a Week 1 loss to Northwestern, is back atop the Pac-12 North standings. The other close contest was UCLA eeking out […]

The Kentucky Wildcats were on the verge of staging a coming-out party… but they fell short last Saturday night against a Florida offense which is clearly quite limited. The Tennessee Volunteers were also close to achieving a breakthrough a few weeks ago against Oklahoma… but a dropped pass early in the third quarter — one […]

For decades the Miami program has been a model of consistent winning, followed by cycles of disaster and rebuild. The current rebuild under Al Golden is now four weeks into a fifth season. In that span, Golden has been over .500 only twice, but has ended the regular season exactly at .500 in the other […]

It is only September. Time and opportunity both exist for a few teams in the Group of Five conferences to make a run at a New Year’s Six bowl. However, if you have already taken the time to peruse results and standings after week three, you’ll notice something unsettling if you’re partial to the little […]

While Bret Bielema continues to dig deeper in the asteroid crater he has already carved into the earth, you have to give him one thing: he keeps being himself. For about the 75th time this season, Bielema’s mouth has bitten off more than it can chew after Saturday’s home loss to a marginal Big 12 […]

The SEC West and the Pac-12 South — these were the two best divisions in the two best conferences last season. Ohio State and Michigan State, from the same Big Ten division, both occupied the season-ending (post-bowl) top five last January, but in terms of a top-to-bottom division, the SEC West and Pac-12 South stood […]

It’s widely regarded as the most important position on the field, but the early parts of 2015 are showing that long-term stability at quarterback isn’t as vital as it once was. Eight of this week’s top 15 teams, according to the AP Poll, are being led either by a backup or a transfer quarterback. That […]

The reality of September volatility cannot be underscored enough in college football. The Ohio State team you saw in September of 2014 was nothing close to the team you saw in December and January. The Texas A&M team you saw on opening night in 2014 was nothing close to the team witnessed in October, just […]

September is always the month in which college football seasons need to be given time to settle. New players, new quarterbacks, new coordinators, new head coaches, new competitive dynamics in various divisions and conferences — flux is the constant, unpredictability is what’s predictable. September is the month in which the most volatile results of a […]
