College Football Rooting Interests: Week 11

We’re getting into crunch time of the 2016 college football season. We are down to only a few teams (if you read this week’s CFP Implications, you’d see there are only 14 left) who can make the Playoff and each only have a few games left. We can finally look at the concrete scenarios that […]

The Five Biggest Games the Rest of the Season

Breaking news: College football is almost over.

The 2016 season seems like it’s […]

SEC Power Rankings after week 10

After week six, I made an attempt at doing Power Rankings for the SEC. After ten weeks, the only things that hasn’t changed is that Alabama has been consistently great and Missouri has been consistently bad. Let’s take a look at the SEC Power rankings after week 10….. No. 14: Missouri Tigers (2-7, 0-5) Missouri’s […]

Alabama Crimson Tide beat LSU, strengthen grip on the No. 1 spot

The Alabama Crimson Tide defeated LSU 10-0 to strengthen their grip on the No. 1 ranking, and move one step closer to another SEC title. That’s not to say that Nick Saban’s squad was perfect. It wasn’t. The offense couldn’t seem to get anything going in the first half, totaling only 116 yards, while failing […]

Week 8 CFP Implications: First Big Upset of the Season

The main story that any Playoff discussion will begin with this week is Ohio State’s loss to Penn State. The Buckeyes had major special teams issues and did not look good at all for much of the game, even if they controlled most of it. It ended in a loss, though, which will prompt much […]

SEC Football: What we learned from week 8

Three Top 25 vs Top 25 matchups were on the SEC slate this week. None of them turned out to be nail biters, but we learned a lot from each game. If you read my piece on the “Most Overrated Teams in the Top 25” last week, this will also be known as the apology […]

Alabama rolls over Texas A&M in second half, stays unbeaten

Alabama found themselves down in a football game for a change, and they decidedly didn’t care much for the feeling. After TAMU wide receiver Christian Kirk hauled in a Trevor Knight pass to make it 14-13, Aggies, the Crimson Tide went on a 20-point roll that’d not only (obviously) save their season, but one that […]

Watch: Alabama blows up hand-off; scores TD on fumble return

This play didn’t go like Texas A&M drew it up. It started with a slightly high snap. Then as the Aggies made the hand-off, Alabama LB Ryan Anderson was right there to blow it up. Bama defensive lineman Jonathan Allen picked the ball up and rumbled into the end zone. Ryan Anderson makes the play […]

Week 7 CFP Implications: Extreme Separation at the Top

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 […]

SEC Football: What we learned from week seven

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.
