The Utah Utes come into the Rose Bowl as Pac-12 champions for the second straight season. Utah is hoping it avoids the same kind of wide-open Rose Bowl it faced last January, though.

After two weeks of enjoyable matinees, the marquee games of college football's 2022 bowl season are up next. Most importantly, of course, we have the College Football Playoff semifinals.

PASADENA, Calif. - Penn State's players, coach James Franklin and even the radio broadcast team of Steve Jones and Jack Ham wore white No. 34 jerseys as they arrived at the stadium Monday.

The college football regular season is in the books, and what a regular season it was.

It's the most wonderful time of year for a college football bettor, with…

Here's the thing about the college football season. Every week is crunch time for somebody, when defeat can feel like a blindside chop block. Moments of Truth.

Colorado made the biggest splash of the 2022-23 college football coaching carousel by hiring Deion Sanders from Jackson State as its next head coach. Coach Prime went 27-5 with the Tigers from 2020-22 and succeeded at raising the profile (and talent) of Jackson State. But going from the FCS to the Pac-12 is a significant jump for any coach. Also,…

Alabama is going to get one last look from the College Football Playoff selection committee. Whether the Crimson Tide deserves it is debatable, at best, but after both TCU (12-1) and Southern California (11-2) lost the committee has to at least talk about making Alabama (10-2) the first team with two losses to make the playoff. Tide coach Nick…

Didn't the college football regular season seem to go by all too quickly? It feels like only a couple weeks ago that I wrote my first column of the season. In the meantime, I went to eight games, all for my alma mater Arizona Wildcats and fortunately they exceeded my expectations this season. A 5-7 record with a win over their rivals, ASU, for the…

College football finally moves from the regular season to conference championship week after three-plus months of grueling action, and plenty remains on the line. Although Georgia and Michigan are shoo-ins for the College Football Playoff, the third and fourth spots could potentially be up for grabs with TCU and USC looking like the top contenders.…

Rivalry weekend was spoiled from the beginning as Ole Miss squandered away a game they easily could have won and our two totals ended up missing by just one score. Oh well! The regular season has come to a close and we sit with over a 5% return on my college football model's bets and you won't find me complaining about that figure. Sure, I wish we…

Following an offseason that again delivered a taste of conference realignment (USC and UCLA to the Big Ten in the future) and typical college football controversy (Nick Saban and Jimbo Fisher going at it over recruiting), time has come to concentrate on what's actually going to happen on the field throughout the 2022 season. There's no better way…

This is my favorite week in the whole college football season. The college football title games supplanted bowl season since football players have increasingly opted out of bowl games in recent years. Below, I'll handicap my favorite gambling looks in the Utah-USC, Kansas State-TCU, and Clemson-North Carolina conference championships. We are kind…
