If you were to look at these two programs on Sept, 10, 2022, you would think the Buffalo Bulls and Georgia Southern Eagles were on very different trajectories. The Bulls hosted Holly Cross for a classic "cupcake" game to get a win on the board early in the season, while. The Eagles were on the road in Lincoln to play the Nebraska Cornhuskers.…

College sports leaders have spent more than a year reviewing the calendar, and where everything fits in it, to best accommodate the oft-conflicting pursuits of athletic excellence, academic credibility, athlete well-being and piles of cash. It's a well-meaning endeavor, but it's missing one obvious fix: Get rid of the December football signing…

In 2022, Tulane finished the season 11-2, a near inverse of a miserable 2-10 campaign from a season ago. USC had its eyes on the College Football Playoff before faltering in the Pac-12 championship game against Utah. But the Cotton Bowl is a healthy postseason destination for the Trojans to cap off Lincoln Riley's first season on the West…

We've made it to the end of the 2022 college football regular season. If you've been following along with our staff picks, you know that Alan Cole has pretty much gone wire-to-wire in the straight-up category.

Can you believe it? December - and Conference Championship Week - is already here. That also means it's my final Triple Option of 2022. So, with the college football season winding down and the holiday season just around the corner, what could be a better gift than a play on each and every one of this weekend's 10 conference championship…

Once the college football coaching carousel starts spinning, it's difficult to handicap the effect that has on players. There are final scores at this time of the season that look curious upon first glance but make more sense with the benefit of hindsight once the coach leaves for another school. For example, last season news leaked that Southern…

Since the USMNT tied England on Friday in the FIFA World Cup, I guess my picks decided the record for the week should end even. Honestly though, after watching the Ohio State debacle on Saturday, a 7-7-1 record feels like a win. One more week to try and get as close to even as possible before bowl season. (All lines courtesy of Draftkings…

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.

Conference championship week has arrived, which means we have our smallest college football betting card since way back in Week 0 when I could go outside without a coat on. Sort of sad, isn't it? What isn't sad is a 2-2 record in the final week of the regular season, which is just fine this late in the game as lines get sharper. While conference…

Not many gave it a second thought when Texas A&M entered the season ranked No. 6 in the preseason AP Top 25. Sure, it was rare leap for a team that finished unranked the season prior, but coming off compiling the No. 1 recruiting class of all time and with three new additions in the quarterback room, some viewed the Aggies as a dark horse College…

These final weeks are crucial in laying out the College Football Playoff and Conference title picture, and the biggest game on this slate has major implications for both.

Last week ATS: 7-5 (3-2 B1G, 4-3 National) Season ATS: 64-72-3 (31-36-1 B1G, 33-35-2 National) It was great to pull a couple games back last week. There were a few that left a sour taste in my mouth, though. Michigan won by 22 when they were a 23-point favorite, and Texas A&M lost by three when they were a 2.5-point underdog. Ohio State was also…
