Just Picks, no more, no less
I didn’t have the time or energy to do a preview piece this week. That’s on me. But, I do still want to put out game picks for the week to be consistent on that front. This is a super short article that is really...
Was That The Real Badgers? Am I Actually Scared of Northwestern?
So I guess the Badgers are actually bad. How can a team that hung with Ohio State till the 4th quarter get beat by the worst team in the Big Ten.
The short answer: Injuries and Coaching.
The coaching part...
The Last Bedlam, SEC division races, Pac-12 Quarterback Showdown.
This is the Big 12’s week to shine. The top 6 teams in the conference all play each other, and 5 of the 6 only have 1 conference loss so far. Who is going to the Big 12 title game is likely...
Mistakes and Bad Luck Against OSU. Some Michigan Thoughts. I Pity Wisconsin’s next Opponent.
This is a weird Wisco Wednesday piece if I’m being honest. The meat is in the middle where I look at what’s going on around the rest of the B1G. I don’t have as many thoughts...
A Pac-12 Elimination Game, A Possible Upset in the Big 12, and An ACC Matchup with Title Implications.

A Resilient Road Comeback. An OG Braelon Performance. Madison’s Super Bowl Saturday.

I have some short explanations for my picks in groups of 5 from 1 to 25. Then, at the bottom, I have the top 40 all in one list with the AP rankings in parentheses. As usual...
The 1st B1G game, The 3rd Saturday in Oct., and what’s good in the other Conferences.
Week 8 of College football is here. We are well past the halfway point and getting into the meat of conference schedules. With conference play dominating the schedule in week 8, I decided that is...
Mordecai went down. The defense gave up only 13, but the offense couldn’t score. Wisconsin is way behind schedule in Fickell’s year 1.
Fickell’s first season as HC had 1 very clear and attainable goal. Win the division in the last year of its existence, and build on that success...
