The Vanderbilt football program is entering a massive game this Saturday, with the potential for a program-defining win against Alabama in Tuscaloosa. The Commodores visit Alabama in a rematch of one of the biggest upsets of the 2024 season, when Vanderbilt shocked the Crimson Tide. Alabama will be ready for this rematch, but the Commodores […]

The 2025 BYU football team has started the season playing well and is coming off a very close win against Colorado on the road in Boulder, where they won 24-21. The 2025 Colorado football team has struggled in comparison, but was right there with the Cougars. Despite the excitement of the game, it was overshadowed […]

So far, the 2025 Ole Miss football team is playing much better than last year’s despite having less talent on its roster. That speaks to Lane Kiffin and how much he has evolved as a head coach and has become one of the better coaches in college football. With uncertainty surrounding Billy Napier at Florida, […]

The 2025 Clemson football team is probably the most disappointing in college football. This defense was loaded, and this offense was also littered with talent, highlighted by Cade Klubnik under center. He got all of the spotlight in the preseason, but so far, he has not looked great and has been one of the reasons […]

The 2025 Notre Dame football season has gotten off to a slow start, but they have won two straight games, the most recent being a massive blowout win against Arkansas on the road. The Fighting Irish beat the Razorbacks easily, 56-13, and they were still trying to score despite being up early in this game. […]

The expectations surrounding the 2025 Oregon football team were not as high comparatively because the Ducks lost a lot of talent from last season. However, Oregon has remained dominant, primarily due to how seamlessly Dante Moore has fit into the Oregon offense, especially after the previous game against Penn State. The rest of the supporting […]

The 2025 Penn State football team was loaded with talent. On paper, this team is one of the best in the country, but there are still issues. Their loss to the Oregon Ducks at home in the White Out highlighted those issues. They tried to return and brought the game into overtime, but it was […]

The 2025 Arkansas football season has gotten off to an awful start. They are 2-3 and have lost three straight games. The first two losses came to Ole Miss and Memphis heartbreakingly, but the nail in the coffin came when Notre Dame entered Arkansas and blew out the Razorbacks this past Saturday, which resulted in […]

The 2025 LSU football season really gets started this week against Ole Miss. The Tigers have played well through four games and come into this game at 4-0. The Tigers need to do more on offense, especially if they want to go toe-to-toe with an Ole Miss offense that feels completely rejuvenated thanks to Trinidad […]

The 2025 NFL season has started awfully for the Houston Texans. They are 0-3 after losing to the Los Angeles Rams, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and the Jacksonville Jaguars. The offense has been awful, but DeMeco Ryans isn’t blaming anyone yet. They need all hands on deck to get back on track and win this […]

The 2025 LSU football season has started well. The Tigers’ most significant improvement has been their defense’s performance compared to the offense. This game against Ole Miss represents the biggest challenge for the defense yet, based on how Ole Miss’s offense has been playing coming into this game, led by breakout star Trinidad Chambliss. The […]

The 2025 Ole Miss football team has gone through a change at quarterback. Trinidad Chambliss is taking over the reins under center for the Rebels in place of Austin Simmons. Lane Kiffin initially said that Simmons would start if he were healthy, but this decision also gives Ole Miss the best chance to beat LSU […]

The 2025 season ramps up this week for the Oregon football program, with a trip to Penn State on the horizon in what is easily their biggest game of the year. Oregon has looked extremely impressive up to this point in the year, but it’s an entirely different beast to go on the road and […]

The 2025 Notre Dame football team has struggled to find much success this season on the field. They are 1-2, and this defense has been awful. They have talent on this defense, but something has not clicked. It is good that they are recruiting so well because this season has been disappointing. This defense needs […]

The 2025 Oklahoma football season has been great, primarily because of John Mateer at quarterback. Mateer has completely re-energized this offense, catapulting him into the Heisman Trophy conversation. The Sooners are undefeated at 4-0, but Mateer injured his hand in their last game, a win against Auburn, leaving some questions about Oklahoma as a contender. […]

The Ohio State football program goes on the road for the first time this year against the Washington Huskies. The Huskies have started the year undefeated and have an electric offense led by Demond Williams Jr. under center. The noise in Husky Stadium will be the most significant factor in the game for Ohio State, […]

The 2024 College Football Playoff was the first time that the playoff expanded to 12 teams, and by all accounts, it seemed like a success. However, some people had issues, and after those complaints, they fixed some things. The biggest complaints about what the College Football Playoff got right and what it got wrong mainly […]

The 2025 Washington football Huskies have started the year playing well, but the schedule ramps up this week with Ohio State visiting Seattle. The Huskies are undefeated with a 3-0 record, but the top-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes are a massive leap from the teams they played previously. However, if the Huskies beat the Buckeyes, they […]

The 2025 Georgia football team started the season a little slow, but they are coming off a massive win against Tennessee, which announced to the rest of college football that they are not going anywhere. Still, some issues have popped up for the Bulldogs, namely, the defense has not been up to par compared to […]

There has not been a more dominant team to start the 2025 season than the Oregon football team. The Ducks have epitomized dominance through the early part of the season. This week’s game against Penn State is massive and is the best opportunity for the Ducks to prove that they belong as one of the […]

The 2025 USC football season has gotten off to a great start. The Trojans are 4-0 and have looked downright dominant in each game. They started the year scoring 73 points, and this offense has been a massive reason for their success. They missed Ja’Kobi Lane in their last game in the receiving corps, but […]

The 2025 season has started exceptionally well for the Miami football program. They are undefeated with a 4-0 record and have a lot of talent across the board, from this loaded offense with Carson Beck as a Heisman Trophy candidate to how much this defense has improved so far this year. Mario Cristobal’s goal is […]

The 2025 season has been awful for the Oklahoma State football program. The Cowboys did not look great in their season-opening win against UT Martin, followed that up with a blowout loss to Oregon, and then a loss at home to Tulsa. That lifelessness contributed to why Oklahoma State fired Mike Gundy in the middle […]

The 2025 season has started exceptionally well for the Texas A&M football program. The Aggies are undefeated and coming off a bye week after a crazy win against Notre Dame on the road the week before. They are getting ready for SEC play with their conference opener against Auburn. The key in the game will […]

Every power conference in college football has officially announced that it will add a ninth game to its schedule. The SEC finalized the decision, and not far behind, the ACC announced that it was moving to that schedule. The ACC had more logistical hurdles in front of them due to having 17 teams in the […]

The 2025 Florida football season has gotten off to a disastrous start for the Gators. They had bigger expectations after the way they finished last season, but they look even worse this year. Billy Napier has been feeling the heat as head coach, and it also does not help that DJ Lagway has not looked […]

The 2025 season has been nothing short of a disaster for the Oklahoma State football program through three games. The Cowboys are 1-2 through three games, but they have looked awful in those games. Gundy completely reworked his staff and re-negotiated his contract for a lesser buyout, which would have been more friendly to the […]

The Chicago Bears finally got into the win column in Week 3 after beating the Dallas Cowboys at home, 31-14. It was an excellent game for the Bears to finally show up after how they looked in their first two games. Caleb Williams also had a great game and finally looked comfortable in Ben Johnson’s […]

The 2025 Oregon football team has been one of the best in the country. They are completely dominating their competition, and the biggest reason why has been how well Dan Lanning has been recruiting ever since he got to Eugene. They have been so good at recruiting that they should be able to weather the […]

The 2025 Kentucky football team looked very inconsistent at the start of the season. After two weeks, they have already switched quarterbacks. Kentucky’s issue has been trying to find any consistency on offense, and it’s not a good sign that they switched quarterbacks already. It is why they are desperately waiting for Matt Ponatoski to […]

The Dallas Cowboys have been desperate for help on defense. They traded away their best defender, Micah Parsons, to the Green Bay Packers and have been desperate for any replacement. They tried to reinforce their pass rush by signing Jadeveon Clowney, but after signing Clowney, it has come to light that he was arrested for […]

The Denver Broncos visit the Los Angeles Chargers this weekend in a massive game for the AFC West. It is also a revenge game for former Chargers and now Broncos running back JK Dobbins. He gets his chance at a revenge game for the first time this season. This comes after Dobbins left the Chargers […]

The 2025 Vanderbilt football team has played well this season and built on last year’s momentum. Diego Pavia’s leadership is key to the Commodores’ success. Pavia is a warrior who has carried the Commodores over the previous two seasons. Head coach Clark Lea has the utmost confidence in Pavia and has repeatedly said he has […]

The 2025 Oregon football team has arguably been the country’s most dominant college football team this year. They have torn teams apart in three games this season. The way that Oregon has played so far this year has led many to think that they are one of the best teams in the country. Everything about […]

The biggest key for the 2025 Oklahoma football team is that the offense has been completely remade, thanks to Ben Arbuckle as offensive coordinator and transfer portal quarterback John Mateer under center. Mateer had massive expectations to start the year, and he has met those so far, but is on pace to exceed them. His […]

The 2025 Washington football team has a lot of talent and could become one of the bigger surprise teams in college football this year. The Huskies play Washington State this weekend in the latest addition of the Apple Cup, but then they open Big Ten play against Ohio State next week. If they want to […]

The 2025 Nebraska football team has been solid to start the season. They are 3-0 and come into Week Four with a massive game against Michigan looming.

The 2025 USC football team has started the season playing great football. They are undefeated with a 3-0 record and are getting ready to face Michigan State at home on Saturday night in a game that could send a message to the rest of the Big Ten. The Spartans are also 3-0 but face a […]

The UCLA football job was among the first college jobs to open this season. The administration fired DeShaun Foster after a 0-3 start to the year. The Bruins are desperate for someone to jumpstart that program because fan support has fallen off a cliff, with barely anyone showing up to support them when they play […]
