Everyone knows College football has the worst postseason of any sport across the globe. Despite there being no legitimate argument against a larger playoff bracket, college football has been stubborn for the entirety of its history. Every year we miss out on good team, star players and great storylines because of the ineptitude at the top of the sport. While many blue blood fans will argue against expansion for selfish reasons, there is no reason why we should not have a better postseason in college football and today, I want to talk about why and my thoughts, enjoy!

Cody Schrader may have the craziest story in college football. At one point, he had no offers to D1 schools and had to go to a division 2 program.

Its truly crazy and today, I want to talk about his story, how this happened and the rise of Cody Schrader, enjoy!

Today, I want to disgust this hire, what it means for Oregon State and its impact on Michigan State, enjoy!

Today, I break down the most average programs in CFB based on percentage and one team actually averages exaclty 6.5 victories per season, enjoy!

I honestly feel bad for Nebraska football. The Huskers used to be one of the most storied programs in all of college football, but they have now become the king of heartbreaking losses. After a 5-3 start, it looked like the Huskers were headed for a bowl game, but instead they imploded, lost all four games by one possession, and lost a heartbreaker to Iowa after Chubba Purdy threw away the season, literally. Let's talk about the Huskers, enjoy!

Typically, Alabama is the #1 team, has star players everywhere on the roster and they dominate every team they play. This year has been different as they struggled to find a QB, dropped a huge game at home, arent blowing anyone out and quietly are headed back to Atlanta for the SEC champiosnhip. But how did all this happen and did it really start last year? Today, I want to take a look at this weird Alabama team and go through the season, enjoy!

His name is Tate Rodemaker, but who is Tate, how did he get here and how good can he be?

There is no player who is more overrated in college football than Michigan quarterback JJ McCarthy. Despite not scoring a touchdown in the month of November, the QB is still projected to be a first round pick and is a legit Heisman contender to some. Today, I want to talk about JJ McCarthy, why people are so high on him and why he is also the most overrated player in the nation. This is not meant to bash his talent or potential but to just have an open talk about him being underwhelming.

At one time, Jarrett Guarantano was the #1 dual threat QB coming out of high school and was expected to save Tennessee football. Sadly despite being one of the top statistical QBs in Vols history, JG went down as a huge disapointemtn and was probably the most disappointing QB in the last few years for them. Today, I want to talk about the rise & fall of Jarrett Guarantano and talk about what happened to him, enjoy!

Kansas State was not always the solid program they are today, they used to be so bad that they were dubbed the worst program in college football, but Bill Synder built them up and made them great.

Today, I want to talk about the rise of Kansas State and how all this happened, enjoy!

At one time, Jayden Daniels was a super recruit who was going to take over the world at Arizona State. After a great freshman season, Daniels was a big time prospect and a future superstar.

But, in the last two years, Daniels has developed into a superstar for the Tigers, has had a historic 2023 season and is now the leader in the Heisman race, how did this happen?

After becoming the starter for NC State, MJ Morris played well and become a good quarterback, but then he quit.

Today, I want to talk about who MJ Morris is, why this decision is puzzling and how it could backfire in the future, enjoy!

Sadly, it never worked out at either Washington or Tulane for him so what happened? Today, we are going to talk about the rise & fall of Nick Montana, enjoy!

Historically, the Arizona Wildcats are not known as a football school and have not had a ton of success this century. After Rich Rodriguez and Kevin Sumlin flamed out, the Cats were in a dark spot and Jedd Fisch was left to pick up the pieces.

Despite being one of the few undefeated teams left in college football, James Madison will not be playing in either the Sun Belt Championship or a big time bowl game, why’s that?

We will talk about all of that plus what I think should happen for them in the future, enjoy!
