It’s the most wonderful time of the year! How many years is ESPN going to run that same song? We’re going on about 15 years right now so who the heck knows how much longer it will go. But seriously, it IS the most wonderful time of the year. New Year’s Eve brings us our 2nd…
Forty bowls, and only three really matter. That’s the college football postseason in a nutshell. With the College Football Playoff coming to the end of its second year, we now get to enjoy a few more meaningful bowl games. Don’t get me wrong, I love bowl season. It extends college football for another month, but…
Everyone held serve on Championship Week to make for a boring weekend. I guess you could say Iowa didn’t hold serve but that game was essentially a play-in game so it doesn’t count. The week didn’t go without an upset though as Texas went in to Waco and took down the Bears. All Baylor had…
Sigh, it’s the final regular season week of the 2015 college football season, BUT it’s also the first week of the CFB postseason (in my book). Lots of bowl/College Football Playoff decisions will be made by the outcomes of Saturday’s championship contests. The games everyone will have their eyes on: Michigan St. vs. Iowa –…
Welcome to the final regular season edition of the Consensus. Is this still the regular season? Is it technically Championship Saturday? For our purposes, it’s the regular season. Due to the shortage of games, we get some players with big numbers in parentheses. We have four players that were picked ten times or more by…
Turkey and football. That was what my Thanksgiving weekend was full of and I bet yours was too. I believe I said last week that the Friday after Thanksgiving is probably my favorite college football day of the year. When I was growing up, it was always Nebraska vs Colorado and LSU vs Arkansas that…
Here we arrive at the final Saturday of the regular season. We have the Iron Bowl, the Egg Bowl and Bedlam along with in-state rivalry games in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Kentucky, Virginia and Kansas (‘Hawks and ‘Cats will resemble a pillow fight). Let’s not forget that Jim Harbaugh gets his first stab at Urban…
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope that you enjoyed your turkey and two blowouts in the NFL this afternoon. We have a logjam after the top-2 in our CFB Daily Overlay Scores. There are a total of six experts separated by .15 points. There will still be a lot of maneuvering among that group. Grading Friday and Saturday picks…
Ah, the good-ol’ Michael Geiger windmill. I think I heard somewhere that he windmilled 22 times…22 times! That kick put Sparty right back in the thick of the playoff race though so let the guy windmill. As a matter of fact, if Sparty wins out, they will likely be in. Winning out means a win…
If you are reading this, my daughter, Harper, has arrived. My wife and I are patiently waiting for discharge from the hospital. Due to the birth of my daughter and an oblong slate of games this weekend, the Power 5 will give you picks to use Friday and Saturday (Early only) on DraftKings. Not going…
We had another flip-flop at the top of our CFB Daily Overlay Scores again in Week Eleven. Rob O’Conner of venoDFS.com retook the lead that he had relinquished the week before. It’s a tight race at the top and it should go down to the wire between Rob and RotoGrinders’ EMAC. It was a dud of a week…
The end is near. No, not the world, as far as I know. But three things are nearing their finale. Sadly, the college football regular season. Monahan pregnancy Quite possibly DFS college sports We are nearing the biggest rivalry week of the year (next week) in the college football season. That’s also when my favorite holiday…
