What’s The Point?

I'm frustrated. I'm angry. I'm upset. I'm *insert other synonyms here*. I'm at the point where I wish I didn't care about college football as much as I do.  The FBS level of college football has 130 teams, yet it actively ices out half of those teams from even having a chance to sniff a … Continue reading What’s The Point?

Albertsons Stadium peeked over the trees lining the … Continue reading A Personal Ode to College Football
