What We Learned In Week Seven of the Group of Five

That's right people, I've had enough of parsing out six different articles each week going one conference at a time. Ain't nobody got time for that. Instead, we'll just roll with one nice long article that hits all the high points. Ready set go! American Athletic Conference USF is probably more lucky than good. They …

Best Uniforms from Week 4

Note from the author: if the photos within the article don't work, use the links provided in the text. Or trust my descriptions, it's up to you. College football's insanity continues.

What We Learned From Week Four in the Mountain West Conference

Nevada’s defense might have some issues Yes, it's true, they have a very dynamic quarterback in Ty Gangi who can make things happen, and the Wolfpack aren't necessarily afraid to get into a shootout.

Best Uniforms from Week 3

What an insane week in college football. #6 Wisconsin was taken down by BYU. Akron gets their first win vs a Big Ten team since the 1800's with a win over Northwestern.

What We Learned About the Mountain West Conferencein Week Three

Week Zero of College Football Was More Surprising Than We Expected

OK, fine. Maybe by "we" I mean "I". Or maybe you expected Hawai'i or Rice to play the way they did? Yesterday sure started off predictable, at least. As I mentioned in the short preview, this marked the first time in seven years that UMass won their home opener and it was their first opening-game …

Hello College Football, So Good to See You Again!

We have finally arrived. Our long, national football-less nightmare is over and real live college football is back on the docket for the day. Let's take a look at our football menu, shall we? Appetizer: Duquesne at UMass, 5:30 ET This should be a pretty light fare. Duquesne and UMass both had fairly middling seasons …

Film Sesh: Week One of FBS Bowling

Hey folks, it's bowl game time. For any G5 fan, this usually means having your team play somewhere out in the Midwest or in Florida as one of the only games on that night. Maybe you play a Power 5 team and knock their block off, like Boise State did against Oregon in the Las …
