Week 3 Recap That was certainly an interesting Week 3. There wasn’t as much pure chaos as the previous weeks, but in the midst of the one-sided smack-downs and near upsets, a few gems shone through. The Florida teams (excluding Miami) are in a rough spot, Georgia finally looks mortal, Arch Manning made everyone over the age of 21 feel old, and the Big 12 … Continue reading College Football 2024 Week 4 Preview: Time to Get Serious
Week 2 Recap Week 2 of the 2024 season followed the example of Week 1, with more than a few ranked teams struggling against weaker (on paper) opponents, with a few upsets (looking at you Notre Dame), and ridiculous offensive numbers sprinkled in.

Top Storylines College football is back in Dublin with some ACC action and a few FCS/Group of Five games round out this fun appetizer for the 2024 season.

With all that said, let’s … Continue reading College Football 2024 Week Zero: Top Storylines and Matchups
