Sorry about no postings last week folks. We had a death in the family and it took a lot of time to get sorted out, so I just decided to let the week go, rather than rush through something that would be half done.
Weeks four and five certainly gave us more surprises and more things [...]

Week 4 Analysis and Predictions
Posted in Sports on September 23, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Here are your week 4 round up and predictions!
#1 Florida (3-0) at Kentucky (2-0)
The Gators have been hit with the flu-bug this week causing key people to miss practices. Urban Meyer is downplaying it but it’s a real issue among teams right now. Last year Florida trounced the Wildcats 63-5, but this is a better [...]
Week 3 Results – A Few Upsets.
Posted in Sports on September 20, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Week three saw a few upsets, but to be honest, it’s still early in the season to be thinking that they could make that much difference.
Both USC and BYU went down this week, but those of you that following college football know that it’s not real unusual to see USC lose to a Pac-10 opponent [...]
Week 3: A Few Hits but Mostly Quiet
Posted in Sports, tagged college football, NCAA College Football, predictions on September 16, 2009 | 2 Comments »
For some, the season starts in earnest this week, as several top 25 teams begin conference play. Still, most of these match-ups aren’t particularly interesting. But a couple of games could tell the difference in how early conference races may shape up.
Here is our week 3 analysis and predictions:
#1 Florida (2-0) hosts Tennessee (1-1).

The Marquee game of the week was USC and Ohio State and it didn’t disappoint. The game turned out to be much more of a defensive affair than anyone thought, but USC put together an outstanding drive at the end of the game to pull the victory. They did show, however, that they are mortal [...]
Week 2: Analysis and Predictions
Posted in Sports, tagged college football, predictions on September 9, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Not much to get too excited about in Week 2. An early season showdown will pit USC and Ohio State in Columbus, but plenty of time for either team to falter or recover no matter what the result. LSU- Vanderbilt could be interesting seeing that LSU wasn’t exactly convincing in their opening game. Georgia-Tech- Clemson [...]

Week one of the 2009 campaign, resulted in a few interesting turns of events, but it was largely punctuated by predictable wins (even predictable upsets), terrible officiating and some really bad broadcasting. I’m not sure if I’m just getting more critical in my old age, but my goodness, if you work for someone like ESPN [...]

As we alluded earlier this week, the 12th week games showed many teams either resting or playing under-achievers. While there were some lackadaisical performances, there were few things to get excited about. As per usual, the bottom tier teams jostled around a bit, but overall, not much has changed. But whoa boy wait till next [...]
Week 12: Games and Predictions
Posted in Sports on November 13, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
There will be a bit of a quiet knell in College Football as many teams have either played their pivotal games, or are off for the week. There is only one Top 25 match-up this week in fact, Florida v. South Carolina.
It’s very hard for young men to keep their eyes on the prize this [...]
Week 11 Results and Analysis
Posted in Sports on November 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Perhaps the 2008 campaign will prove out to be vastly different from the 2007 campaign, in that, for the most part, the top 10 pretty much did its job this week, with only one upset. This differs quite drastically from last year when each week was a nightmare for someone in the top 5!
The lone [...]
