Another SMU 9+ win season proves Rhett Lashlee is one of best coaches in America.

It got a little shaky at times in the Holiday Bowl, but after going up 24-0 on #17 9-3 Arizona, SMU won 24-20, completing another 9+ win season at SMU. That makes 3 straight seasons SMU has won 9 or more games. When you do that in the American conference, that’s good. When you do …

Wake Forest finishes remarkable 9 win season in Jake Dickert’s first year.

Friday night, Wake Forest closed out what can only be described as a truly remarkable 9 win season by beating Mississippi State in the Duke Mayo’s Bowl 43-29. Going into the game Wake Forest was an underdog to a 5-7 Bulldog team. Mississippi State was a bad team, from a very pedestrian SEC. I don’t …

What the playoff rankings and teams should have looked like.

With the context of actual game play, several things that most keen football fans and observers knew already were validated by the results. It’s a shame the CFP Committee was force-fed to include the wrong teams based on brands and conference affiliation. This is what the CFP ended up doing. Indiana (13-0) Ohio State (12-1) …

The Miami Hurricanes are blowing up P2 CFP Football Narratives.

For the last 2 years, any variation of the future College Football Playoffs heavily favored the SEC and the Big 10. SEC commissioner Greg Sankey and Big 10 commissioner Tony Pettiti were creating a P2 that marginalized the Big 12, ACC, the G5 to such an extent that there was even a discussion of just …

Other ACC teams talk physical play – Virginia meant it and won 11 games.

Almost every coach in the ACC talks about their teams being physical. They all want to be physical and tough. There’s no question about it, but how many truly do what it takes to get that way on both sides of the ball? Virginia head coach Tony Elliot did. He had a vision from the …

A 9 win 2025 – Foundational or empty season for Georgia Tech?

At the beginning of the year, I would have said a 9-win season was near the ceiling of Georgia Tech. When you start the season 8-0 though expectations change. Georgia Tech lost 4 of its last 5, and it feels like several attainable goals got away. The question is, did Georgia Tech have a foundational …

Season and bowl loss signals Clemson could be years away from being relevant.

Dabo Swinney is an unabashed optimist, but at some point, reality has to set in for Dabo. Clemson might be years away from being relevant on the national scene again. Saturday was just more evidence of that. At Saturday’s Pinstripe Bowl, depleted Penn State beat Clemson 22-10. In fairness, Clemson was down nearly 30 players, …

Pitt with another disappointing season finish after listless bowl loss.

Something is broken with the Pittsburgh program. When the calendar turns to November, Pittsburgh largely calls it a season. After November 1, Pitt in 3 years has won 2 games. In 2023, Pitt had 3 double-digit losses in 4 games to finish the year 3-9. In 2024, Pitt started the year 7-6, then lost a …

Rollercoaster bowl loss is exactly who Cal is right now.

Cal suffered an ugly 35-31 loss in the Hawaii Bowl to Hawaii in a game they led 21-0. The loss was frustrating for Cal fans, but maybe it shouldn’t have been. If there is one thing that is consistent about Cal, it’s their inconsistency over the last several years. That’s who they currently are. They …

The ACC’s most consistent winner Louisville, has another 9+ win season after bowl win.

Quick, which ACC Football program has won at least 9 games every season since 2023? Hint, it’s not Clemson, they won’t win more than 8 this year. It’s not Miami; they won 7 games in 2023. Florida State? NC State? SMU – well, they’ve only been in the ACC two years. Anybody else? Nope. We’re …
