With the regular season now officially complete, many players are looking to get out of dodge and get to a new location by the start of spring ball, and because of it transfers are coming fast and furious. Included, […]

So your favorite team made a bowl game- because well just about every team that should be playing at the FBS level makes a bowl game these days- and you want to go. Good, because you should go and enjoy yourself. Since I’ve been to quite a few bowl games, and will be going to […]

Our final Crystal Ball Run conference championship preview isn’t technically a conference championship preview at all. Ok, well it is, since the winner of Saturday night’s Oklahoma-Oklahoma State game will earn the Big XII’s automatic berth. Still, it’s not technically a conference championship game either. Catch my drift? No? Ok, let’s just move on then. […]

Following their demolishing of UCLA in the first ever Pac-12 title game, the greatest compliment you can give Oregon coach Chip Kelly and his program is this: Nobody is surprised. Not by the ease of the Ducks 49-31 beat down of UCLA at Autzen Stadium Friday night. Not by their second Rose Bowl in three […]

I’m back with part two and the final four games of the second round of the FCS playoff bracket. The bottom half of this bracket is arguably tougher than the top half. It has former champions in Georgia Southern, and Appalachian State. It has upstart programs like Old Dominion and new comers to the post […]

Think you’ve got to wait until the BCS National Championship Game to get a much-unwanted re-match between two top teams? Think again, as both the Big Ten Championship Game (discussed later on today at Crystal Ball Run) and ACC Championship Game are both rematches from early season games. Still, if you think Clemson’s 23-3 win […]

Simply put, there wasn’t a more infuriating, frustrating and overall disappointing team in all of college football this year than the Texas A&M Aggies. A club which started the year ranked by some in the Top 10 and as a dark horse to win the Big XII, finished just 6-6. Because of it, change had […]

With Championship Weekend starting early this year, we decided to give you a little “Dirty Dozen” preview on all the biggest games. First up, the first ever Pac-12 Championship Game, a game which will go down in the history books for a lot of things… unfortunately none of which are expected to involve compeitive collegiate […]

You can think of the Division III playoffs right now the same way we think of the NCAA Tournament every March. We are going into the Elite Eight this weekend, and literally every team left could potentially pull the upset and win this year’s Stagg Bowl. In fact I see one of those upsets happening […]
