I sure hope in the future the College Football playoff or whoever is in charge of it eliminates these long gaps in between games. Tonight’s game could have been played this past Saturday at 1pm before the NFL playoffs.

Crazy. Looked it up wanted to see when the semifinals would be but cant find it for some reason. College football still my favorite sport but the little things about it seem to bother me more and more.

They're giving the teams time to prepare.

That I understand. But do they need more time to prepare for these games then they would for a game in November? Just seems like they are purposefully stretching it out towards the end.

Newsletter Tracking (through 1/19/2026)

The records here will reflect the lines listed in the newsletters at the time the plays were published. This is for the rated plays, the high-ranking plays, and any type of play worth tracking. There’s no reason to keep track of every bottom-tier or “recommended” play; it’s not worth the work.

Sometimes the newsletters will cheat a little by claiming a different common or later line if it turns a loss into a push or otherwise boosts their record. I’ll usually be able to note what happened to explain the discrepancy.

I’ll also highlight particularly good or bad weekends or short-term runs. I will not include picks from newsletter issues that we don’t get in time.

Starting to color-code the hottest and coldest records. Usually just anything hitting/missing around 70% or more with a reasonable sample.
