Pat Hill Is A Quality Hire As The Falcons New Offensive Line Coach
As Jason reported yesterday, the Falcons have added a new offensive line coach. It was probably not who you expected. Pat Hill has been the head coach of Fresno State for the last 15 years, and was just let go after the 2011 season. Over that time, he's guided the team to an above .500 record...
Don't Bet On It!: College Football Predictions Around the SEC
My 6-0 record in the SEC portion of last week’s college football picks left me with a 28-6 mark in conference predictions for the season as a whole. This might lead you to believe that I have some idea what I am doing as a gridiron forecaster, but the wiser course would be for you to assume that I...
Roll On: Previewing the Fresno State Defense
Excepting the mysterious Presbyterian Blue Hose, I’m fully anticipating that the Bulldogs will be the most difficult team to preview this year. FSU is an entirely unfamiliar opponent with zero 2011 games available for insight and study. What are we left with? Trying to decide if 2010...
Don't Bet On It!: Labor Day Weekend College Football Predictions for the National Games of Interest
By now, you have seen, and likely scoffed at, my Labor Day weekend SEC college football predictions. If so, please prepare to laugh uproariously at my picks for the national games of interest, with respect to which my innate provincialism renders me even more ignorant and, hence, less likely to...

Don't Bet On It!: 2010-2011 College Football Bowl Predictions (Part I)
My predictions for championship Saturday fared badly indeed; I correctly called the SEC Championship Game to improve my league ledger for the season to 53-13, but my 1-3 record in the weekend’s remaining games stranded me at 37-25 in non-conference outings. The reality to which that should alert...
Don't Bet On It!: Week Twelve College Football Forecasts for the National Games of Interest
Together, we have gone around the SEC, and now it is time to turn our attention to the national games of interest. As previously reported, my national record for prognostications now stands at 29-18, so, uh, yeah; Don’t Bet On It! Here are this week’s noteworthy non-SEC outings, which are slated to...
Don't Bet On It!: Week Four College Football Forecasts Around the SEC
Although some have their doubts whether the Georgia Bulldogs any longer are playing SEC football, other teams in the league certainly are, and the Southeastern Conference has some key games on tap this weekend. My 6-1 record in last Saturday’s picks (thanks a heap, Ole Miss!) boosted my season-long...
