Troy has won the last two Sun Belt Conference championships, but head coach Jon Sumrall took off for Tulane in the offseason. Sumrall led the Trojans to a 23-4 record over the last two seasons and hands the reins over to former Notre Dame defensive coordinator Gerad Parker. The Trojans have the most Sun Belt titles (8) in conference history. The 2024 college football season could mark a changing of the guard as Appalachian State,

It’s the year SEC fans have been waiting for. Oklahoma and Texas finally join the conference and add even more to an already existing power. The Longhorns made it to last year’s College Football Playoff, though they were eliminated by Washington in the national semifinals. The same happened to Alabama, a loser to eventual national champion Michigan. A year later, the SEC is even more loaded and could have as many as four entrants in

Week 15 of the College Football season is Conference Championship week. This is the time of the year where the major NCAAF conferences hold their championship games as the rest of the sport watches.  There are nine Conference Title matchups scheduled for Friday, December 6, and Saturday, December 7. Although we know where some of the games will be played at, we do not know which teams will be playing in them.  Additionally, there are

In years past, Week 14 of the College Football season has been referred to as Rivalry Week. And, though there are some big rivalry games this week, it feels like the College Football schedule makers have done a great job at spreading out rivalries throughout the season, where they might really have an impact.  With that said, this is the final week of the regular season for 99% of the teams. Week 15 is the

The Mountain West Conference will undergo some changes in 2024. The league’s best team, Boise State, is back to defend its conference championship from a year ago. Six of the Mountain West’s 12 teams will have new head coaches in 2024. That includes Boise State, which had somewhat of a bizarre 2023 season. After Andy Avalos was fired in November, Spencer Danielson was named the interim head coach. Danielson led the Broncos to two wins

Just like with Week 12, the 13th Week of the College Football season showcases some exciting small-conference matchups that could be previews to their respective title games. Week 13 also features a big-time showdown between the Alabama Crimson Tide and Oklahoma Sooners, along with some long-time West Coast rivalry games. The MAC Conference and Conference USA will showcase matchups between the top two schools of each conference against each other. The Northern Illinois Huskies will

Week 12 of the 2024-25 College Football season is one of those weeks where most of the big conference powerhouses are playing against vastly inferior opponents. A great example of this is Alabama playing Mercer. It’s basically a Bye Week. However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t any compelling matchups in Week 12. Outside of a few Big Ten games, the grid-iron drama can be seen in the smaller conferences like the Mountain West, MAC and

With five nights of action, Week 11 of the 2024-25 College Football season is packed with some big games that will certainly attract NCAAF fans and bettors alike. During the week, there are some small-conference matchups that will not only impact their respective conferences, but also make or break these programs angling for a spot in the College Football Playoffs. For example, the Northern Illinois Huskies battle the Western Michigan Broncos in a MAC showdown.

Miami returns 14 starters from last year’s 11-3 MAC championship team. Will the Redhawks repeat? Toledo lost to Miami 23-14 in last year’s MAC title game. It’s the second straight year the Rockets played for the conference title. Toledo loses a ton of talent, especially on an offense that averaged 32.3 points per game last season. Will there be a surprise in the MAC in 2024? One thing has not changed in the MAC. The
