It’s a pretty bad week in college football, but there are some gems that will be worth keeping an eye to redeem it a bit.

After watching football for the entire day for the tenth straight Saturday, I spent some time reflecting on the season thus far. I had a realization as I was dozing the fourth hour of Oklahoma-Texas Tech. This season sucks. It’s bad to watch. The games have been boring, there are like three good games, and none of them play anything resembling a fun system. Alabama, Clemson and to an extent Michigan are just killing everyone the play, and every other team stinks.

I don’t mind the futility of knowing who wins the championship. Alabama’s dominance hangs over everything yes, but I don’t care about that, because that happens every year. They’re just slightly more omnipresent this year because they found a quarterback. The thing I do mind is that the rest of the games this season, save for a few (mostly AAC) bangers, have been unsurprising, boring, or in some cases, just total blowouts.

Sure we’ve had some awesome games, but for the most part, we haven’t had a week that really felt like college football yet. We got close a few weeks ago, but even then it felt like college football was holding back. We’re all waiting for marquee games and stunning upsets that just aren’t coming. This is what the season is, and buddy, it stinks.

Anyway, I hit on nine of my 11 picks last week, or 82 percent. That increases my season percentage to 73 percent, which is pretty good to me, the man who invented this completely subjective rating system.
