The NFL season is one that is full of uncertainties and assumptions. Fans and analyst alike will try to predict the Superbowl competitors, Superbowl Champ and MVP. The announcement for who won what end of season award went down pretty much as anyone could assume for this season. For the […]

Is Harbaugh Pulling a George Perles? Black Monday Hits Hard; Will it be Smart Money?
The Harbaugh Sweepstakes are in swing! He’s on a plane to Las Vegas. No wait, he is in Yost Arena watching the Wolverines hockey team against UMass. Miami fires Brian Flores, making way for alum Stephen Ross to hire Jimmy, Wait, he says he didn’t do it to lure his […]
Michigan and Cincinnati, So Close But Yet So Far; That Gap is Still Miles Wide
What team was going to show up last night? The Georgia team that got trucked by Alabama? That’s what I was hoping for as a Michigan fan. The team that left with its tails between its Bulldog legs. Or would it be the team that was ranked number one for […]
Thank You John Madden and Alex Klekotka for Legacies and Memories that Touched All Generations
Every time I thought of John Madden, I think of wow, how much fun is he really having? The genuine enjoyment of what he is doing. When I thought of Alex Klekotka, I thought of wow, how much fun is he having on the ice. Look at the enjoyment. It […]
Central Michigan slandered by sports Journalists
In what I call shameful reporting, or a cheap attempt to make a name for yourself, Larry Brown Sports (whatever that is) insinuates that Central Michigan snubbed Barstool to join Washington State in the Sun Bowl on CBS December 31st. Yardbarker even piggybacked the article, word for word, as if […]
Biting Kneecaps Proves Better Than Kicking Legs and Lap Dances; Don’t Blame Walker and Pickett for Leaving
Dan Campbell and Urban Meyer both entered the 2021 NFL season 0-0. Both teams inherited morbid franchises. Both guys came in with tough guy mentality. Campbell, taking over a hot mess created by Matt Patricia, claimed they were going to be kicking ass, and taking names, biting kneecaps on the […]
Kenneth Walker Deserved Better, Heisman Voting is a Sham; Bring on Bowl Games
The Heisman Trophy. One time considered the holy grail of college football. The ultimate prize. The true measuring stick of greatness in college football. An award that measured your whole body of work in the complete college football season. Oh, how that has changed. Unfortunately, it has become […]
No Surprise for the CFP; Notre Dame has No Complaints; CFB Free Agency is Now Upon Us
The College Football Playoff is set. Alabama, Michigan, Georgia, and Cincinnati. Congrats to all. Not that I am surprised. In a perfect world, Michigan would’ve been one, and Alabama 2. But unless you haven’t been paying attention, the College Football Playoff isn’t always about what is right. It is about […]
Lincoln Riley Will Win a Nattie Before Brian Kelly; Do You Feel Sorry for MLB?
When it comes to football, who cares about USC? When is the last time you worried about USC, or the Pac 12 when it comes to football? Well, you better start. Lincoln Riley will make them relevant, and more than likely a household word when it comes to the college […]

College Football: A Professional Business Like No Other
In a sports league not too long ago that demanded players not be given a 4th meal during a 24 hour period or your school was in violation, we now have players (a few) making over a million dollars in NIL money and now coaches leaving without as much as […]
It’s Not Bo vs. Woody, But it’s Just as Big This Weekend; What I am Thankful For Because of Sports
Michigan vs. That team down south… The rivalry of rivalries. Yes, I get it. That team down south has dominated this rivalry. For those of you that are history challenged, there was a time when Michigan dominated this rivalry, and yet you fans of that team down south seem to […]
Thank You Freeland, a Game of Inches, A Lifetime of Memories; Does Cincinnati Finally Get Their Chance?
You hear the cliche’ all the time. Sports, especially football, can come down to a game of inches. For those of you that do not know, I do play-by-play for Freeland High School, located in Mid Michigan, about twenty miles west of Saginaw. They are like most communities who share […]
Will John Gruden Expose The NFL? Jim Harbaugh Overrated? Steve Sarkisian Says Hold my Beer!
John Gruden was done a huge favor when he was traded by the Oakland Raiders to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2002 for draft picks and money. Oakland was successful with him at the helm, but you could tell their run was about to end. He inherited a Tony Dungy […]
Will OBJ be the Man, or Stafford’s Excuse? Mission Accomplished: CFB Playoff has You Talking
The OBJ Drama, or nausea is over…for now. A team out of nowhere came up and grabbed him. The Los Angeles Rams. I have to say, I didn’t see that one coming. Now, I knew it wouldn’t be Green Bay. Green Bay is a great team, with great tradition, but […]
College Football Week 11: Best Bets
Can you believe it? It is already WEEK ELEVEN of college football. It is truly flying by, so always remember to stop and enjoy it before it is gone for good. First off, I want to introduce myself. My name is Gracie and I joined 12oz Sports about a […]
The Bearcats & Prejudice; just another typical year in the NCAA
For all the talk about the College Football Playoffs, perhaps the worst case against Cincinnati is, “who have they played?” To me, that is a lazy take, and shame on any former player at any collegiate level that uses that excuse. First, any former player knows talent plays at all […]
Janner’s College Football Top 10 Rankings: Week 10
The herd keeps getting thinner…
The CFB Playoff Committee Got it Right…Cincinnati did not get Screwed; Stafford Pressure Level just got Ratcheted
The first College Football Playoff rankings are out. Georgia was the overwhelming number one. There was never any doubt that was going to be the case. After that, we knew things would get interesting….and indeed it did. Alabama at No. 2 raised a few eyebrows, to say the least. “How […]
Paul Bunyan Stays in East Lansing….MSU is Playoff Worthy
A game for the ages. This had all the billing of a game for the ages. Michigan ranked 6th, Michigan St. ranked 8th. Both teams 7-0. 1st place in the B1G Ten East. A spot in the top 4 of the initial CFB Playoff rankings is even a possibility. How […]
