A Packers fan, college football and especially NFL draft fan. He has been writing about the NFL draft off and on since 2001, but more heavily the last four years.

We will be going over players who either helped or hurt their draft stock these past couple weeks that are eligible for the 2025 draft. I will also mention some sleepers to keep an eye on that haven’t been talked about much. Players Who’s Stock Has Gone Up WR-Jack Bech from TCU.

This weeks slate of games were definitely an adventure. We have late controversial wins, blow outs, big rushing games, big passing games and big defensive games. We had a bit of everything. First things first, lets get to that controversial game….. Miami Is Undefeated…Or Is It? The first game of the week was a barn burner. Miami beat Virginia Tech late 38-34. Virginia Tech had the lead going into the fourth quarter, but Miami took the lead in the fourth. With about three seconds left in the game, on the final play of the game Kyron Drones seemed to have…

We are just four weeks into the 2024 College Football season and its been a roller coaster already. I expect it will continue to be a crazy season all the way to the end. So lets get to the interesting stories from this past weekend. There Were Some Close Wins This Week In College Football Rutgers won a close game over Virginia Tech, 26-23. They surprisingly won with the passing game with Monangai having just 84 yards rushing. Virginia Tech is a disappointing 2-2. Michigan also won a close one over USC.  They had 290 yards rushing as a team…
