Texas A&M vs. Arkansas: Please Win This One!

 

We are finally at the Southwest Classic.  It has been far too long since we have beaten Texas A&M.  The last time that we won was in 2011.  Remember Tyler Wilson, Bobby Petrino, and Knile Davis?  Just some players and the head coach from that time.  If these names sound old to you, then it really has been far too long.  I can understand this against Alabama, but we've had too many close games with Texas A&M for this to be ok.  We've already beaten Texas this year and adding Texas A&M to old Southwest Conference rivals on the win list would be so good.

Last week I went 17-4 (81%) for my College Football predictions (Total: 46-11 (80.7%)) and 8-7 (53.3%) for NFL predictions (Total: 16-14 (53.3%)).  Now let's do this week's predictions!

Georgia Southern vs. Arkansas: Let it be Easy

 

Last week's win against Texas was so great to see.  It made me so happy and I just really hope that Arkansas takes care of business for this week.  We are a high favorite against Georgia Southern.  I trust that Sam Pittman will keep his team humble and keep rolling with the strong punches.

Texas vs. Arkansas: Long Time Rivals

 

It is time for the showdown between Texas and Arkansas!  Since Arkansas has been in the SEC my whole life, I have not seen a lot of games involving Texas and Arkansas because of them being in different conferences.  I've been told about the old rivalry from when both teams were in the Southwest Conference and how it really got heated.  I am excited to finally watch a game between them in what has felt a really long time.

Last week I went 12-3 (80%) on my College Football predictions.  This week starts the NFL season which means those will be included now.

Rice vs. Arkansas: College Football is Back!

 

Football is finally back!  It is time to make the full season predictions for the Arkansas Razorbacks including the games from other teams for this week.  The NFL season doesn't start until next weekend.  This post will then just contain predictions for this week's College Football games.

Last year I made a similar post where I predicted all of the games for the Razorbacks.  I predicted that they would go 3-7 including against the same opponents too.  The post is from this link if you want to check it out.  Without further ado, I will do by whole season prediction for the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Season Predictions:

Rice vs. Arkansas: Arkansas

Texas vs. Arkansas: Arkansas

Georgia So vs. Arkansas: Arkansas

Texas A&M vs. Arkansas: Texas A&M

Arkansas vs. Georgia: Georgia

Arkansas vs. Ole Miss: Ole Miss

Auburn vs. Arkansas: Arkansas

AR-Pine Bluff vs. Arkansas: Arkansas

Mississippi St vs. Arkansas: Arkansas

Arkansas vs. LSU: LSU

Arkansas vs. Alabama: Alabama

Missouri vs. Arkansas: Arkansas

After these predictions, I make the prediction that Arkansas could go 7-5.  Last season's success gives me confidence that Arkansas will continue to improve well.  They could be just good enough to be even better than bowl eligible.  Of course, these are pre-season predictions and my weekly predictions for the game could change on how the Razorbacks perform during the season.

Now let's get to the predictions for the rest of the games that are part of the bigger headlines.

College Football Week 1 Predictions:

Oklahoma vs. Tulane: Oklahoma

Penn State vs. Wisconsin: Wisconsin

Fresno State vs. Oregon: Oregon

Alabama vs. Miami: Alabama

Miami (OH) vs. Cincinnati: Cincinnati

Indiana vs. Iowa: Iowa

Northern Iowa vs. Iowa State: Iowa State

Louisiana vs. Texas: Texas

San Jose State vs. USC: USC

Georgia vs. Clemson: Clemson

FAU vs. Florida: Florida

Kent State vs. Texas A&M: Texas A&M

Montana vs. Washington: Washington

LSU vs. UCLA: UCLA

Notre Dame vs. Florida State: Notre Dame

Let's have a great football season!

Super Bowl!

 

It's here.  It's finally here.  The Super Bowl.  Now we will have to see who will win after a Covid filled season like this one.  It's even amazing that there was a full NFL season at all.  Just count your blessings.  Now, let's get to discussing the game itself.

The ESPN FPI has this as their prediction:

This shows that Kansas City has a 52.1% chance of winning this match-up.  It seems to be a more even match since Tampa Bay is playing at home and Tom Brady seems to just not age.  We will have to see then if it really is an even match up.  Typically, Super Bowls involving Tom Brady do seem to have a close score.  The Super Bowl with his biggest points margin was against the Rams in Super Bowl 53 and that was just by 10 points.  The Chiefs and Buccaneers already played in the season in Tampa Bay and the Chiefs only won by 3 points.  This game will probably be similar as well, given the even match-up prediction from ESPN.  Also, Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes is still suffering from turf toe from a few weeks ago.  I don't know if that will really affect his game since he still played with turf toe against the Bills in the AFC Championship and they dominated on offense.  But, I see this as a close game and could potentially be a shoot out between bot QBs.  But of course, we could just have the Chiefs dominate the Buccaneers by 40 points and Tom Brady could retire then maybe.  I mean 7 rings for Tom Brady.  Sounds an awful lot like Tom Riddle with 7 Horcruxes (get my Harry Potter reference?).

Ok before we watch the game with our yummy chicken wings and Coca-Cola or Root Beer or whatever beverage and before the funny commercials, if they're even funny this year, let's make the final prediction.  I was 1-1 for Championship weekend which brings my total for the NFL season 71-39 (64.54%).  I guess not too bad. Now I will choose for the Super Bowl is.................................................

Chiefs.

Let's go!

See you later nerds...

NFL Championship Week

I don’t have a lot to say so let’s get to the predictions already! Last week for NFL, I was 2-2 which brings me to 70-38 (64.8%) and NFL Underdog predictions to 0-5 (0%).  Now I will prediction how the rest of the NFL Playoffs will go.

Championship Week

Buccaneers vs. Packers: Packers

Bills vs. Chiefs: Chiefs

Super Bowl

Packers vs. Chiefs: Chiefs

NFL Divisional Round and Bowl Game Record

 

Bowl season officially ended this week with the National Championship and the NFL Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs begin. I don't have much to say, but some Browns players like Kareem Hunt and OBJ need to stop talking smack about their match-up against the Chiefs if they really want to win.  The Steelers did it to the Browns and they lost.  Dabo Swinney did it to Ohio State and Clemson lost to them.  I might happen again but we'll see.

Now let's get to this week's predictions.  My total record for Bowl Season was 13-11 which means that my running total for predictions for College Football is 94-34 (73.4%) and  Underdog Predictions to 1-8 (11.1%).  Last week for NFL, I was 3-3 which brings me to 68-36 (65.4%) and NFL Underdog predictions to 0-5 (0%).  Now I will predict how the rest of the NFL Playoffs will go.

Divisional Round

Rams vs. Packers: Packers

Ravens vs. Bills: Ravens

Browns vs. Chiefs: Chiefs

Buccaneers vs. Saints: Saints

Championship Week

Saints vs. Packers: Packers

Ravens vs. Chiefs: Chiefs

Super Bowl

Packers vs. Chiefs: Chiefs
