While we were completing the Willy Wonka grandparents challenge, the giants of the college gridiron spent the holidays contending for bowl game glory.

The NFL remains in hot water as many question why it took so long to postpone Monday’s game, especially as players were visibly distraught after watching their teammate and peer be administered CPR on the field.

No. 1 Georgia is aiming to become the first-ever back-to-back champs, No. 3 TCU is the first not-Oklahoma Big 12 team to make the final four, and there could be a spicy rivalry title game between No. 2 Michigan and No. 4 Ohio State.

Hope you asked Santa for “more football” this year because there are 11 (!!!) games tomorrow ahead of a Christmas Day triple-header and a Boxing Day grand finale.

Besides the main dish CFP semis, there are several not-to-miss sides to serve up next weekend before bidding farewell to the collegiate gridiron season.

In my Christmas feels.

Mercury’s not in retrograde just yet, which means this weekend of absolutely weird football is truly inexplicable.

With just four weeks left in the regular season, the pressure to make the playoffs is on, and a few teams could lock it up this weekend. Paging Jim Mora.

On the prowl for another winning week.

The Philadelphia Eagles are officially playoff bound thanks to a tremendous performance by quarterback (QB) Jalen Hurts, who completed 21 of 31 passes with two passing touchdowns in yesterday’s 48–22 stomping on the NY Giants. Flyin’ high.

Washington Commanders owner Dan Snyder and the NFL are in hot water after the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Reform released damning evidence of cover-ups and malpractice yesterday, following a 14-month investigation into the Commanders’ workplace environment.

Bowl games may not kick off until late next week, but the FBS still has a major competition this weekend, with the four quarterback (QB) Heisman finalists heading to the Big Apple tomorrow in hope of adding some iconic hardware to their season bouquet.
