Whose Rising? Whose Dominating? And Whose….. Existing?

March 12, 2025


The college football landscape continues to shift as powerhouses rise, fall, and some simply remain stuck in their usual ways. As the season unfolds, we’ve seen dominant performances, unexpected setbacks, and teams trying to claw their way back into relevance. Let’s break it all down. … Miami’s Back? Maybe…… The Hurricanes made a statement with a win over LSU, but let’s keep things in perspective. This wasn’t the same LSU team that has terrorized college football in recent years. A newer quarterback, fresh offensive weapons, and growing pains were expected. Still, a win is a win, and Miami is knocking on the door of contention. Can they sustain it? That’s the real question. … LSU’s Temporary Setback….. Nobody in Baton Rouge is panicking just yet. With Coach Vinnie at the helm, the Tigers are in good hands. This season might be a rebuilding one, but let’s not kid ourselves—LSU will be back in the playoff picture soon. One bad stretch doesn’t erase a dynasty in the making. … Texas’ Playoff Push…… The Longhorns are officially in the hunt. With their QB-WR combo leading the Heisman race, Texas is looking like a serious contender again. However, they are coming off a tough loss to Alabama, a setback that has made their path to the playoffs a little more complicated. Even with that loss, Texas is still fighting to get into the postseason, and their mid-season surge has fans believing they might just pull it off. Can they keep up the momentum when it matters most? That remains to be seen. … Arkansas: The Silent Assassin…… Arkansas continues to roll through its competition, proving they’re not just a flash in the pan. Wins over Miami, Tennessee, and Penn State solidify their standing as one of the toughest teams in the country. They might not get the hype of Alabama or the chaos of LSU, but they’re just fine letting their record do the talking. … Tennessee: The Usual Suspects……. Love them or hate them, Tennessee is going to Tennessee. They made a loud statement with a win over Florida, and while the score looked competitive, don’t be fooled—this was pure Volunteer dominance from start to finish. They’re proving they belong, but the real test will be whether they can keep it up when the stakes get even higher. … Florida: Who Are They??????? Florida isn’t struggling. They aren’t dominating either. They’re just… existing. One week, they look like a force to be reckoned with. The next, they have a complete meltdown like they did against Tennessee, where they were dominated in every facet of the game. Yet, in other matchups, they’ve looked like world-beaters themselves. There’s no clear identity, no real pattern. Florida is the wildcard nobody quite understands. Are they a sleeping giant or a team just floating through the season? At this point, even they might not know. … Alabama: Same Old Story…….. Ah, Alabama. Three things in life are guaranteed—death, taxes, and an Alabama QB throwing interceptions. The Tide are still doing what Alabama does, but the question remains: can they clean up their mistakes when it matters? They’re struggling, but they’re still alive and lurking in the shadows. They’re never out of the picture, but they’re also not invincible. This isn’t the old Alabama we’re used to, but until proven otherwise, they’re still a team you don’t want to see in December. … Oklahoma… Yeah, About That……… Oklahoma is, well, Oklahoma. There’s just not much to say, and that might be the biggest problem. No fire, no spark, no real impact on the national conversation. Until further notice, the only relevant thing about the Sooners might just be… streammmmm. … Final Thoughts******* The season is far from over, but some narratives are becoming clear. Miami is trying to force its way back into the spotlight. LSU is down, but certainly not out. Texas is making a push that might finally mean something, but with their recent loss to Alabama, the road is a little tougher. Arkansas is quietly dominating. Tennessee is doing Tennessee things. Florida is an unpredictable mystery, neither great nor terrible. Alabama is both unstoppable and self-destructive at the same time. And Oklahoma? Well, we’ll check back when they give us a reason to. One thing’s for sure—college football never disappoints.
