TWINS!SPOOKY SEASON BEGINS! The Week 6 College Football Preview with Bennett ThompsonWeek 5 was absolutely brilliant. It was relentlessly exciting, determinant in some places, & tremendously powerful in others, all with curiously few injuries across the sport & some of the most exciting & impactful football of the season to-date. We're learning more every week, & after more than a full third of the regular season, it's hard not to argue we all at least feel a little smarter than we did in August. Savor every snap. Here we go! @ColorofGrey on Twitter/X@ColorofGreyStudio on Instagram #TheGreyZones #FeteGreenville www.GVLmedia.online

So Long, September! The Week 5 College Football Preview with Davey McNightWe're learning more every week, & after a full third of the regular season, it's hard not to argue we all at least feel a little smarter than we did in August. That doesn't mean we're right (far from it?), but this was a really good preview & this weekend has some of the biggest games we might get all season. Savor every snap. Here we go! @ColorofGrey on Twitter/X@ColorofGreyStudio on Instagram #TheGreyZones #FeteGreenville www.GVLmedia.online

There's nothing more powerful or important than truth.We thought we knew. We thought we understood. We hypothesized rather than just made opinions.But NOW we know. Week 4 giveth, taketh away, & most importantly exposes the truth. @ColorofGrey on Twitter/X@ColorofGreyStudio on Instagram #TheGreyZones #FeteGreenville www.GVLmedia.online

Y'all want conference play?!Congratulations (I think)!Week 3 made games "matter," brought in conference play nationwide (mostly?), injuries, upsets, goal posts, rivalries, field-storming, bad beats & very bad beats, week 3 had it all from noon past midnight, & we're here for it. @ColorofGrey on Twitter/X@ColorofGreyStudio on Instagram #TheGreyZones #FeteGreenville www.GVLmedia.online

THE CONFERENCE PLAYERS BALL: Week 3 Preview with Davey McNightIf weeks 1 & 2 (& zero) are the prologue, week 3 is chapter 1. Most leagues haven't played any conference games yet (& they're not all playing conference opponents, either), but week 3 is the beating heart for the rest of the season. Everything you think you know may or may not be true, but we'll all know a lot more after week 2 than we did from anything we've seen so far. Mortgage bets? Guaranteed!MACtion? Kinda!Upsets? Maybe not quite the same this week, but a little goes a long way!Savor every snap. Here we go! @ColorofGrey on Twitter/X@ColorofGreyStudio on Instagram #TheGreyZones #FeteGreenville www.GVLmedia.online

Y'all want conference play?!TOO BAD!Week 2 is perhaps the most forgettable week of every college football season.

If only there was a league called the BIG12 that actually had 12 teams, we could have done this in one go.Instead, we gotta split it up. Today, it's the Hateful Eight of the BIG12. This is the last of all the power-four groups, & we've covered them all! It's been a great thought experiment for sure, & we're still gonna do at least the MAC. Here come your grades!#thegreyzones #GVLMedia

B1G New Money: The 2024 Review with Davey McNightWho was the B1G this year? Well, for one thing, they were far too big to cover in a single episode (BIG20 has a nice ring to it), so we're going with "the old money" this time, those the blue bloods & bordertown Midwesterners, plus Purdue exists.#thegreyzones#GVLMedia
