Blue Ribbon Is Underrated it comes in book form about 400 pages
The GOOD - 3 Pages of Each Team Just Talked About Last Year Lots Of Coaches Comments About 4'000 Words on Each 1A Team

Bad - Its 22.95 which is Fair for the content Only Ranks Top 25 Very Vanilla in their picks no Starting Lineup Death chart Coaches Comments are all very nice
Bland

If u want Blue Ribbon Get their College Basketball

first college football preview i bought was athlon the 2 yrs (when i was getting into college football 07 and 08) in 09 lindy's from 2010 to present phil steele kinda funny 1st heard of phil steele from youtube channel call onikuno he does videos for dallas cowboys and oklahoma football phil steele they go more in depth with predictions very good

*for some reason i usally find them @ walmart that is a few miles more than me in league city town minutes from me heading to houston lol*

my walmart in my town usally sold out

I got Phil Steele for last season and didn't like the part that all the projections were mostly him bragging about his past accurate projections. Yes he gives a lot of statistics about each team but when I go to read about the team he keeps saying stuff like "Well, 2 years ago I predicted them to not go to a bowl and was right. Last year predicted them to go to a bowl game and was right also." We get it dude. Your good at what you do, now tell me about the actual team please and not your predictions that came true.
