About Michael »

My name is Michael McCarthy, and I am a super senior at the University of Houston. I am crazy about all things college football, and that's what I plan on focusing on in my writings for Bleacher Report. What I can't stand is the irrationality of most college football fans, and all fans in general, and I will strive for as unbiased a point of view as I can give. I'm a real X's and O's fan of the game, and I will talk strategy and analysis all day long.
