Christopher C. Wuensch is a sports journalist with 20-plus years of kicking up dust and sunflower seeds on MLB diamonds, NCAA sidelines, PGA Tour stops and beyond. He covered Georgia, Tennessee and Arkansas as a beat reporter for Saturday Down South and SEC Country (Atlanta Journal-Constitution) and Arizona Wildcats athletics for the Tucson Citizen, while also serving as a founding member and Deputy CFB Editor at football.com. A University of Arizona J-School alum, he's spent 16 years copy editing every stitch of Lindy's Sports Magazine College Football previews and has interviewed everyone from Tiger Woods to Joey Chestnut—only one of whom may or may not have had jalapeño popper grease on their chin. Originally from New Jersey and firmly in the Taylor Ham Camp, Christopher now resides in the Denver Metro Area and stubbornly refuses to give up his New York Jets fandom.
