Christopher C. Wuensch is a sports jounalist with 20-plus years of kicking up dust and sunflower seeds on the sidelines of NCAA football and basketball games, along with the PGA Tour, MLB and beyond. Chris covered programs such as Georgia, Tennessee and Arkansas as a beat reporter for Saturday Down South and SEC Country (Atlanta Journal-Constitution), as well as Arizona Wildcats athletics for the Tucson Citizen. He was also a founding member and Deputy CFB Editor at Football.com. A University of Arizona J-School alum, he has spent the past 15 years meticulously copy editing every single stitch of Lindy's Sports Magazine college football preview content and has interviewed everyone from Tiger Woods to Joey Chestnut—only one of whom may or may not have had jalapeño popper grease dribbling from their chin. Originally from New Jersey and firmly in the “Taylor Ham” camp, Chris now roams the Denver and Boulder metro areas in search of the next great story.
