Stephen is in Thailand and we don't know what to talk about. We take our first "reader" questions and try to decipher what Stephen is saying over his horrendous internet connection. Our most avant-garde episode yet!

We wrap up team previews and histories by looking at the two newest members of the Big Ten: Rutgers and Maryland. We make no apologies for our thoughts on Maryland's flag or the state of New Jersey. Also: Big Ten season prop bets.

The saddest original Big Ten teams get an episode for themselves in this installment. Purdue, Indiana and Illinois bring little joy to us, but all three have new (or newish) coaches and high hopes.

We make lewd jokes for 10 minutes before diving into the middle of the Big Ten pack. Minnesota, Northwestern and Nebraska could all contend for the West or barely make a bowl game.

We bring the pain in this episode as we discuss the two Big Tennest teams in the Big Ten: Iowa and Wisconsin. Also, Travis relives all of his worst Michigan State memories.

We kick things off by diving into the conference's most storied programs - Ohio State and Michigan - as well as last year's conference champion Penn State. Hear why Travis hates the Wolverines more than anything on Earth and why our two Ohio State fan hosts actually don't.
