On the season finale of Big Dumb Ten, Stephen is overwhelmed with grief after attending Ohio State's playoff loss to Clemson. Can he comfort himself by winning Better Know a Big Ten player or observing Michigan's continued failures? Is Justin Jackson the leftist icon we need right now? Is the Big Ten any good? All this and more at the end of BDT S3.

Ohio State survived a scare in Indianapolis to ensure their place in the playoff. Now it's time to preview their matchup with Clemson as well as the Big Ten's other "exciting" postseason contests this bowl season.

Our conversation about rivalry week is slightly delayed because we have to explain the details of Yu-Gi-Oh to Stephen, but rest assured we will talk about Michigan getting destroyed yet again, Illinois losing the hat to a terrible Northwestern team, and Rutgers rekindling an old flame.

Chase Young and the Buckeyes took care of business against Penn State while Minnesota and Wisconsin beat their opponents to set up a HATE WEEK for the ages. Also Maryland is the worst team that nobody talks about.

We postpone Death Stranding chat to talk about Pokemon instead. Please do not look up sexy Galarian Weezing. Football happened also, including Indiana's accidental fake punt and Michigan State's endless personal fouls.

Ah fuck the episode is out late again. Shit. Our predictions were better this time though!

Finally all three of us are on the pod again (and Stephen is back in the states) but none of us watched any of this week's bad football so it's tangent city! Discussion includes but is not limited to: Death Stranding, Rutgers coach Luigi, the world's largest money line, the football version of That Don't Impress Me Much, and coaches' favorite music acts.

Travis is back but Ian is gone, so we're a little bit more football-focused as Nunzio Campanile gets his (probably only) win, Michigan blows out Notre Dame, and Wisconsin shits the bed in Columbus.

Travis was waiting in line at Cedar Point all day and unable to record so Ian and Stephen did some dumb bullshit about which coaches are Metal Gear Solid villains or whatever. Stephen's Jim Harbaugh knowledge is pitiful.

We open this week's episode by talking at length about an SEC game, but eventually we get into The Saddest Rutgers Stat Ever, Michigan in panic mode at 5-1, and future Rose Bowl participants Minnesota. Also Marina Abramovic, again.
