Big Ten Football Talk

This is probably my favorite episode that I've ever done.  I share why the Ohio State/Michigan rivalry matters so much to me, and I break down this game and what I think will happen (and also what could happen.)  Also, an apology to Andrel Anthony... I kept calling him Andrel Anderson.  But he's a stud, and someone to watch out for the Wolverines.  

It's Rivalry Week!  Check out the picks for the greatest week of all in college football.  (Note: The Ohio State/Michigan Pick will be on the Friday Podcast). Also, we breakdown the playoff rankings, which I surprisingly liked this week.  

All that and more, on the Big Ten Football Talk Podcast!

Week 12 picks, featuring Spartans vs. Buckeyes, Cornhuskers vs. Badgers, and several key out of conference match-ups to boot!  Join us for all the action on the Big Ten Football Talk Podcast!

So, I rant a bit more in this, and I may not be the most clear or well reasoned on this episode.  Also, my rankings are probably just as bad as the CFP's, which to me proves that we need a different playoff system, because I DISAGREE WITH MY OWN RANKINGS!  But, I promise, there's worthwhile content in the midst of my own absurdity.  The Big Ten's round robin quickly approaches, as Ohio State will play Michigan State this weekend.  Meanwhile, Wisconsin seems to be waiting in the wings as they seem to be strolling to another Big Ten West Title.  In the rest of the College Football World, the three most talent rich states have no good teams to show for it (outside of the SEC).  Why?  I don't know why, but it's something we talk about.  That and more, on the Big Ten Football Talk Week 11 recap!

Week 11 Picks, including Penn State hosting #6 Michigan, #4 Ohio State hosting #19 Purdue, Minnesota visiting the #20 Iowa Hawkeyes, and all the other Big Ten games.  Plus, bonus picks with Georgia/Tennessee, Oklahoma/Baylor, and Notre Dame/UVA.  

Also, we talk about the wild inconsistencies with the CFP rankings, how the committee is in an impossible situation, and why this current format needs to change for the integrity of the sport.  

We recap week 10, including the big upset by Purdue over Michigan State, Why Wisconsin may be the most dangerous team in the Big Ten, and we discuss the dilemma that the CFP committee is in, as everyone in the top ten either struggled with lesser competition, or lost.  (Excluding Georgia.  Georgia's awesome).  Join us for the week 10 recap!

Week 10 Picks, including why Ohio State and Michigan State might be on upset alert.  Plus, we react to the first release of the playoff rankings, and boy... does it seem like they are cherry picking to get Alabama into the playoff.  Join us for all that and more on the Big Ten Football Talk Podcast!

Listen in as we discuss the week 9 recap, including why Michigan State is number 1 in the Big Ten (Mel Tucker and Kenneth Walker for starters!), why Penn State isn't falling too far behind, and why Ohio State is still probably in good shape.  Plus, Wisconsin and Minnesota control their own destiny in the West, and Iowa's hapless offense has it in a lot of trouble.  Plus, why Colin Cowherd is wrong about Alabama (right now).  

Two BIG games that will shape the East Division Race, One HUGE game that will give a clear front-runner for the West.  Join us as we pick all 7 Big Ten games, all of which have major significance for each team, as well as two out of conference games.  Also, Jim Harbaugh is actually doing a good job at Michigan.  Yet, he has underachieved.  If he wants to help Michigan become elite, this is a game he must win.  Join us for the week 9 picks on the Big Ten Football Talk Podcast.
