Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Podcast Network’s I-80 Football Show. On this show, we travel down I-80 to talk all things Big Ten Football. This is the only Big Ten Podcast that’ll cover all 18 teams. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the conference’s games and look ahead at the matchups, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to for the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host Dante Morgan.

In this week's episode, we do a quick recap of week two. Oregon and Penn State are making the top of the Big Ten look weaker as they struggle with inferior opponents. Meanwhile Michigan is bad, we expected this but it looks much worse than even Jordan could hope for. Nebraska and Illinois on the other hand are on a high after beating rival Colorado and fan favorite Kansas. In our picks update, Dante holds a small lead going 30-3 in two weeks while Jordan is 29-4. 

It was a tough week for Mapquest as there were very few good games this week as a lot of the top teams were on an early bye week but a last, we moved forward. With no Friday or after-dark game, there are only four games on our list. In the noon slate, we have Alabama at Wisconsin. Without Nick Saban, the game may be closer than expected but Wisconsin hasn’t given many reasons for us to be confident early in the season. 

The mid-day game is led by two former PAC-12 rivalries as Washington and Oregon play their in-state counterparts Washington State and Oregon State. There was a lot of animosity leading into the game but Oregon has struggled for the past two weeks so they’re officially on upset watch. In the night slot, I can not call this game a primetime game, we get Indiana traveling to UCLA for the Bruins's first Big Ten conference game. 

In this week's pitstops, Jordan talks about the up-and-down nature of watching Anthony Richardson. He may never be a great quarterback but he is an exciting player who makes throws less than five people on this planet can make. Dante is tired of the gaming industry as PlayStation is charging $700 for the PS5 pro but barely making any upgrades and only selling it as a digital console.
