Minnie Hunt and co-host Fred Sacco kick off Monday Night Therapy with chat shout-outs and Big Eight nostalgia before welcoming guest TJ Ronan from Michigan’s “Voice of College Football.” The trio dives into Nebraska–Michigan week: Minnie teases Michigan’s soft schedule; TJ pushes back and outlines the Wolverines’ 2024 identity—elite young QB Bryce Underwood, strong linebackers (including ex-Husker Ernest Hausmann), but a non-vintage O-line and a pass rush mostly generated by blitzers. Fred counters with Nebraska’s improving special teams, a flexible 3-3-5 defense, and Dylan Raiola’s maturation, while noting Husker O-line and short-yardage concerns. Score picks: TJ 24–17 Michigan; Fred 24–21 Nebraska; Minnie 31–27 Nebraska.

They debate NIL power (TJ cites Michigan’s mega-donor culture), the portal era, and a possible future “super league.” Stadium talk pegs Michigan fans at ~15% in Lincoln. After a quick look back at Nebraska’s 59–7 win over Houston Christian (clean game, still need more push on the goal line, second straight game without a punt), Minnie plugs Friday’s Kinkaider meetup and Bud Crawford’s Husker ties. Chat revisits the ’97 split title debate and celebrates community moments, including a shout-out to stage-four cancer survivor Peggy Goodwin Evans. The crew signs off optimistic and amped for Saturday.

Go Big Red.
