At least twice a year, we circle this day on the calendar. The "Hell Is Real" Derby is upon us, and once again, it's all Ohio. (It always has been.) FC Cincinnati and Columbus Crew have been steadfast and gaining momentum atop the standings, and this weekend's edition presents more than just bragging rights to the victors. We may be biased, but this is the best rivalry in North America, bar none.

We know what the Orange & Blue and the Black & Yellow can bring to the table, but what is the vibe from the Crew fans' point of view? How confident are our brethren to the north? We ask Ben and Tre from the Upper 90 Club podcast their opinions on how this season's version of the Crew stands after roster renovations and stadium shakeups.
