The Block M Podcast Network: A University of Michigan Podcast

The latest episode of the "Big House Bleachers" podcast, co-hosted by Michael Smeltzer and Matt Hartwell, delves into Michigan's recent win against Maryland, moving the team to an 11-0 record this college football season. They discuss the game where Michigan narrowly defeated Maryland 31-24, dissecting the performance of quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who, despite being banged up, contributed significantly to the victory alongside Michigan's strong defense and running back Blake Corum.

Michael and Matt award the "Player of the Game," also known as the "This Guy Right Here Award." They also engage in a "Michigan Mythbusters" segment to debunk myths about the current state of Michigan football. The episode also covers the ongoing scandal involving Michigan's alleged illegal signal-stealing, including the recent firing of linebackers coach Chris Partridge and discussions around the mysterious booster Uncle T, suspected of funding the operation.

The co-hosts then turn their attention to the highly anticipated upcoming game against undefeated Ohio State. They present five burning questions each about the matchup, which is sure to have major College Football Playoff implications.

In the latest episode of the "Big House Bleachers" podcast, hosts Michael Smeltzer and Matt Hartwell discuss a range of topics related to Michigan football and basketball. They kick off with a recap of Michigan's significant 24-15 victory over Penn State, a win that kept them undefeated at 10-0 for the season, including their conference games. This victory keeps Michigan's hopes for a Big Ten championship and a college football playoff berth alive.

A notable element of the game was Blake Corum's performance against Penn State's top-ranked rushing defense, where Michigan impressively finished with 32 consecutive running plays. However, overshadowing this on-field success was the suspension of Michigan's head football coach, Jim Harbaugh, amidst a controversial situation involving sign-stealing allegations and tensions between the Big Ten conference and the Michigan football program.

Mike and Matt delve into the complexities of both the on-field triumphs and the off-field drama, offering detailed insights and awarding their Player of the Game honors. They also preview Michigan's upcoming game against Maryland Terrapins.

Switching to basketball, the hosts discuss the Michigan basketball team's promising start to the season, moving to a 2-0 record even as head coach Juwan Howard recovers from heart surgery. They note the team's improved chemistry over last year's squad and look forward to their upcoming game against St. John's.
