Happy Friday TOC. I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving. But now we need to turn our attention back to MSU football one last time this season. It’s all on the line tomorrow. Can MSU get that elusive Big Ten win and catch Maryland in the standings? Or will the Terrapins keep the Spartans at […]

There was one upset in the Big Ten last weekend as Wisconsin beat a previously ranked Illinois team. Penn State showed that their win over Michigan State wasn’t a fluke by convincingly beating what had been a decent Nebraska team. And USC lost their chance at being in the playoffs by losing on the road […]

No rivalry in college football carries the cultural weight or season-defining stakes of Michigan vs Ohio State. Across more than a century, a handful of coaches and players have done more than win games. They’ve helped reshape how both programs approach the matchup, and in some cases changed the rivalry forever. Here are the five […]

If you were (un)fortunate enough to be able to watch the entirety of Michigan State’s 20-17 loss against the Iowa Hawkeyes on Saturday, you were blessed with an interesting case study of the Jonathan Smith era at Michigan State University. On paper, Iowa is a team that is just a few plays away from being […]

Another day in the life of the Big Ten in FEAST WEEK: Rutgers sucks, USC’s mediocre, everything else…eh. FEAST WEEK DAY 1: RECAPS Players Era Festival I’m increasingly angry about this tournament—not specifically because Michigan routed San Diego State and ran up the score, but specifically because the nature of “18 teams playing a fucking […]

TheBuckeyes beat Rutgers by 33 points with both starting wide receivers (and a key backup receiver) tied behind their backs on Saturday. Ohio State’s 42-9 rout of the Scarlet Knights took a while to build up some steam, but the defense’s continued bludgeoning of opponents eventually let the offense catch up. Julian Sayin made good […]

This weekend culminates rivalry week in college football, and that means “The Game” between Ohio State and Michigan. The Game conjures up memories of the Toledo War and the Frostbitten Convention. And it occurs on a weekend with games that have awesome names like “The Iron Bowl” (Alabama-Auburn), “The Civil War” (Oregon-Oregon State), “The Egg […]

One of the wilder stats was brought up ahead of Wisconsin’s trip to No. 1 Michigan State this weekend: going into the series, the then-No. 7 Wisconsin Badgers were 9-2-2 all-time on the road against the top-ranked team when they are also in the top ten. After Friday and Saturday night in East Lansing, Wisconsin […]

Penn State inches closer to bowl eligibility, as Big Ten teams litter both the Coaches Poll and the Associated Press ranking. Ohio State widened their lead at No. 1 in both polls, with other conference teams Indiana (2nd in both polls) Oregon (5th in both polls), Michigan (15th in both polls), and USC (Down to […]

What a weird football experience. After two gut punch losses, the hardest part of this game was going to be getting up against a 3-7 opponent that looks destined to finish 0-9 in the league, Michigan State’s first winless campaign in Big Ten play since going 0-5-1 in 1958. For 55 minutes Iowa looked like […]

No, seriously. I get it. Penn State is only 4-6 with a 1-6 conference record – but just snapped a 6-game losing streak which included three losses against teams currently in the top 10 and just-nudged-out Iowa. They just narrowly missed a huge upset against Indiana and handled a Michigan State team from which Nebraska […]
