I have been a regular listener to this podcast for years now and have not yet submitted a review. It’s time to rectify that mistake.
This podcast is perfect for the college football fan who already listens to too many college football podcasts.
Sure, you could listen to a college football podcast that actually knows which players play for which teams, or a podcast that does not rely upon AI for its analysis, or a podcast that actually covers all of the teams in its conference with depth and in... more
Dave and Ryan are the Chip and Lincoln of podcasters. They were great once upon a time when playing in a mediocre (albeit fun as hell) league, but since joining the b18, it has been downhill. Much like their favorite coaches, Dave and Ryan tend to show bits of genius with their famous Disney lists followed by an epic bad decisions like using AI for entire segments. They are saved by the fact they simulcast from the heart of big 10 country in LA. Do better or don’t but make sure my fiance gets... more
Because it has forced me to leave a review. Do you know that you can’t do reviews on Apple from a PC? You have to use your friggin phone, I hate typing on my friggin phone. Quick question Apple, my phone is this big and my laptop is this big. Guess which one I would rather waste time typing a frggin sarcastic review on? Ok, now on to the review. I love the fact that David says he can’t tell the difference between a polar bear and a koala. I can imagine the 911 call- David “ help, I’m being attac... more
As surprising as it might sound, this used to be a college football podcast. Who knows what it's about now. These two knucleheads insist on talking every week about something called a "Pur-due" which I can only assume is a tacky, cat based hair style from when Dave was a college student in the 70s. But even though this podcast isn't about college football anymore, can we really say college football is about college football? When my beloved Oski has to ship out 4 games a year to states that woul... more
After the collapse of the Pac-12 I stopped listening to this show as it no longer covered my team. But I decided to tune in for an off-season episode. I couldn’t believe my ears... what I heard was crisp, well-produced audio, playing what appeared to be easily understandable complete sentences. I started thinking the show had used that BIG-money to professionalize and then I realized I was just listening to an ad. Fortunately, the show remains as mediocre as ever! Keep it up! I’ve listened to ev... more

A lively, analysis-driven show focused on Big Ten football, with a strong emphasis on conference realignment, NIL and roster dynamics, and weekly previews of teams and schedules. Discussions often blend data-driven breakdowns with light banter, fan interactions, and sponsor segments, making it approachable for listeners who enjoy both sharp football insight and casual, humorous commentary. Noteworthy traits include long-running chemistry between hosts, frequent cross-topic tangents (gambling talk, World Cup banter, and pop culture), and a consistent preference for practical betting angles and conference-wide storytelling. The format tends to mix in-season breakdowns with off-season updates, appealing to fans who want both depth and personal... more
