    Pigskin: Week 7 Recap, Wisconsin at UCLA, Penn St at Michigan, & Ohio St at Indiana

    Bowden, Ian, and Korbin are back with the Week 7 recap! On this show, they’ll share their thoughts on the Wisconsin at UCLA, Penn State at Michigan, and Ohio State at Indiana games. First up, the guys break down Wisconsin at UCLA. This was a slow, methodical game featuring plenty of defense, very reminiscent of the Big Ten West days. UCLA moved the ball well through the air, setting up some touchdown runs! Can UCLA keep this up and go undefeated? Next, they recap the Penn State at Michigan game. Another ugly game, but Michigan showed some new life with backup QB Tommy Carr getting his shot in the second half. He didn’t seem to miss a beat and was ready to go when his number was called. Will this new life for Michigan carry them to a win against Indiana next week? To wrap things up, Bowden, Ian, and Korbin will talk about Ohio State at Indiana. This was another defensive battle that left both teams’ quarterbacks banged up. Indiana’s Hoover was hurting on nearly every pass he threw late in the game, while Sayin injured his shoulder and is now out for several weeks. How will Ohio State move forward with its backup QB? Now it’s your turn to join the conversation! Who impressed you most in Week 7, which team has the most to prove, and what do you think will happen in next week’s biggest matchups? Share your predictions, hot takes, and reactions with us! We want to hear what YOU think. Catch the full Week 7 recap with Bowden, Ian, and Korbin as they break down all the action, debate what’s next, and get you ready for another exciting weekend of college football. It’s been a chaotic weekend of football, and the guys have plenty to say. Tune in, join the conversation, and let us know where you stand. ENJOY!

    Pigskin: Week 4 Recap, Coaching Controversy & Potential Realignment

    Bowden & Korbin are back with their Week 4 recap — plus a few big off‑field storylines. Today’s show covers potential American Conference realignment, the Mike Locksley firing rumors, and recaps of USC at Oregon, Wisconsin at Penn State, and Iowa at Michigan. They open with the American Conference realignment buzz, where Miami (OH), James Madison, and UConn have reportedly approached the league about joining — with rumored buy‑in offers reaching $30 million. Next, the guys dive into Maryland’s rough performance this week. Rumors are swirling that head coach Mike Locksley has been fired, though nothing official has been released.Is moving on from Locksley the right call for the Terrapins? Then it’s on to the game recaps, starting with USC at Oregon. Ducks QB Dante Moore went down early, leaving the offense in the hands of Nebraska transfer Dylan Raiola. Raiola settled in quickly and guided Oregon to a dominant win. Up next is Wisconsin at Penn State. In the preview, Bowden & Korbin expected Wisconsin to hang around before fading late — but instead, the Badgers looked legitimately strong and stole a huge road win in Happy Valley. To close out the show, they break down Iowa at Michigan. Bowden’s Hawkeyes came out on top, meaning Korbin had to honor their wager by wearing a Hawkeye hat. Both agreed it was an ugly, chaotic game with wild plays popping up out of nowhere. A great Week 4 show. ENJOY!
