    UCLA begins their first year of Big Ten Play with arguably the most question marks of any team in the conference. Many are writing the Bruins off, but could they maybe surprise some folks? Kevin Balaji of the Bruin Source Podcast gives us insight into the culture and trajectory of the Bruins Program, and why there is hope that Deshaun Foster might restore the program to its former glory.

    State of the Buckeyes: Can Ryan Day Breakthrough in 2024?

    State of the Buckeyes: Can Ryan Day Breakthrough in 2024?

    Ohio State has lost six games in the past three years, and while most programs would be thrilled to be in the playoff hunt and be 33-6 over three seasons, the Buckeyes are tired of almost getting there. Eric Boggs of the OHIO Podcast, and one of the main organizers of the College Huddle, comes to breakdown why Buckeye fans are mad, yet hopeful, that 2024 could be the year that Ohio State gets back to where they once were: Perennial Big Ten Champion, Winning over their rival, and maybe even a National Championship. Plus... we talk some Ohio Foods!

Refreshing Football First Podcast from a Real Big Ten Fan!

I’m a Big Ten fan and I love listening to national college football and Michigan specific football pods. The national guys don’t pay attention to the league beyond the Big 2 or 3. The Michigan specific pods are entertaining but it’s not hard to identify the bias and there are times when you want to hear dispassionate talk about the whole Big Ten!

This podcast is absolutely wonderful for that. Zach knows the whole league. He knows the personalities. He’s not afraid to carry strong opinions that sometimes go against the grain. I’ve been listening for awhile and I really appreciate the genuine nature of this hosts fandom…he was born into it just like I was. Please give this podcast a try, if you’re a big ten fan of any team, I think you’ll enjoy it.

Finally, I saw all of this knowing the the host is an Ohio State fan. But, hey, nobody’s perfect! - YankeeWolverine

Let’s Go RU

Nice to hear Rutgers getting some good talk on the pod. Although their offense still struggles, they can win or lose games like every other team in the B1G outside of the big three. To get to a bowl game with one more W would be a huge plus for this program. Hoping we can finish 7-5!

Interesting, intelligent and fair-minded

I am a Wisconsin fan and like getting a rundown of the Big 10. Zach is Interesting, intelligent and fair-minded. He owns his miss-calls, he praises teams evenly, I feel informed and enjoy listening!
