  2. Thanks, Mike. I trust your insight, and I hope (can't let Hugh Bris in the door) you are spot on. Pac-12 and West Coast college sports guru Jon Wilner agrees with you. I'd feel better if the B12 wasn't 3-0 in its bowl games to date. Good wins by BYU and Houston. TCU took advantage of SC not finishing. Shocking, right? Wreck Tech!
  3. All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go, I'm standing here outside Sankey's door, Even out here, I can hear Greg sigh. My teams that were ranked are on the floor, I can't listen to Diego no more, I hope you can't hear my B1G goodbye. 😁😍🤣
  4. If you don't have Uncle Phil's jet, save your dough for the Peach Bowl in Atlanta, or a return trip to Miami?
  5. And A&M didn't defeat an SEC opponent with a winning record. 🤪
  6. The B1G Live show on the Big Ten Network (BTN) has a preview of the Cotton, Rose, and Moore Importantly, the Orange Bowl! Some great pregame analysis and interviews. Kenyon Barner is one of the hosts for the Orange Bowl preview. The programs are being repeated on BTN; check for B1G Live broadcast times. WRECK TECH!
  7. End this Bowl Extravaganza and have an FBS Playoff managed by the NCAA. Money is not evil. The love of money is evil. Orange Bowl tickets are going for much less money than the semifinal matchup between Montana and Montana State in Bozeman, Montana. Miami is a pro sports city. The U rarely sells out Hard Rock Stadium. Stop E$PN from serving two masters.

  11. This article is not Orange Bowl-specific, but it is an interesting look at how defenses have caught up to offenses, and the difference from the (real) Pac-12 and the Big Ten, especially for Lincoln Riley at USC. https://trojanswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/trojans/football/2025/12/30/lincoln-riley-usc-better-football-coach-oklahoma/87871325007/?utm_source=smg-trojanswire-strada&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=SMGbaseline&utm
  12. We've seen a change in the 2nd year of the 12-team PO. Two road teams won 1st first-round games. Now, will one or more of the four Rip Van Winkle-like nappers win a game?

Top four playoff seeds eager to show the...Last year was the first for the expanded 12-team playoff, and the top four seeds with first-round byes — Oregon, Georgia, Bosie State and Arizona State — all lost in the quarterfinals.
  13. Thank you, Mike, for another terrific, in-depth article. I'll never forget that Crabtree catch, made more indelible by Chris Fowler on the sideline with his mouth wide open, in shock, I think? Lots of respect between Dan and McGuire. As Dan inquires, 'Why is this game being played in Miami?' (E$PN 🤬) That'll Be the Day when ESPN 'dies' and a quarter final is played in Lubbock, with the semifinals coming up Roses with a dose of Sugar on the 1st. Note: In Miami, all tortillas thrown over the line will be delivered (by Diego Pavia) to the home of Doctor Mendoza.😁 Will the 2025-26 PO be a bowl of joy for Campbell? I hope not. But if so, it will be a B1G return on investment. Uncle Phil deserves better. Don't Horse Around, Wreck Tech!
  14. I don't like agreeing with (missing) Linc Riley, but ... ESPN.comRiley blames Notre Dame for ending USC rivalryUSC coach Lincoln Riley said Notre Dame failed to follow through on its pledge to play the Trojans "anytime, anywhere."
  15. The 'Loyal Opposition' has the B1G going 3-0 in quarterfinal games. https://trojanswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/trojans/football/2025/12/29/quarterfinals-2025-2026-cfp-bold-predictions/87903887007/?utm_source=smg-trojanswire-strada&utm_medium=email&utm_cam
  16. Only because you've never been inside a Vegemite sandwich. 😁

  21. It's a new Day. Ohio State's title last season is sullied because the starting QB transferred in? 😏 Transfer QBs starting in the PO quarterfinals - Oregon, Dante Moore - Ohio State, Julian Sayin - Miami, Carson Beck - Ole Miss, Trinidad Chambliss - Indiana, Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza. If the NFL had unrestricted free agency, you'd see the same. Just Win, Baby! You don't get extra credit for recruiting a QB out of high school than you do for recruiting a QB out of the portal.
  22. Thanks, ND. I agree with your assessment. I expect Michigan AD Warde Manuel feels like many Ducks fans did when Oregon caught the last flight out to the Big Ten. B1G sighs of relief. After a botched search, Penn State hired a coach who is a great fit in State College. After another scandal, Michigan hired a coach with a sterling reputation who was surprisingly available. Any new hire comes with questions, but in both cases, I think the employer lucked out. Does 'Wreck Tech' have a familiar ring? UGA, Get Smart and Diss Miss Ole Miss.
