[Bryan Fuller] On the roundtable this week: A lot of basketball talk Most of it quite discontent This was obviously before the Indiana game Ed and Craig say things about Michigan's defense that I strenously disagree with I'd get in a knife fight with Craig if he wasn't in Hawaii THE USUAL LINKS Helpful iTunes subscribe link General podcast feed link Direct download link What's with the theme music?

hockey is not actually discussed but this is a lovely shot [Patrick Barron] On the roundtable this week: Sam's back He says "Greg Sankey" and I end up yelling about casual sex and drunken Tuesdays.

[Bryan Fuller] On the roundtable this week: Not great gameplan, Bob. I compare Ed to a twitter egg because he says "I liked Durkin before I got more data" like twitter eggs do.

Ohio State Recap Gimmicky Top Five: 2016 No-QB X-Factors A generic top five but one that points towards the future instead of dwelling on the past. QB is excluded as too obvious. "Inside The Crooked Blue Line" With 247's Steve Lorenz Fallout from the big recruit weekend. Also Fallout 4. Stick to sports. Basketball Chatter Atlantis: why. Rotation: huh. Robinson: gives and gives and gives and takes and takes and takes. THE USUAL LINKS Helpful iTunes subscribe link General podcast feed link Direct download link What's with the theme music?

57 minutes [Bryan Fuller] OFFENSE Man, Rudock is a different guy. Legit top shelf passing offense already. Now, about the ground game… DEFENSE A rather thorough debacle. BASKETBALL A lot of complaining about how dumb preseason tournaments are. Michigan played three games in an ill-lit ballroom in front of 500 people. This does not make me want to go to the Bahamas. It makes me dislike the Bahamas. Also, basketball talk.

Penn State Recap Appreciating Michigan's pass protection against the #1 sack defense in the country, albeit without Carl Nassib. Peppers tailback chatter, because of course. Charlton to buck, except at that point it's a DE pretty much. Ross was born a bit too late. Gimmicky Top Five: Things Urban Should Have Done Saturday plus BONUS Originally this was going to be "Most Frustrating Losses By Teams You're Not A Fan Of." Neither Ace nor I could come up with anything even in the same building as the OSU/MSU game, so we switched it up. Our guest, Reid McCarthy of Ann Arbor Elder Law, came locked and loaded with an excellent set of answers for the first one, though, so his list is that. And good. And shames us because we couldn't think of anything. Ross Fulton Of Buckeye Grove Ross is the best OSU analyst out there and one of the best across college football. Ace's job when it comes to FFFF posts would be so much easier if there were 13 of him spread across the league, but alas. We talk with Ross about The Game. Ben McCready Bennie Oosterbaan's godson joins us to talk about the number retirement ceremony coming up, the Legends program in general, and what it's like when a Michigan fan paints the portrait of Appalachian State's president. "Inside The Crooked Blue Line" With 247's Steve Lorenz Michigan has an absolutely massive recruiting weekend coming up, so we decide to talk about that. Also Isaiah Hole's sweater.

Link is here: https://t.co/iGucRmnZD8 — Josh Henschke (@HenschkeScout) November 23, 2015 1 hour 31 minutes [Eric Upchurch] OFFENSE Rudock still locked in. The receiving corps is legit good. Appreciating De'Veon Smith's blocking. DEFENSE Back to the salt mines for opposition running games after the first carry. Poor Hackenberg. Peppers still a little rickety in coverage. AIRING OF GRIEVANCES Refs, punt block, Ohio State gameplan, basketball, announcers… we cover every single complainy complaint we can muster. TALKIN' BIG TEN WITH JAMIEMAC Rutgers played Army! Did you know that? We spend like 20 minutes talking about that game and zero minutes bewailing OSU's game plan against MSU.

Indiana Recap THAT WAS FINE Gimmicky Top Five: Things That Seem Innocuous But Are Secretly Dangerous This segment always finds various people tweeting us things that are wonderfully dada out of context. @AceAnbender Triscuits were on a 2 for $5 sale at the grocery last night. I decided to keep it to one box. — Rick Masters (@nedflinders) November 17, 2015 Anthony Ciatti On Hockey This year's hockey outfit is a lot like the previous two or three: individually talented but somehow not all there. Ton of possession, ton of odd-man breaks ceded. Very practical rules changes that should definitely be implemented are also discussed. Cari Greene On Penn State We welcome in Cari Greene of Black Shoe Diaries to talk Penn State. The Nittany Lions have had an up and down season but have recovered from a seemingly disastrous start to be… okay. Catch us Mondays 5-7 on 1050 WTKA.

1 hour 18 minutes [Bryan Fuller] OFFENSE Rudock as jaeger. Run game as meh. #Buttzone. DEFENSE Welp. Bad day to lose Glasgow; IU's very legit line; Delano Hill with the save. SPECIAL TEAMS AND GAME THEORY Harbaugh's efficient use of the clock at the end of both halves was excellent. Special teams faltering some. BASKETBALL TAKES By this juncture I had not seen the NMU game since a hockey game transpired simultaneously, but Ace did so I badger him about what takeaways he had. TALKIN' BIG TEN WITH JAMIEMAC Jamie's Disgusting Sports Bigamy Week is examined in detail, until we can stand it no longer. Events of the league. What will happen next week against Penn State. Nebraska apparently played Rutgers? MUSIC "Across 110th Street" "The Final Countdown (cover)", Stuart Crout "Creep (cover)," echeron "Enter Sandman (cover)," rawuke "Psycho Killer (cover)," Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain This week we learned that 1) everything is covered on ukulele and that 2) The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain is massively and deservedly popular.
