Podcasts about Big Ten Network

On this episode of Monday Night Therapy on Corn Nation, host Minnie Hunt and co-host Fred Sacco welcomed an active chat audience for a wide-ranging discussion on Nebraska football. The conversation mixed humor, nostalgia, and analysis, with Fred sporting a vintage 1997 coaches pullover and reminiscing about past Husker gear. Early chatter focused on fall camp updates, the Big Red Preview, and new special teams energy under coach Mike Ekeler. They highlighted Australian punter Archie Wilson's athleticism and arm strength, as well as transfer kicker Kyle Cunanan's powerful leg. Talk shifted to offensive line improvements, with optimism about depth, continuity, and a possible Joe Moore Award bid. Jake Butt of the Big Ten Network and analyst Phil Steele both praised Nebraska's attention to detail and playoff potential, fueling cautious excitement. The duo previewed upcoming opponents, noting that most tough games are at home and only Penn State looms as a clear underdog matchup. Defensive standouts like Vincent Shavers, Marquis Buford, and Oklahoma transfer Dasan McCullough drew attention, as did running backs Emmett Johnson and breakout candidate Makai Nelson. While Minnie projected optimism, Fred tempered expectations, stressing proof on the field. The show closed with playful banter, shirt auctions, and a “Go Big Red” send-off.

In the first hour, Dave Softy Mahler is at Husky Stadium for the UW Spring Game and talking all things Dawgs football, with play-by-play voice Tony Castricone, broadcaster Yogi Roth from the Big Ten Network, and UW's former pass rusher Zion Tupuola-Fetui.

As spring football heads to the final weekend, today's episode of the Y-Option podcast - presented by our founding partner 76 - takes a deep dive into the 2025 NFL Draft plus a preview of the Washington Huskies' Spring Game.While Shedeur Sanders' slide to the 5th round dominated headlines, we celebrate Cam Ward's rise from the FCS to the #1 pick, breakdown Quinn Ewers' journey from a “can't-miss” high school prospect to the final QB selected, and weigh in on the dynamics in the Browns' quarterback room.Also in this episode, Jim Thornby and I discuss:* Oregon's school-record 10 draft picks and why after doing the Ducks' Spring Game, I think Dan Lanning is just getting started when it comes to producing NFL talent* Ashton Jeanty's fit in Las Vegas, why the Raiders are our new favorite NFL team, and why I was hoping Arizona Wildcat Jonah Savaiinaea would end up there too.* Tight end battle: Colston Loveland vs. Tyler Warren - who ya got?* The “Servite to the Top 10” pipeline, featuring now Browns DL Mason Graham and now Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan.* UCLA's defense turning out pros under Ikaika Malloe - it's time to give them their due.* The growing power of the B1G and SEC in the draft — plus, what this year's NFL Draft might have looked like before conference realignment.Finally, I'm off to Seattle for Dawgs After Dark. After completing my deep dive on UW, I believe the 2025 Huskies could be a sleeper in the Big Ten. Year 2 under Jedd Fisch features a roster with over 70 players who have only ever played for him. While 2024 was a tough season, the return of dynamic QB Demond Williams Jr. gives the Dawgs a shot at making real noise. Yes - I said it.Plenty more to come this weekend, and be sure to tune into Big Ten Network on Friday night — it's going to be an electric evening on Montlake.Much love and stay steady,YogiThis episode is executive produced by Jim Thornby and edited by Victor Ren.This podcast is a Best Coast Media production This is a public episode.

Imagine growing up dreaming of playing quarterback in college football, betting on yourself, and then turning that dream into reality. Fast forward a decade, and you're calling plays for one of the most explosive offenses in the nation, wearing the colors of one of the most iconic brands in all of sports and coaching two of the most experienced quarterbacks in the history of college football. That's the 30,000-foot view of Will Stein's football journey.Today on the Y-Option podcast, presented by our founding partner 76, Oregon Ducks offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Will Stein joins us to share the insights and lessons learned throughout his remarkable path in the game, as well as a breakdown on the 2025 Oregon Ducks offense.As someone who also walked-on in college football, I've always been drawn to others who've taken that same leap. Will's story of walking-on at Louisville has become legend in Kentucky. His father was a walk-on too, and that grit and relentless work ethic clearly runs in the family. Those traits earned Will a starting role at quarterback for the Cardinals and led to him becoming a 2023 Broyles Award finalist as the Ducks' OC.What's stood out most to me in getting to know Will, is his deep commitment to family, his passion for the craft, and the discipline that keeps him fully present each day. This episode will resonate with every athlete chasing a dream and every coach grinding before sunrise. His wisdom inspires belief, and his football IQ is a masterclass in growth mindset and high-performance leadership.Draft Day + QB ThoughtsSpeaking of success—the NFL Draft kicks off tonight, and we've got you covered at Y-Option. I've been calling it the “Elite Backup QB Draft,” and I think that label will prove true by Friday and Saturday.One prediction: Tyler Warren is my pick for the most consistent playmaker and the closest thing to a sure thing. And when Cam Ward hears his name called as the #1 overall pick, let's give him a standing ovation. Just six years ago, his father, Calvin, was cold-calling Division III schools looking for an opportunity for his son. Talk about inspiration. How Great Is Ball indeed!Portal Mayhem & College Football TalkWhat's going on in college football? The portal has opened, chaos has ensued, and it feels like jerseys are being retired far too soon. In today's opening segment, Jim Thornby and I bring thoughtful takes to three major storylines lighting up the airwaves:* Nico Iamaleava and what might be college football's first-ever trade. We dive into why it's a win for UCLA and what it means for DeShaun Foster's roster.* Cal Bears, Ron Rivera, and the Portal – Somehow Berkeley is both chaotic and calm. And both can be true.* Retiring Jerseys in Boulder – There's been plenty of debate around Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter. While both are incredible talents, the timing of retiring their jerseys might actually do them a disservice. We explain on today's podcast.I'm headed to Eugene for the Ducks spring game, live on Big Ten Network, alongside Y-Option alums Guy Haberman and Kenjon Barner. Dan Lanning's squad has lost plenty of talent to the NFL, but this roster still boasts future stars. Tune in at 1 PM PST as we break it all down.As always—much love, and stay steady.— YogiThis episode was executive produced by Jim Thornby and edited by Victor Ren.This podcast is a Best Coast Media production This is a public episode.

It's Game Week!Okay, not a real game, but a spring game. And I'm on a flight to Columbus, Ohio to call my first ever game at The Horseshoe for Big Ten Network.Spring football always brings excitement. It's a time of hope, opportunity, and fresh beginnings for every player on the roster.For the Ohio State Buckeyes, this spring is about the 2025 team beginning to write their own story following a thrilling College Football Playoff championship run. The energy around the program is electric, and this weekend gives us a first glimpse of what's to come.On today's Y-Option podcast, presented by our founding partner 76, we dive into a full preview of the Buckeyes. I break down critical position battles and explain why I believe Ryan Day's squad is primed for another CFP run. And here's a spoiler: it's not just because of their talent-rich roster - it's the competitive culture Day has built that could be the difference maker.One of the young men immersed in that environment is freshman quarterback Tavien St. Clair, a hometown kid who grew up less than an hour from Ohio State's campus. Now he's living his dream, wearing scarlet and gray this spring. Tavien and I sat down last summer at the Elite 11 Finals in Los Angeles, and in today's episode, you'll hear that conversation—his journey, his mindset, and the legacy he hopes to build.Reflecting on that conversation reminded me of how special the Elite 11 experience has been for me over nearly two decades.Back in 2009, my first year on the Elite 11 staff, the MVP was Jake Heaps. That class also featured Devin Gardner, Chandler Whitmer, Blake Bell, Nick Montana, and others. Meeting those athletes when they were 17 years old gave me a window into the unique world of top-tier quarterback prospects - a world filled with pressure, passion, and unpredictable journeys.Now heading into my 17th year with Elite 11, we'll share the same message with this year's class that we gave to the ‘09 group and that we spell out in the best-selling book 5-Star QB: “The only thing that's guaranteed is that your path won't go exactly as you envision it.”Looking back on that 2009 class, that truth has played out in so many ways:* Jake Heaps transferred three times before a run in the NFL and is now a head coach in high school & the head coach of Elite 11.* Devin Gardner played both wide receiver and quarterback at Michigan and now shines as a broadcaster with FOX Sports.* Chandler Whitmer played at Illinois and UCONN and now serves as the QB coach at Indiana and in my eyes, is a rising star in the coaching ranks.* Blake Bell won three Super Bowls - as a tight end.* Nick Montana went from Washington to Tulane and today, he's the co-founder and CEO of his own company.Every one of them, like every Elite 11 QB since, imagined a long NFL career. And while not all had the career of Tom Brady or Jared Goff, they each carry incredible stories, filled with grit, growth, and perspective.It's a reminder that behind every 4 or 5-star ranking is a real human story. And here at Y-Option, we're committed to telling those stories and shining a light on who these young athletes are vs who they are told they should be.Hope you enjoy today's episode featuring Buckeye signal-caller Tavien St. Clair - and as we evaluate their talent this Saturday in their spring game, let's all remember that each of the players also have a story worth sharing.Much love, and as always… Stay Steady,YogiThis episode was executive produced by Jim Thornby and edited by Victor RenThis podcast is a Best Coast Media productionY-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication.
