This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.splitzoneduo.comIt was the College GameDay interview heard around the world, if only because it was forced down your ears. Richard and Alex talk with Extra Points publisher Matt Brown about what we think went into ESPN's decision to have Senator Ted Cruz on College GameDay (a reasonable choice) for a barely-interrupted stump speech in support of the bill being pushed by noted GameDay panelist Nick Saban. Is this a big corporate influence operation, something simpler, or much ado about nothing? We cover that and a handful more topics on this version of the Extra Points/SZD Sports Business Hour, a recurring feature around here:* 0:52: Why did ESPN lend its time to Cruz and decline to check any of his claims as he took up 10 of the most valuable minutes in sports TV?* 16:53: A lot of FCS buy games feel even uglier than normal right now, and there's probably an economic reason for that. Is this tenable?* 28:03: Rutgers obviously needs to split with Greg Schiano, but … can they afford it? Let's discuss an outrageously bad financial situation* 32:36: Florida State fires its athletic director. What do we make of that?Producer: Anthony Vito
Greg Schiano's team was not ready to play and it was one of the worst coached games in his career. Four interceptions inside the BC 35 and failing to convert on 4th down in scoring position were killers. While the defense generated three takeaways, far too many blown coverages in this game. With Rutgers 0-2, all hope is lost and the dark days are in full swing once again. Schiano 2.0 is as good as over and until a change is made, the future for this program is bleak.#rutgersfootball
The season is done. And so is Schiano in all likelihood.Rutgers had Boston College begging to give the game away and we still couldn't take it. After a brutal 28-21 loss, I'm breaking down the two things that can't coexist in winning college football: crushing turnovers and an offense that coaches like it's afraid of its own quarterback.I get into the ultra-conservative Rutgers football play calling that set the tone early and never truly changed until it was too late. I talk through the repetitive mesh looks, the refusal to stretch the field, and the sequence that still makes no sense: getting a huge takeaway, driving into scoring position, then calling four straight runs up the middle and turning it over on downs. That's not just a bad series. It's a philosophy problem.Then there's AJ Surace's first start. 4 interceptions will dominate the box score, but the bigger story is what it says about readiness, pocket presence, and development. I also hit the defense: awful first-half execution, some second-half life thanks to turnovers, and the same old issues with missed coverages and running quarterbacks. Finally, I zoom out to the uncomfortable stuff: Greg Schiano's future, the NIL and sponsorship reality, the size of the buyout, and what USC next week could do to an already exhausted fan base.Subscribe, share the show with a Rutgers fan who's feeling it, and leave a review with your take.Send fan mailJersey Guy Sports is available on all podcasting platforms.

Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and he's done pretending the Jets have a better offense than the Giants. Shaun makes the case position by position, arguing the Giants have the edge at quarterback, tight end and offensive line, while Malik Nabers gives them at least a push against Garrett Wilson and the Jets' receivers. Tiki weighs in on Nabers' massive ceiling and the debate over which New York offense is actually more dangerous. The conversation also turns to major Pro Football Hall of Fame voting changes and what they could mean for Tiki, Eli Manning and Tom Coughlin. Plus, Rutgers' ugly opener raises more questions about Greg Schiano, callers debate the Giants' chances in the NFC East, and Labor Day weekend sparks an argument over whether it's already way too early for pumpkin season.
Rutgers delivers a humiliating season-opening disaster against UMass, and Shaun Morash believes the damage to Greg Schiano may be unrecoverable. Shaun is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they rip apart a loss that turned Rutgers into a national punchline, debate whether Schiano can possibly recover, and hear from frustrated fans already canceling football trips after the collapse. Tiki also looks back on his own memorable college football moments at Virginia, including heartbreaking finishes against Michigan and Texas and the legendary upset of Florida State. Plus, the Yankees get some help in the standings and face a crucial weekend against the Padres, while the Giants conversation turns to Malik Nabers, Malachi Fields, Jaxson Dart, and the brewing debate over Nabers versus Garrett Wilson.
Rutgers suffers a stunning humiliation against UMass, leaving Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber questioning how Greg Schiano and the program recover from one of the most embarrassing losses imaginable. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and the Rutgers disaster quickly turns into a larger debate about Schiano's future and whether anything short of a major rebound can erase the damage. The Giants-Jets rivalry heats up as Shaun argues the Giants have the better overall offense, with Malik Nabers' ceiling, Jaxson Dart at quarterback and New York's tight end and offensive line advantages fueling the fight. Plus, the Yankees enter a critical Padres series with a chance to close the gap on the Rays, while major changes to the Pro Football Hall of Fame voting process spark another NFL debate.
Rutgers opens the season with a humiliating 37-21 loss to UMass, and Shaun Morash calls it an unrecoverable disaster for Greg Schiano. Shaun is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they rip into Rutgers for getting dominated at home by a team that entered on a 16-game losing streak. The embarrassment goes beyond the scoreboard. Shaun argues Schiano should step down, questions why top New Jersey recruits would still choose Rutgers, and even blasts the postgame fireworks after such an ugly defeat. Tiki says there is only one way Schiano can survive the fallout: start winning games Rutgers is not supposed to win.
The Rutgers humiliation keeps getting worse as frustrated New Jersey fans unload on Greg Schiano after the stunning loss to UMass. Callers call the defeat a stain on the state, blast Rutgers for paying UMass to come in and beat them, and question how Schiano can possibly recover from such an embarrassing opener. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they compare the Rutgers disaster to Appalachian State's legendary upset of Michigan and hear from a caller with a remarkable personal connection to that 2007 game. The conversation also briefly turns to Pablo Torre's investigations, the Knicks, the Dodgers, and how difficult it is for college offensive linemen to break into the NFL.

The Scarlet Knights were thoroughly outcoached and outplayed in an all-time embarrassing loss to UMass in the 2026 season opener. Turnovers, penalties, an inability to run, another terrible defensive performance result in the worst loss of Greg Schiano's career at Rutgers. With a massive buyout, AD Keli Zinn has a huge dilemma with not a lot of options at the moment to end the Schiano era and rebuild the program. A full rapid reaction here.#rutgersfootball

This game was about as miserable an experience as a Rutgers fan can have, and I have had enough!A 30-point favorite should not be getting booed by the second quarter, yet that's where Rutgers football landed in a stunning 37-21 loss to UMass. I walk through how the night unraveled and why the final score flatters Rutgers, from the early tone in the stadium to the mistakes that kept piling up. If you follow Big Ten football, college football coaching, or Rutgers athletics, this one raises the uncomfortable question: is this a bad opener or a sign the program is sliding backward? I get into the quarterback controversy at the center of the fallout. Dylan Lonergan wins the starting job, then turns it over 4 times in his first start, and I debate what the staff is seeing versus what the game is screaming. The bigger issue is urgency: when do you make a change, how do you protect your team from spiraling, and why did A.J. Surace only get meaningful snaps at the very end? Those choices feed into a larger evaluation of Greg Schiano as a game-day coach and whether he can adapt fast enough for today's college football. The criticism doesn't stop on offense. I break down the defensive breakdowns under new coordinator Travis Johansson, including missed tackles, wide-open throws, and the brutal reality that UMass barely had to punt until late. I also hit the special teams lapses that quietly swing field position, then zoom out to the fan experience: a Thursday 6 p.m. kickoff, extreme heat, and the feeling that loyal Rutgers fans are paying for the same disappointment on repeat.

In this college football podcast episode, we continue our three-part 2026 Big Ten preview with a closer look at nine teams, beginning with the three programs most likely to determine the conference championship. Oregon has assembled another loaded roster, but is this finally the year Dan Lanning’s program gets over the hump? Can Ohio State maintain its defensive standard while building a new offensive identity under Arthur Smith? And how successfully can defending national champion Indiana reload around Josh Hoover and a wave of transfer portal additions? We make our Big Ten championship predictions and examine the questions that could separate Oregon, Ohio State and Indiana once the College Football Playoff race begins. Then we turn toward the conference’s crowded middle. Is Iowa’s favorable schedule enough to overcome another uncertain quarterback situation? Can Washington’s promising but unproven roster deliver against better competition? And what happens when Nebraska pairs the unpredictable Anthony Colandrea with Dana Holgorsen? We also discuss the stakes surrounding Luke Fickell at Wisconsin, Greg Schiano’s attempt to rebuild the Rutgers defense and Purdue’s difficult path toward meaningful progress. Plus: a spirited disagreement over Iowa, a possible resurgences for the RVO offense, suspicious Rutgers sandwich spots, the official installation of Ty as Chief Colandrea Officer, and more.Support the show!: https://www.patreon.com/solidverbalSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's a quote in psychology I keep coming back to: the core of optimism is resilience. I've thought about that quote for years, and this week, sitting across from Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano, I had a hunch that that very quote would resonate with him. So I did the only thing I do in these Y-Option podcasts: ask questions I don't know the answer to.I've known Coach Schiano for over 20 years. First as a wideout at Pitt, then these last couple years covering Big Ten football. This conversation, though, was different because I was embedded within the Scarlet Knights program for the day and what a day it was.I got to sit in on his team meeting, watch Coach Schiano look his players in the eyes and bridge a football lesson to a life lesson in the same breath. And at the end of an epic day with the team, staff and program he and I sat down, and Coach Schiano took me all the way back to where his leadership began: his kitchen table. And that is where today's Y-Option podcast, fueled by our founding sponsor 76, keeping you on the GO GO GO, begins.Coach Schiano grew up in an Italian household in Paterson, New Jersey, where his parents taught him and his three siblings one thing above all: you get up, you go to work, and some days it isn't pleasant but you keep showing up. The standard, even before it was ever spoken, was simple — no matter what, protect your family.That's not a throwaway line for him. It's the whole building now. “Family is everything to me in this building,” he said. And he means it literally, as he's now recruiting the sons of players he coached at Rutgers when they were in the Big East while currently coaching with his own three sons on this year's staff. Full circle doesn't begin to cover it.This is the line that stuck with me most: “You can have a goal and at the same time have a purpose.” Greg's goal is a national championship at Rutgers. His purpose is different.He is driven to make sure that the young men who walk into the Rutgers program leave as grown men. Husbands. Fathers. People who can figure it out when nobody's telling them what to do next. In this era of players getting paid, transferring and being told things from others that may not be accurate I have to say that watching Coach Schiano teach his players the realities of LIFE and how football can teach all of us how to navigate life was one of the most refreshing parts of my off-season.He didn't plan on coaching, by the way. He got cut playing in the CFL, came home, signed up for the LSAT, and was on his way to law school when his high school coach — practically a second father to him — talked him into helping out on the sideline instead. That coach later “fired” him, on purpose, so Greg would go be a graduate assistant and learn the business the right way. That GA year? 1989. At Rutgers. Where he told me, without blinking, that even back then, he was building his coaching staff for this program in his head.Chop.If you've followed this program at all, you know the word. Here's where it actually comes from: 1999, Miami, a sports psychologist named Dr. Kevin Elko telling the staff a story about a guy in the woods with nothing but an axe. It sat dormant for six years. Then in 2005, Rutgers blew a 28-7 fourth quarter lead at Illinois and lost in overtime. Greg couldn't sleep on the flight home. He remembered the story, upon landing he sent a GA to Home Depot for an axe, had it painted red, and walked it into the team meeting still wet with paint. We're all in the woods. We can lay down, or we pick a tree and chop until it falls. Rutgers went on a run and made a bowl game. The axe, and the word, never left.Finally, Rutgers has both hands free.For most of his 18 years split across two stints as head coach, Coach Schiano described competing “with one arm tied behind his back.” That's changing. He talked about vertical alignment: from president to athletic director to head coach, all pointed at the same goal, for the first time in his tenure. It's showing up in real terms: Rutgers retained all three of their must-keep players this offseason, including a receiver who very nearly left before Greg reminded him who he was and where he was from. “You're a difference maker. You're gonna leave a legacy,” he told him. He stayed. That conversation with KJ Duff is coming up later this week so be sure to subscribe to our YouTube page.We also talked about his three coaching trees and biggest influences: Joe Paterno at Penn State, Dave Wannstedt and Butch Davis out of the Jimmy Johnson lineage at Miami and Chicago, Dick Anderson at Rutgers. We talked about Pete Carroll and impact of our book, Win Forever, and the sabbatical Greg took in 2014 that reshaped how he leads now. Demanding, but flexible enough to let a coach leave for four hours for his daughter's recital. And we talked about his three sons, all working in the building, all grinding it out the long way.He just turned 60. Says he feels 30. And when I asked him about the word “legacy” landing on him after everything he's built here, he wouldn't take it yet. “I'm only comfortable with it because we haven't started yet,” he said. “The best times for Rutgers football are ahead of us.”I believe it.Much love and stay steady,YogiY-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication.

It's here! The mid-2026 Jersey Guy Sports Raves and Rants podcast! Here I talk about the things or people I am happy about, as well as those not so much.A New York sports fan can hold two truths at once: you can be genuinely grateful for what your teams give you, and still be furious about what they take away. That's the energy I bring on Jersey Guy Sports with our mid-2026 raves and rants, bouncing from pure joy to total disbelief across the Knicks, Yankees, Giants, Rangers, and Rutgers. I start with the high that still doesn't feel real: the New York Knicks winning a championship. We talk about what it means to end a long title drought, the playoff comebacks that turned into instant city folklore, and why that 2026 run felt like a forever moment. Then I pivot to the people who define New York expectations, including Aaron Judge's massive value to the Yankees even when the postseason scars linger, and why Jalen Brunson's late-game shot-making makes him the exact player you want when everything tightens up. From there, I hit Rutgers football and the tough balance between culture and wins under Greg Schiano, plus the one thing we can brag about without hesitation: the Rutgers game day atmosphere in Piscataway, from tailgates to boardwalk vibes to night-game visuals. I also show love to Igor Shesterkin as a Rangers backbone, and to Cody Bellinger for doing the unglamorous work that keeps the Yankees from leaking runs and opportunities. Then it's rant time: what I think is holding teams back, why replay review is draining the life out of sports, and the decisions and performances that drive fans up a wall. If you've got your own list, you're going to have opinions. Subscribe to Jersey Guy Sports, share this with a fellow fan, and leave a review.

J.T. Barrett didn't have the strongest arm. He wasn't the fastest quarterback Ohio State has ever had. But when The Game arrived every November, there was nobody Buckeye Nation trusted more. In this third installment of the Michigan Killers series, we revisit Barrett's remarkable career against Michigan—from his heartbreaking broken ankle in 2014, to the dominant win in Ann Arbor in 2015, the unforgettable double-overtime thriller in 2016, and his courageous final rivalry game in 2017 while battling a knee injury. Featuring stories and quotes from Urban Meyer, Ryan Day, Greg Schiano, Terry McLaurin, Parris Campbell, Tony Alford, Maurice Hurst, and more, this episode explores why Barrett earned the respect of teammates, coaches, and even opponents. He wasn't just a quarterback. He was a leader. And he helped define one of the greatest eras in Ohio State football history. In this episode: Barrett's rise from three-star recruit to Ohio State legend The 2014 Michigan game and season-ending ankle injury 2015 domination in Ann Arbor The unforgettable 2016 "Spot" game Playing through injury in 2017 Why teammates called him the ultimate leader Barrett's lasting legacy in The Game Subscribe for more Buckeye football history, recruiting, game analysis, and daily Ohio State coverage.

David Anderson and I discuss the state of Rutgers football following Spring Camp. On offense there is continuity in the system under OC Kirk Ciarocca, a changing of the guard at QB, two elite playmakers return, but plenty of questions on the offensive line. On defense, a completely new coaching staff but one that has been successful together before along with all new personnel as well. Can the program take a step forward this season and if they don't, what would that mean for Greg Schiano. There are more questions than answers at this stage of the offseason. Listen and watch to this marathon episode for our thoughts on the program.#rutgersfootball

-College Football News' Pete Fiutak put out his 26 key questions for the B1G in 2026, and along with asking if Matt Rhule can ever get itgoing at Nebraska….he also said he believes Rhule has the hottest seat in the conference with his 19-19 record-Fiutak says that Luke Fickell is an obvious choice as a contestant for Rhule for the hot seat, but Rhule's seat is warmer than both GregSchiano and Lincoln Riley….when you look around the B1G, would you agree with the assessment?xAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
