Podcast appearances and mentions of tony petitti

In this college football podcast episode, Ralph Russo from The Athletic joins us to break down the complex College Football Playoff negotiations happening behind closed doors between the Big Ten, SEC and other conferences. Our conversation centers on how the number of SEC conference games is driving the debate, explores the Big Ten's push for automatic qualifiers, and examines why these meetings keep happening without real progress.Ralph explains the power dynamics between Tony Petitti and Greg Sankey, why ESPN might not want playoff expansion, and how Brett Yormark is trying to wedge the SEC away from the Big Ten. Plus, the "reimagined" conference championship weekend, whether a breakaway league is possible, and why this feels like college football's most charged moment since the BCS era.Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction05:02 - The SEC Decision Tree16:19 - Power dynamics: Who's really running these meetings?27:26 - The Unpopularity of SEC & Big Ten Power36:35 - Reporting challenges and ESPN's actual role vs. perception42:08 - The future of playoff expansion and what's next51:19 - Outro and preview season setup_____A fan of our college football podcast?

Tiffany, Mike, and Beau react to SEC commissioner Greg Sankey and Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti meeting to discuss a plan to expand the College Football Playoff, and change the way teams are seeded in the 12-team College Football Playoff this fall.

HR2 - NFL salary cap increase helps Falcons in multiple ways In hour two Tiffany, Mike, and Beau continue to react to the NFL providing clubs a projected salary cap range of $277.5 million to $281.5 million per club for the 2025 season, which would be a salary cap increase of $22.1 to $26.1 million dollars from what the cap was for the 2024 season. The Morning Shift crew also talks about whether or not the NFL salary cap increase will help the Falcons land some big name free agents when free agency starts. Tiffany, Mike, and Beau continue hour two by reacting to SEC commissioner Greg Sankey and Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti meeting to discuss a plan to expand the College Football Playoff, and change the way teams are seeded in the 12-team College Football Playoff this fall. The Morning Shift crew also reacted to the NFL giving an update to the league and some teams' international schedule. Tiffany, Mike, and Beau closed out hour two by continuing to preview the Atlanta Hawks' game tonight against the Orlando Magic and explain why the Hawks' first four post All-Star break games are very important, and then diving into the life of Mike Johnson and getting Mike'd Up!

-Finebaum was on ESPN yesterday morning and said that the NCAA is a mess—which everyone agrees with—and that the constant race to get the next big revenue deal for each conference is not a sign of unity, where as the NFL is always “swimming in the same direction,” with every team getting the financial security of the successful league. -Also, the Nebraska women hosted Iowa last night…did the Huskers sweep the season series vs. the Hawkeyes?Show sponsored by SANDHILLS GLOBALOur Sponsors:* Check out Hims: https://hims.com/EARLYBREAKAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Things Discussed: Mostly we discussed the Dellinger Leak and Michigan's response to the NCAA re: Signgate. I'll have a UV later today on it. Michigan has a very—extremely—strong case that they did very little wrong. Most of the in-person scouting was for teams not on their schedule, all of the evidence for a coverup is flimsy: Sherrone deleted texts: Only off his phone, because he knew they had imaging, those were provided to the NCAA, and they were completely innocuous. Mike Hart was told that Stalions was "extra" which: yeah. That's it! That's all the evidence! Most of the report is just a glimpse into how sign operations worked—Stalions was sharing signs with Rutgers and Nebraska, who just used wristbands when they played Michigan. It also showed just how marginal sign-decoding was: Sherrone was told to change his signs before Ohio State and said he'll "think about it," Partridge yelled at Stalions about trying to use a team manager, etc. It has a name! Signal organization stupid thing, or S.O.S.T. NCAA's position is basically "We know we broke our bylaws and this isn't remotely just, but we need to humiliate you because look how mad all the Bielemas are." Michigan has requested a prehearing because the NCAA has at least one in-house source that refused to be identified, which we've just now learned is apparently against NCAA bylaws. No idea if the COI has to grant that prehearing The process is meant to be collaborative; it completely breaks down when the two sides have entirely different realities and goals. That's a big problem for Michigan because the NCAA's purpose here isn't to be reasonable or just. The fear here is NCAA's main motivation is relevance; they can't do anything about paying players, which has been their raison d'être, so this is the one field where they can demonstrate any kind of power. Legal challenge? Seems they'll go that route if things proceed as they seem to be. Guessing that's what the NCAA wants so they can placate the Bielemas by saying "it was the courts, not us." Seth: don't underestimate the difficulty of winning this case in court. Like the Tony Petitti thing, when it's not about constitutionality or the law, courts often default to whatever the agreement between parties is, and Michigan's agreed to be under NCAA judgment whether it's fair or not. With Tennessee: 1) It was their attorney general flexing power on behalf of the only thing his state cares about, which isn't who Dana Nessel is or how Michigan politics work, and 2) that was about paying players, which got into a constitutionality issue of denying the free trade of services. Guess how it plays out: NCAA goes overboard, Michigan takes them to court, court takes a long time, and when it's settled nobody cares because it's been too long and we all have more important things going on. Story Time: Just like 1928! Non-S.O.S.T. thing: Jim Knowles off to PSU for a lot of money! What does it mean? It means anyone who can is getting away from Ohio State fans.

This episode begins with conversation with friend and former fellow KQRS cast member as I inform Bob about NIL and all the news and mis-information surroundings the topic. After I talked to Bob, I moved on to today topic the on coming power flex from Tony Petitti of the B1G and Greg Stanky of the SEC. They want to control of the CFP, how many teams from what conference get in. They already will get 59% of the revenue from the CFP games to split between them. Petitti and Stanky want control of governance over all NCAA championships. Including the basketball tournament. Some other commissioners are starting to grumble and openly and say go ahead, we're calling your bluff. Go and take your ball and suffer the consequence's. Some believe that if Petitti and Stanky did move their conferences out the CFP and NCAA, they will destroy college sports as we know it and they will become the 2 largest sports villains in sports history.  Lastly, Breaking news involving Ohio State and conference rival Penn State.

On Friday, the Big Ten and SEC jointly declared their collaboration to establish an advisory group, aiming to tackle the substantial challenges confronting college sports. This initiative comes in response to the NCAA's struggles in overseeing intercollegiate athletics amid transformative changes that jeopardize the traditional amateur model. Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti emphasized the significant investment of both conferences in the NCAA, asserting that their voices are crucial for governance and reform. The advisory group will include university presidents, chancellors, and athletic directors, with the possibility of incorporating athletes and other relevant stakeholders as needed. While specific members are yet to be determined, challenges such as recent court decisions, pending litigation, state law variations, and intricate governance proposals prompted the formation of this partnership. SEC commissioner Greg Sankey acknowledged the cultural and social impacts on student-athletes, institutions, and communities due to the evolving collegiate athletics landscape. Although the group will lack independent authority and serve solely as a consulting body, the announcement signifies the commitment of the two influential conferences to actively shape the future of college sports. The symbolic alliance of the Big Ten and SEC, encompassing 34 of the nation's most powerful brands, is notable. While details regarding the group's charter, timetable, and specific challenges remain unclear, the collaboration adds momentum to the discourse on the future of college sports. Both conferences, expanding their reach and securing lucrative media rights agreements, play a pivotal role in ongoing debates about athlete compensation. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

SEASON 2 EPISODE 82: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump has made a stochastic threat against the President of the United States: “Joe Biden should stop his Election Interfering Thugs before it is too late for him and the rest of the Country,” That is a threat and if you wrote it somewhere in public – depending on your rap sheet and past mental health – Secret Service might stop by for a visit. And Trump's rap sheet includes manifest and growing clinical insanity. Oh and an attempt to violently overthrow the government of the United States. In the same post: “He's got the Justice Department and others suing me… it opens up a very big and dangerous pandora's box” which is yet another stochastic call for somebody to attack the Justice Department or its leaders or Jack Smith or all of the above, to say nothing of what – if he keeps saying it this loudly this often, voters might actually notice – is the hundredth repetition of his promise that he will actually do what he's falsely claiming is being done to him – what he already DID do on a small scale – use the DOJ as a personal tool for revenge and suppression of any opposition. Trump also attacked Judge Engoron's clerk and his wife: “Judge Engoron's Trump Hating wife, together with his very disturbed and angry law clerk, have taken over control of the New York State Witch Hunt Trial aimed at me…” Again, this is the clerk he has doxxed, and now threatened; and added to this is Engoron's wife. Five times in just four minutes yesterday Trump posted screenshots sent to him by the lunatic Laura Loomr of posts a Twitter-X account with various anti-Trump memes, over which Trump wrote “This is the judge's wife saying this” and “Another from Judge Engoron's Wife” and “Yet another from Judge Engoron's wife” and “Judge Engoron's Wife” and finally he ran out and just repeated “Judge Engoron's Wife.”Spoiler alert: it's NOT Judge Engoron's Wife. 22 days ago she told Newsweek quote “I do not have a Twitter account. This is not me. I have not posted any anti-Trump messages.” Even if Mrs. Engoron IS somehow lying, boldly and on-the-record and with no wiggle room of course as we know, what a judge's wife does in her life or on social media is immediate grounds for the judge's impeachment. Right Ginni Thomas? And if he wasn't self-destructing when he endorsed the Anti-semitic Great Replacement theory last week, or if he wasn't self-destructing when he endorsed Pizzagate on Tuesday, he WAS self-destructing at the New York Times Dealbook Summit yesterday, daring advertisers not to advertise, implying no one could blackmail him with mere money. And congrats to interviewer Andrew Ross Sorkin for not getting any of it on him when Musk turned into a human debris field. A lesson, kids: never let them inject the Ozempic into your brain. B-Block (23:40) IN SPORTS: Aaron Rodgers plays a little football and doesn't rip anything. And could the biggest baseball import from Japan make his decision based on what uniform number a team is willing to give him? (29:09) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The cognitive decline of Sean Hannity, Ron DeSantis "literally" standing in front of a freight train, and I'm back on Twitter-X thanks to the firm hand of Lauren Boebert. C-Block (34:30) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Myra - and her unborn puppies - in Devore, Ca. (35:30) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Every year at this time I am reminded that a Major League Baseball team once managed to get me fired from a job I hadn't started at. Which means that since 2000 they have done that, as often as they've won the World Series.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Things Discussed: Petitti has to thread a needle because he's tied to Ohio State/Michigan State Twitter's version of events where having in-game scouting, video, and interpretations of a team's signs from coaches sharing it is fine, but having in-game video of a team's signs from a fan with an iPhone is a player-safety issue. He wants to say sign-stealing is this evil thing but the language he used in the letter very carefully pulls back right before saying it. Unprecedented things: NCAA sharing their investigation with the Big Ten, the Big Ten going after a member institution instead of protecting them from the NCAA, and the Big Ten commissioner allowing the other member schools to railroad him into sabotaging a member institution. Screwed up by going after Harbaugh with Malice. They clearly got Michigan's letter and had the lawyers try to get Harbaugh anyways. The midnight punishment and the maliciousness of Petitti's pursuit has turned Michigan into the sympathetic party. This is what scares a dishonest Buckeye bootlicker like Ari Wasserman the most: the haters are exposed, and people start to question where this "scandal" really comes from. Seth/Brian disagree on whether OSU wants to punish Michigan's players or get The Game canceled. Seth: Ryan Day still has to recruit at IMG. Brian: They hate Michigan that much, and the worst thing for Day is getting the brakes beat off of him again. Leaving the Big Ten? Sam says saber-rattling, Seth says take it seriously because there is no way Michigan can remain a member if Tony Petitti is the commissioner. When this is all over, how do we get a fair hearing? Possible future: show USC that they're in danger from this same thing (they are), see what Notre Dame is doing, maybe go after Texas, and then sad to say if this Ultra-conference gets any legs Ohio State will come. This is what the other Big Ten schools should be concerned about: other than OSU and to a much lesser degree Penn State, they all have sweet deals, and the way they lose it is if a Michigan or Ohio State no longer wants to share revenue with them. Rutgers, MSU, Northwestern, Indiana: if you are relegated to mid-majors in a decade, this is what you did. PSU game: Did you get the message? Michigan beat a Top 10 opponent by yelling "RUN" every down. Michigan had issues with their big OL package but extra gaps nerf Penn State's defensive advantages. They had to cancel their rush package entirely and the 5-star DEs they emphasize and stunts they practice are less valuable when those are happening many gaps away from the one we're attacking. Instead of the play turning on the athleticism of the PSU front seven it turns on whether a 210-pound safety can win a block against a 270-pound AJ Barner. After the show: We talk basketball but I didn't get a recording of it. We are very sorry we couldn't fit it in.

Is today finally the day? And have we been saying that for about a week now? We are of course talking about Michigan's punishment from the Big Ten and commissioner Tony Petitti. Serious sanctions likely will not come until the offseason when the NCAA rules, but what will Petitti do? And will his decision come today? Per ESPN, it certainly will. Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle to discuss that, give predictions on Ohio State's game against visiting Michigan State tomorrow night, provide thoughts on the injury situation for the Buckeyes and more.

Ari Wasserman and David Ubben share their instant reactions to Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti suspending Jim Harbaugh for the remainder of the regular season for Michigan's sign stealing controversy. Was this punishment equal to the "crime", or was this the result of enormous pressure on Petitti?

The Big Ten has suspended Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh for the remainder of the regular season as the league disciplines the program under its sportsmanship policy amid the ongoing NCAA investigation into the school's in-person sign-stealing ring.

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI's Pat Forde pick this weekend's biggest college football games against the spread & provide their thoughts on Michigan's response to the Big Ten as rumors of a suspension for Jim Harbaugh circulate through the sports world.After being notified of a Big Ten investigation, Michigan was given the opportunity to respond with any claims or information that may exonerate them in the Connor Stalions sign-stealing saga. Michigan is attempting to put the pressure on Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti with their aggressive statements. A few central questions remain with the developments: how will a judge handle this case from a legal perspective & did Jim Harbaugh know the extent to which Stalions went to in order to get the signs?In on-the-field news, NC State quarterback MJ Morris is opting to redshirt this season after playing four games for the Wolfpack. With Morris at QB, NC State has won 3 out of their last 4 games, but the signal caller is looking to preserve another year of eligibility instead of closing out the season.Meanwhile, Quinn Ewers has been upgraded to day-to-day status as Texas is looking to finish the year strong with upcoming games against TCU, Iowa State & Texas Tech. The Longhorns' win over Alabama will prove to be very useful if they can win out, as they hold all tiebreakers against the Crimson Tide.Before making their picks for Race for the Case, the guys share their most interesting games of the week, which includes a hot Arizona team, some Mountain West action and the always-interesting Miami Hurricanes.To close out the podcast, the guys give their picks against the spread for the #3 ranked Michigan Wolverines at the #10 ranked Penn State Nittany Lions, the #18 ranked Utah Utes visiting the #5 ranked Washington Huskies, the #13 ranked Tennessee Volunteers at the #14 ranked Missouri Tigers, the #9 ranked Ole Miss Rebels taking on the #2 ranked Georgia Bulldogs, the USC Trojans at the #6 ranked Oregon Ducks and as always, Dan, Ross & Pat give their locks of the week.1:00 - Michigan responds to the Big Ten34:37 - NC State quarterback MJ Morris is redshirting41:34 - Quinn Ewers is now day-to-day46:29 - Most interesting games of the weekend54:39 - #3 Michigan @ #10 Penn State57:45 - #18 Utah @ #5 Washington59:34 - #13 Tennessee @ #14 Missouri1:01:09 - #9 Ole Miss @ #2 Georgia1:03:16 - USC @ #6 Oregon1:04:31 - Locks of the weekFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger

Did the Big 10 commissioner mess up the Michigan situation?

The Mad Dog wants to see the Big 10 suspend Michigan Head Coach Jim Harbaugh for the remainder of the regular season  and let him return for the college football playoffs.  He also wants an admission of guilt so we can move on with this.

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI's Pat Forde break down the latest news in the Michigan sign-stealing scandal and what punishments may soon come down the line.As more Big Ten coaches express their displeasure with Michigan's sign-stealing operation, the pressure turns to commissioner Tony Petitti. There are rumblings that he could make a decision before the NCAA does, which hasn't been seen on this scale since the Cam Newton recruiting saga. Aside from the decision itself, plenty of fans and coaches will be upset no matter what the Big Ten and the NCAA decide. The guys dive into scenarios for other Big Ten schools down the line if a scandal like this were to happen again and how Tony Petitti has a chance to change the landscape for cheating punishments for years to come.Sticking with the Wolverines, the most anticipated game of the week is Michigan traveling to face off against Penn State. Both teams are equipped with elite defenses, but the podcast speculates whether the distractions at Michigan could give Penn State a boost at home this Saturday.Georgia is facing off against Ole Miss this weekend in their stretch of tough late-season SEC games. The crew focuses on whether or not Ole Miss has a shot to win, or at least weaken Georgia before the Bulldogs play Tennessee next week.Tennessee vs. Missouri is the second biggest matchup of in the SEC this weekend. While this game doesn't hold many major playoff implications this season, it gives us a perfect example of what a high-stakes play-in game might look like for the expanded playoff next season.To close out the podcast, the People's Court takes on a case between a Florida man, his conspicuous car decorations and the police.1:00 - Tony Petitti vs. Jim Harbaugh30:42 - Michigan vs. Penn State38:47 - Can Ole Miss shock Georgia?46:34 - Tennessee vs. Missouri49:08 - People's Court: Florida Man's car decorationsFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger

Offense vs Purdue Starts at 1:00 EDITOR NOTE: I am also spending a lot of time compressing Brian's voice. The worst night game to have is the crappy night game, especially when USC Washington and Alabama LSU are on! It says something that JJ hit 60% of his passes and threw for over 300 yards and everyone's like "what's wrong with JJ?" When do you want to save a play and when do you want to put it on tape? Donovan Edwards has not been utilized properly, are they saving a package for him against Penn State? Starting tackles gave up some sacks but otherwise played pretty well (Purdue has a pair of NFL defensive ends). Is the way to beat JJ by playing a lot of zone defense?   2. Defense vs Purdue Starts at 43:20 Michigan wasn't getting sacks against Hudson Card but they were pressuring him on every play. It'll be curious to see who actually rotates against Penn State. Starting to feel like we're getting the 2021 version of Rod Moore, which is encouraging. Junior Colson took a step in the right direction, Josh Wallace also played well. All of the ends are a higher level than we predicted at the beginning of the year. 3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 1:02:36 Takes hotter than Santa Ono's letter to Tony Petitti. Why is Purdue football every five years just two NFL defensive ends and nothing else? The 4th and one felt like a good decision, the formation wasn't. Michigan hasn't kicked a field goal in forever so it was good to see it still works. Starters played well into the 4th quarter. 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:25:22 Penn State - 51 Maryland - 15 Maryland turns the ball over four times and rushes for -49 yards. Yup, we're at November Maryland, they are no longer a trap game. When Drew Allar can set his feet and have time to throw he looks like the five star he's supposed to be, but when you pressure him he's shaky. They probably won't be able to run against Michigan but they still have one of the best defenses in college football. Ohio State - 35 Rutgers - 16 Rutgers is leading 9-7 at halftime but throws a pick-six while driving in the 3rd quarter. Rutgers outgains Ohio State 361-328. We experienced for a moment what it was like being a Rutgers fan and it wasn't fun. Iowa - 10 Northwestern - 7 Neither team gets more than 200 yards and Iowa is alone in first place in the West. He can't keep getting away with it. Indiana - 20 Wisconsin - 14 How did Indiana win this? Uhh, one good pass play? Wisconsin outgain Indiana 344-261. Indiana took the lead and just waited for the time to run out before Wisconsin came back. Michigan State - 20 Nebraska - 17 Nebraska gets back to their old self, turning the ball over three times. Illinois - 27 Minnesota - 26 Illinois wins on an improbable last minute drive with their backup QB. A disappointing game for anyone who didn't want to see Iowa in the Big Ten Championship Game.

The guys give their thoughts on what Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti should do, as well as what he is allowed to do in this situation. The rest of the Big Ten wants the hammer dropped on Michigan, but the program happens to be the conference's best chance at a National Championship this year.Alabama hosted LSU this Saturday and appeared to have adopted a new offensive scheme. Quarterback Jalen Milroe had a great game and helped lay the foundation for a Georgia vs. Alabama SEC championship matchup in a few weeks. The guys also reflect on the impact of this season on LSU and their fanbase as we are reaching the end of Brian Kelly's second season with the program.The Pac-12's biggest matchup of the week did not disappoint as Washington and USC dueled until the very end, resulting in a Washington victory and the dismissal of USC defensive coordinator Alex Grinch on Sunday. USC star quarterback Caleb Williams was seen emotional after the game with his family, which sparks a very interesting point from Dan as to why he didn't sit out the season.The final Bedlam matchup was a good one as Oklahoma State came out victorious over Oklahoma. The guys see this as a fitting end to the rivalry, with Oklahoma leaving the Big 12 for the SEC next season. This result also leaves Texas as the only remaining Big 12 team to have a shot at CFP contention this season.Notre Dame received their third loss of the season to Clemson and a very fired up Dabo Swinney. The Fighting Irish continue to produce unpredictable games and seasons under Marcus Freeman.To close out the podcast, the guys give out their Small Sample Heisman awards & as always, Say Something Nice.1:00 - Connor Stalions fired at Michigan27:10 - Alabama takes down LSU36:14 - Alex Grinch fired by USC after Washington loss43:48 - Oklahoma State takes the last Bedlam game vs. Oklahoma47:30 - Notre Dame gets their third loss after losing to Clemson50:00 - An Iowa professor left an interesting obituary53:20 - Small Sample Heisman57:31 - Say Something NiceFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI's Pat Forde reflect on the life and career of legendary men's college basketball coach Bob Knight on today's episode.The news of Bob Knight's passing broke on Wednesday night, leaving the sports world crushed at the loss of a legendary figure.

The guys also recall Knight's volatility and unique character traits that made him truly one-of-one in the purest definition of the phrase.Central Michigan's lack of definitive comment regarding this week's reporting that a figure resembling Conor Stalions was spotted on their sideline has led the crew to decide that Stalions was indeed stealing signs from Michigan State early in the year. The investigation continues for Michigan and Stalions, but the more that Dan, Pat & Ross learn about it, the more they have to conclude that no college coach would ever be on board with Stalions' brash espionage tactics.The Big Ten held a coaches phone conference with commissioner Tony Petitti this week. Jim Harbaugh provided his statement, then left the call for other coaches to express their displeasure with the conference in reference to the sign-stealing scandal. The guys work through the most effective ways that the Big Ten can get through this sign-stealing investigation and keep their other member schools happyThis weekend will be the last SEC on CBS doubleheader, so Ross details the inner workings as to why the two powerhouses brands will be making a split after this season.To close out the podcast, the guys give their picks against the spread for the #23 ranked Kansas State Wildcats at the #7 ranked Texas Longhorns, the #12 ranked Missouri Tigers visiting the #2 ranked Georgia Bulldogs, the #9 ranked Oklahoma Sooners taking on the #22 ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys, the #5 ranked Washington Huskies at the #20 ranked USC Trojans, the #14 ranked LSU Tigers at the #8 ranked Alabama Crimson Tide and as always, Dan, Ross & Pat give their locks of the week.1:00 - Legendary coach Bob Knight passed away25:11 - Connor Stalions on the Central Michigan sideline36:31 - Big Ten coaches angry in conference call with Tony Petitti48:27 - Why SEC and CBS split53:12 - Race for the Case: #23 Kansas State @ #7 Texas57:05 - #12 Mizzou @ #2 Georgia59:37 - #9 Oklahoma @ #22 Oklahoma State1:02:47 - #5 Washington @ #20 USC1:05:37 - #14 LSU @ #8 Alabama1:07:34 - Locks of the weekFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger

We are going to do a series of position breakdowns on the 5ish and today we begin with a deep dive on Ohio State's 2023 offensive line. Who will be the starters most likely? Who will be the top backups in order? What are expectations for Justin Frye's group? Also, it turns out Kevin Warren might have been even more incompetent than we thought, which frankly we did not believe was possible. The much-hyped Big Ten TV contracts? Well, as it turns out, they haven't even been finalized yet and schools within the conference are going to get at least $5 million less than they each anticipated. New Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti is scrambling to clean up the mess that Warren left behind. All of that and more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish as Dave Biddle flies solo.
