Offense vs UTEP Starts at 0:54 Well eventually that's what it should've looked like. UTEP had a lot of their yards on one drive but negative yards in the second half. If the events of this game had happened in a different order, it would've felt better (Michigan's win % on ESPN only got down to 92.7%). Beck made some nice technical decisions, the offense adjusted a lot to what the defense was giving them. From experience, Brian thinks Sprague has Norovirus. This would've been a nice game to give Babalola a chance. Michigan simplified things to reduce the frippery in the run game. UTEP tried to be Oklahoma on defense and it worked for about a drive and a half. Michigan saw a stacked box and started throwing it. Travis Johnson saw his first real play time and looked nice. Even when Bryce's throws aren't perfect his receivers are night and day from last year so let them go and make a play. Is some of the blocking a result of Playbook-Itus? Andrew Marsh wouldn't have been practicing sweeps much last year. Is stretch also an under-practiced play? The Marshall-cat worked all three times. How much of Hiter's fumble was his fault? It was helmet to ball but his posture was high. Bryson Kuzdzal came in after the fumble because Jordan Marshall was dinged up and on a pitch count. There was an Owens cat! Beigel does move people but doesn't combo. They were eventually so good at stretch last year and it feels a little bit like they threw away its development. Their best lineman isn't utilized in power. It seemed pretty clear that they were intentionally trying to give Andrew Marsh the ball, he's not been targeted much in the first two games. Catch and run slants could be a dangerous tool and help out the rest of the run game. We're seeing the extent of the wide receiver depth chart and getting more guys involved. Poor Ffrench. Tommy Carr probably would've started on either Sherrone Moore team. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Defense vs UTEP Starts at 56:43 Defensively that was what you would've wanted to see. There were a couple big plays and other than that UTEP didn't do anything. Michigan's defensive line got held up a bit in the first two drives and then after that the defensive line had free paths to the quarterback. They run into Tariq Boney twice and he blows up the play. Is he more like Josiah Stewart than Josh Uche? Cam Brandt is a defensive tackle now?? Suddenly the defensive ends are like seven deep? Lea'ea touchdown because he back-tracked on a screen! We will still be complaining about Wink Martindale 20 years from now. The Mouton comp of Troy Bowles is prevalent. The linebackers had a slow day since the defensive line was having their way. Zeke Berry was injured so Shamari Earls started, he's almost there. You can see why Snowden was a star. Was the second UTEP touchdown supposed to be Bracy's guy to cover? Give Tommy Carr a number that looks like Cam Brown's so you can do a fake punt. 3. Hot Takes, Special Teams, and Game Theory Starts at 1:20:15 Takes hotter than Michigan's offense in the second half for the first time all year. 49 yard field goal feels good, we thought Butkowski would max out at 45 yards. That was a silly opening kickoff where Kuzdzal had to field it. Andrew Marsh fielded a punt over his shoulder with a gunner that could've gone poorly. UTEP, you can kick a field goal or onside it but don't do both! Michigan had nice time management in the first half. Only four penalties! Most of these holds wouldn't be called if Aidan Hutchinson was on the field. It's fun that the kickoff team pumps up the crowd now. What was up with the roughing the passer penalty? UTEP went through all of their timeouts faster than we've ever seen. Let's talk about Ole Miss going for two against LSU since it's interesting. 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:54:59 Lightning Round: Minnesota 41, Akron 7 Penn State 55, Buffalo 13 Wisconsin 54, EMU 10 Ohio State 59, Kent State 3 Illinois 48, Southern Illinois 10 Iowa 55, Northern Iowa 0 Washington 48, Eastern Washington 16 Indiana 38, Western Kentucky 0 Nebraska 34, North Dakota 7 Oregon 84, Portland State 0 USC 43, Rutgers 35 This was... not a fluke?? Rutgers was moving the ball all game. USC won this because of a pick six at the goal line. This might be the most stunning indictment of Lincoln Riley's ability to build a defense. We're comparing USC to Boston College and UMass?? This seems to say a lot more about USC than it does about Rutgers. Northwestern 41, Colorado 7 This was not listed in the lightning round because the yardage here was much closer than the score. Colorado was -3 in turnover margin. If Aidan Chiles can throw the ball then that changes things. This was Northwestern's last game at the beach stadium! Michigan State 10, Notre Dame 27 Closer to what we expected from Michigan State this year. MSU had 167 total yards and 53 of them came off of one pass play. They're running the right plays, they just don't have the athletes to run them. UCLA 52, Purdue 38 Nico Iamaleava is a gazelle of a human. Purdue's defense looks abominable. Semaj Morgan had four catches for 72 yards and two touchdowns. This game had 1133 total yards of offense. UCLA's defense looks as shaky as USC's. Maryland 26, Virginia Tech 35 Maryland has 2.8 YPC with their running backs. They can't get away from James Franklin. Sorry Maryland, this is just who you are.

Send us Fan MailHi everybody and welcome to Attendance Bias. I am your host Brian Weinstein. Before we get started with today's episode, I wanted to remind you that you can support Attendance Bias by rating and reviewing the show wherever you get your podcasts, you can follow Attendance Bias on social media, and you can visit www.buymeacoffee.com/attendancebias and donate anything you can. Now, onto the show:Welcome to Richmond, Virginia, everybody! Even though today's venue, The Allianz Amphitheater is brand new by Phish standards–just over a year old at the time of this recording–Richmond is a familiar friend to the Phish world. Of all four stops on this fall tour: Atlantic City, Richmond, Jacksonville, and Huntsville, Richmond has, by far, the richest Phish history. However, that history stopped in the early 90s, as the band hasn't played Richmond proper in 32 years! Time to welcome them back.Today's guest, Scott Wise, is the perfect tour guide to welcome us to Richmond. Being a long-time resident of the city, and a Phish fan since the early 90s, he is able to take us through places to see, things to do, long-gone Phish venues of the past in Richmond, and more. In addition, Scott is the co-host of the podcast “Eat It, Virginia” where he and Robey Martin explore and find different culinary treats throughout the Old Dominion. As a result, when I asked him about places to eat and drink around Richmond for the Phish shows, I needed to get a pen and paper out, because it seems like there's a place for every taste.So if you're a fan of early Phish history, if you're going to the shows at the Allianz Amphitheater, or if you just want to go on a tour of an up-and-coming city in the south, enjoy this episode where Scott Wise and I preview Phish's shows on October 6 and 7, 2026.Scott's Interview with Phish's ChefFeature About Phish Members Spotted in RichmondSupport the show

Offense vs Oklahoma Starts at 0:54 That... went better than we expected. Seth was right about Oregon's offensive line. Michigan won this game by listening to the MGoPodcast! Or at least they looked at the film and did the obvious thing to do. Offensively it looks like they tightened it up and simplified things, they looked at things Bryce was good at a year ago and emphasized his legs. It looks like Bryce went through some progressions and then decided to scramble a couple times. There were some plays that could've gone better but it wasn't on Bryce's decision making, Oklahoma was just covering the field well. Savion Hiter screwed up a zone read twice, freshman mistake (that had us and Bryce rattled). If you want to win a game against Oklahoma you need to run Underwood 18 times a game and that's what they did - Whittingham wished he ran more. Bryce seems more comfortable rolling out - that lob to Hiter on the sidelines was right out of his high school film. Fumbles need to be cleaned up, QBs aren't active in practice so they're probably not practicing ball security as much. Don't pitch the ball over a defender's head. They won by game-managing and being content with 17 points. Jason Beck had a fantastic gameplan with what he had against a hyper-aggressive defense. The Marshall-Cat seems redundant when you have Bryce's legs. Savion Hiter has it and is making pre-season All-SEC players look silly. They're finding ways to get Marsh the ball. JJ Buchanan is... really good. They really only used the starting wide receivers, Goodwin, Travis Johnson, and Ffrench did not contribute. Pass protection was generally very good, they were also going against one of the best run defenses in America. Michigan doesn't quite have the mental processing speed yet but all things considered they did pretty well. We go about 47 minutes before complaining about the rhino, which means it went a lot better. 2. Defense vs Oklahoma Starts at 54:15 Can't ask for much more than only giving up 10 points. That said, it was apparent that Oklahoma's o-line was very banged up, they had two guys rushing back from knee sprains. Michigan ran a 3-3-5 because they only needed to run their two good defensive tackles, this probably won't translate well against better offensive lines. Dom Nichols has earned his star. Jay Hill's gameplan was a weird hybrid of Don Brown and Jesse Minter - we're a man-to-man team but we're also confusing the quarterback? Bracy punching the ball out was reminiscent of his play at Memphis. Nate Marshall is Josh Uche. He was a great pass rusher but got baited on some run plays. Cam Brandt only had six snaps, they're giving the snaps to guys who make plays (this didn't happen last year). Palepale didn't play but Lea'ea did. Overall the coverages were excellent and even zone (which they don't usually do) was good enough. NOB made a play. There were a lot of hugs with Cole Sullivan after the game, would've been nice to have him at Michigan on this defense. Snowden was excellent, you've got three NFL-ready defensive backs on the field (not including Earls yet). Jyaire Hill - stupid penalty, don't do it again. Pretty interception. Defensive tackles were nice, Pierce was the best to stand up to double teams. Defensive lines will be graded on a curve. 3. Hot Takes, Special Teams, and Game Theory Starts at 1:30:34 Takes hotter than Brian predicting the Oklahoma gameplan. We saw a field goal! What was the biggest punting EPA above expected? Punting might become a dangerous weapon on this team. Should the caught punt have been a touch back? It's when you have possession but that feels wrong. They go for it on 4th and 1, Bryce is a big guy for sneaks. Are the penalties partially because there's a new coaching staff with new schemes they're thinking through and also some "Sherrone"-ness leftover? Don't rush the punter on 4th and 5 or less. Remember, if you touch the ball you can assault the punter. Should that helmet coming off been a penalty? Certain penalties should go away over the course of the year, it's a very young offense learning new things. This crew was an SEC crew that was a bit more ticky-tacky about holds. The Oklahoma fans were great and everyone we've talked to said they had a great time. Home and home games like this are so fun and are what college football is all about. Everyone is going to remember this game, Michigan beat Oklahoma. Oklahoma fans will probably always remember the game last year. 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 2:04:31 Lightning Round: Indiana 55, Howard 0 Wisconsin 36, Western Illinois 9 Nebraska 56, BGSU 7 Michigan State 35, Eastern Michigan 7 Maryland 38, UConn 14 UCLA 28, SDSU 10 Minnesota 13, Mississippi State 38 Rutgers 21, Boston College 28 Purdue 35, Wake Forest 38 Oregon 31, Oklahoma State 39 The score was close but Oklahoma State dominated. Seth was right about Oregon's offensive line being a problem. Oklahoma State snaps a 21 game FBS losing streak (they still have an 18 game Big 12 losing streak). Oklahoma State outgained Oregon 554 to 281. Ohio State 23, Texas 24 Texas goes into the 4th quarter down 23-3 and rallies back. There's a hilariously missed 45 yard field goal. The Ohio State offense was Jeremiah Smith and that was about it. 16 of Julian Sayin's 32 passes went to Jeremiah Smith. This is Ohio State's third straight loss to a P4 team, in which they've scored 10, 10, and 23 points. Iowa 16, Iowa State 13 The most El Assico score possible. Iowa had a coherent looking offense at times, that's scary! Iowa has a wide receiver, Tony Diaz, who already has 15 catches on the year. The Hawkeyes did only rush for 3.2 yards per carry. Illinois 27, Duke 31 This was close all game and was the opposite of El Assico until the 4th quarter. Katin Houser looks better at Illinois than he ever did at Michigan State, Collin Dixon is a dangerous wide receiver (11 catches for 166 yards, 3 TDs). Washington 16, Utah State 14 This is alarm bells going off for Washington. The second week in a row that Washington QB Demon Williams is the lead rusher, their one-two punch is gone. No Denzel Boston? They just can't seem to score in the redzone. Washington was +3 in field goal margin and only won by two. Penn State 27, Temple 9 Penn State controlled this game but it was very un-inspiring. Temple had a 91 yard drive that ended in a field goal, Penn State was giving up 50 yard drives. USC 49, Louisiana 30 USC still looks like USC under Lincoln Riley. Louisiana's QB is named Lunch Winfield.

With the explosive growth in the fan following for 3rd generation Mustangs over recent years, it's no surprise mega Fox Body Mustang shows would become must-see events. So, in the wake of the annual success of Foxtoberfest (check out our Podcast from the 2024 gathering at the Charlotte Motor Speedway), a group of Fox enthusiasts from the Detroit area decided to put together a Motor City version of a FoxFest and hold the show at the recently decommissioned Ford World Headquarters. It was patterned after the popular Mustang Memories shows hosted by the Mustang Owner's Club of SouthEastern Michigan on the back lot of Ford's famed “Glass House” HQ.But after 3 years there, the Motor City FoxFest was forced to find a new venue with the closure of that property due to the Ford World Headquarters move to an ultra-modern massive new facility on the automaker's Dearborn engineering campus. While the new Ford HQ does not have a wide-open paved area to host a big car show, the Ford Experience Center (internally dubbed the FXC) located just across the street does. So event organizers negotiated with Ford to host its 4th annual Motor City FoxFest on the three large parking lot next to the FXC and adjacent to the Henry Ford Museum's expansive Greenfield Village grounds and parking area.John and Mike visited this year's FoxFest to check out the new venue and all the great Fox Body rides and SN95 Mustangs that were on display across the three show areas. Enjoy this episode's visual tour as the boys talk you through the great photography by Ford Marketing retiree Bill Cook, a longtime contributor to John's FordPerformance.com “Enthusiasts” section.

Before we get started with today's episode, I wanted to remind you that you can support Attendance Bias by rating and reviewing the show wherever you get your podcasts, you can follow Attendance Bias on social media, and you can visit www.buymeacoffee.com/attendancebias and donate anything you can. Now, onto the show:It's only been a short while, but we are back previewing venues here on Attendance Bias. After Phish's fantastic and innovative summer tour, it felt like we had maybe 5 minutes to breathe and collect ourselves before they announced the 2026 fall tour. And we are all using the word “tour” loosely. The whole tour is 8 shows in 4 venues in 10 days, all in October. So once the tour was announced, I went straight to work reaching out to find fans who would be excited to talk about each venue that will host the band.First up is a venue that made its bones as a legendary place to see Phish fairly recently: Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Situated right on the boardwalk, the art deco venue has hosted Phish twice before, both for Halloween runs. But today's episode covers more than that. Today's guest, Adam Pritchard, is an old school fan who has seen every show Phish has played in Atlantic City and doesn't live very far away. Together, we review the long history of the renovated venue, offer our opinions of almost every show played there, and take a couple of conversational detours to the other shows Phish has played in Atlantic City in 2012, 2021, and 2022. But I don't want to spoil it. Whether or not you're going to AC this October, enjoy today's conversation about Phish's history at Boardwalk Hall and Atlantic City as we get ready to see them again on October 2, 3, and 4, 2026.Support the show

Clocks and Vibes Starts at 0:54 Brian left early. The clock said zero so he left the building. Spiritually the result of this game doesn't matter, they lost the game spiritually. After Zapruder Film Analysis, either NBC showed the wrong clock or the clock in the stadium is bad. The seconds weren't the same length?? Does college football need tenths of seconds? Was this the most disappointing game you've seen as a Michigan fan? The plays don't look coherent, it doesn't look like players are running the same thing. The run game was disappointing and Bryce Underwood does not look like he's improved from a year ago. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Offense vs Western Michigan Starts at 19:30 Bad. Bad in ways that make you scared about where the program is. Bryce is still zeroing in on one receiver without seeing the field. Manuel Beigel is not one of the best eight offensive linemen, why is he on the field as the rhino? He can't block. Half the line ran stretch and the other half didn't. They didn't try to just run power down their throat. It felt like they were trying to run frippery without establishing the basic stuff first. The coaches are from Utah and BYU, programs that have been established for 20 years. Are the coaches running plays like Michigan has the stability and continuity of Utah and BYU? We were hearing that Bryce's footwork was improving, is he just not learning/processing fast enough? He's got the talent but if he can't read a defense then it doesn't matter. Age-wise, Bryce is still a freshman. Why did Bryson Kuzdzal start the second half, the other two RBs barely had any plays. JJ Buchanan is pretty good! Jalen Hoffman looked good, put him out there instead of a rhino. Evan Link came a long distance last year but was disappointing this week. 3. Hot Takes, Defense, and More Vibes Starts at 54:57 Takes hotter than the internet at about 10:30pm Saturday night. Can't be too mad at the defense because functionally they only really gave up six points. You can see things happening on the defense, the young linebackers have talent but they're making mistakes. On the ground game there's a huge difference between the starters and everybody else. They don't think they have a 3rd defensive tackle. Pierce and Etta looked pretty good. Too much Brandt. Salesi Moa didn't look terrible out there, he's an... interesting player. Defense tried to be heroes too many times. Punting was really good, Zeke Berry was an excellent gunner. Let's talk 4th downs and clock management. Nine penalties is concerning. The uniforms have got to go. The stadium volume was really low, the music wasn't deafening but you also couldn't hear the refs. The stadium experience felt "very generic". They replaced the Rose Bowl logo with a Google Gemini ad. They had to put the corporate logos on the banner that had the national championship logos on it. It feels like every year that you go to the stadium the experience gets worse. This is important to us and not to the people who are selling it. There's nothing about it now that wouldn't be materialistically different than if Dave Brandon was currently the athletic director. It looks like Michigan didn't let Western bring their band. Fans rushing the field might've been the most organic thing to happen during the game but players wanted nothing to do with it. 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:46:06 Lightning round: Indiana 52, North Texas 16 Nebraska 49, Ohio 21 Ohio State 56, Ball State 3 Penn State 45, Marshall 0 Iowa 40, Northern Illinois 0 Maryland 62, Ham 0 USC 39, Fresno State 0 Minnesota 59, Eastern Illinois 7 Northwestern 34, South Dakota State 18 Illinois 42, UAB 23 Purdue 44, Indiana State 19 Washington 24, Washington State 10 Sadly this is probably how the Apple Cup will go from now on. Washington really struggled to move the ball but Wazzu has no offense. Notre Dame 41, Wisconsin 13 Wisconsin's uniforms looked like Rutgers. This was not the blowout that the score suggests. Neither team could really run the ball. Wisconsin looks like a team that could make a bowl game again. Oregon 34, Boise State 27 Oregon almost doubles Boise State in yardage. Remember Seth's hot take about the Oregon offensive line? Dan Lanning is not building strong up front. UCLA 42, Cal 24 Could UCLA maybe be 7-3 when they come into Ann Arbor? They rushed for over 8 YPC. Michigan State 30, Toledo 20 This game was funnier Saturday morning. Toledo had some explosive plays. Doesn't move the needle on Michigan State much. UMass 37, Rutgers 21 UMass rushing rutger'd Rutgers.

The BroGrove aftermath is here. Raven and TopLobsta are joined by Matt Hepner of Straight Bible and Zack of The Berean Files to break down what really happened during Brohemian Grove—from the VIP Bible study and creator meetups to Owen Benjamin, Dr. Heather Lynn, the conspiracy roundtables, venue drama, and the community that showed up to make the event happen.The conversation starts with the trajectory of Nephilim Death Squad and the accusation that success has pulled the show away from God. Raven explains why BroGrove was intentionally designed to glorify the Lord and why the VIP experience at The Standard Coffee Shop became such an important part of the weekend. The guys also recount the chaotic ending of the main event, including problems with the venue, unusable kitchens and bathrooms, a last-minute demand to leave, and the confrontation that abruptly ended the final stage performance.They revisit one of the strangest moments of BroGrove: Owen Benjamin and Dr. Heather Lynn discussing Charlie Kirk, ritual sacrifice, cannibalism, and historical precedent while an uncomfortable police officer stood on security detail. Then comes the bizarre realization that the event itself was taking place on the Charlie Kirk Memorial Highway.The episode also goes deeper than comedy and conspiracy. Raven reflects on moderating the Austin Picard roundtable and the danger of staring into darkness without remaining grounded in God. The discussion explores spiritual warfare, conspiracy research, flat Earth, institutional distrust, Christian discernment, and the need to pursue truth without allowing darkness to become the center of your worldview.Along the way, the crew shares behind-the-scenes stories involving Ed Mabry, John Lenhart, JT Follows JC, Demon Erasers, Hidden in Plain Sight, Paranoid American, the VIP Bible study, Raven's son roaming BroGrove, listener interactions, creator friendships, and plans for the next event.What was your favorite BroGrove moment?

Prosecutors pushed back against Bryan Kohberger's scientific report supporting a change of venue by arguing that the defense had overstated what its survey data actually proved about potential juror bias in Latah County. The defense had relied on polling and expert analysis to argue that pretrial publicity had poisoned the local jury pool and made it impossible for Kohberger to receive a fair trial in Moscow. The State countered that widespread familiarity with the case was not the same thing as fixed prejudice and emphasized that jurors could know about the murders without having already decided Kohberger was guilty. Prosecutors also challenged the methodology and interpretation behind the defense study, arguing that some of the questions were leading, that attitudes measured in a survey did not necessarily predict how prospective jurors would behave under oath, and that voir dire remained the proper mechanism for identifying and removing biased jurors.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Caroline and Kyler open up about the challenges, unexpected costs, and wins they've experienced along the way, including the true costs and surprises couples face when booking a venue, how they balance planning, rentals, and venue ownership while raising a growing family, and the lessons they've learned from buying an established business versus building one from the ground up. They also discuss the importance of avoiding the comparison trap, staying focused on your own goals, and finding your unique lane in an increasingly competitive wedding and events market.About Our Guest: Caroline and Kyler Parker are wedding and event industry entrepreneurs based in Goldsboro, North Carolina.

Bryan Kohberger's defense pushed to move his trial out of Moscow, Idaho, arguing that the extraordinary publicity surrounding the murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin had made it impossible for him to receive a fair trial in Latah County. His attorneys pointed to the intensity of local news coverage, the small size of the community, the emotional impact of the killings on Moscow and the University of Idaho, and survey data showing that many prospective jurors had already formed strong opinions about Kohberger's guilt. The defense argued that simply questioning jurors during voir dire would not be enough to overcome the level of prejudice they believed existed locally, and they specifically identified Ada County, home to Boise and a much larger jury pool, as a more suitable location for the case.Prosecutors resisted the effort, arguing that extensive publicity did not automatically mean an impartial jury could not be selected in Latah County and that moving the trial would create significant logistical and financial complications. Kohberger's lawyers countered that the issue was not convenience but whether the constitutional right to a fair and impartial jury could realistically be protected in a community so closely connected to the crime. The fight ultimately became one of the most consequential pretrial battles in the case, with the defense relying heavily on expert analysis, public-opinion surveys and the sheer saturation of coverage surrounding the murders. The court eventually agreed that the trial should be moved, and Ada County became the new venue, shifting one of the most closely watched murder prosecutions in the country away from the community where the killings had occurred.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
The order granting Bryan Kohberger's motion for a change of venue concluded that the extraordinary level of publicity surrounding the University of Idaho murders, combined with the relatively small population of Latah County and the intense local connection to the case, created too great a risk that an impartial jury could not realistically be seated in Moscow. Judge John Judge emphasized that the issue was not simply whether residents had heard about the case, but the degree to which the murders had saturated the community and affected people personally through the university, local businesses, law enforcement, friends and family. The court also considered defense polling and expert testimony showing that potential jurors in Latah County were significantly more likely to have formed strong opinions about Kohberger's guilt and, in some cases, about whether he should receive the death penalty. Although prosecutors argued that careful jury selection could address those concerns, the judge ultimately determined that voir dire alone was not enough to eliminate the risk of prejudice.The court therefore ordered the trial moved out of Latah County, finding that a larger population center would provide a substantially broader jury pool and reduce the influence of the intense local atmosphere surrounding the killings. The Idaho Supreme Court subsequently assigned the case to Ada County and District Judge Steven Hippler, effectively transferring the prosecution from Moscow to Boise. The ruling was a major victory for Kohberger's defense, which had argued for months that Ada County offered the best chance of assembling jurors who were less personally connected to the case and less saturated by local coverage. The order did not suggest that every potential Latah County juror was biased; rather, it concluded that the combination of community impact, pretrial publicity, the size of the jury pool and the stakes of a capital murder prosecution made relocation necessary to better protect Kohberger's constitutional right to a fair trial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Michigan's Nonconference and Big Ten Teams 18-15 Starts at 0:54 We welcome in Alex Drain to go over Michigan's nonconference games and the rest of the Big Ten. Western Michigan Pretty good for a MAC team, they won the MAC last year. Last year they were an offensively driven team, but they've lost their defensive coordinator to the LA Chargers. They have big offensive linemen (including Ben Roebuck). Michigan's questions at defensive tackle and linebacker will get an early test. UTEP It's bad. Like... really bad. They're starting over with FCS guys. Oklahoma They get John Mateer back (which can be good or bad at any given moment). His stats in the second half of last year weren't great, how much of that was because of injury? He's an athlete when he has to run the ball. They bring back All-SEC WR Isaiah Sategna. Their run game overall was really bad, it brought down their overall offensive SP+ to 51st. Current SP+ projections are 27th. Cole Sullivan might not even start. The starting line is Michigan -2.5 so consider it a toss-up. 18 - Purdue 7-29 in the last three years since losing Jeff Brohm, and there's not much optimism going into this year either. Their schedule might be a little easier at least. This is year two of a coach starting over for Baryy Odom. Can you name the Michigan player who is a projected starter for Purdue? 17 - Michigan State Pat Fitzgerald is... a weird hire. They bring back QB Alessio Milivojevic for some continuity, also PFF really likes UConn RB Cam Edwards. The offensive line looks okay-ish. However, Fred Moore is a projected starter. Do they get four wins? 16 - Rutgers Nobody cares about them except for Bryan Mac. Last year they had their best offense since 2007 but their defense was 131st in success rate. They have KJ Duff who has a claim for the 2nd best wide receiver in the Big Ten. The offense is projected at 37th in SP+, the defense at 90th. 15 - Maryland Someone always has to die in the Maryland preview. They're #2 in returning production in SP+. Give Locksley some credit for returning a lot of young and talented players. A nonconference game against James Franklin's Virginia Tech could be exciting. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Big Ten Teams 14-8 Starts at 38:57 14 - Northwestern They have Chip Kelly and a new stadium (we all liked Ryan Field, though). They start with South Dakota State and then get a week two bye, oddly enough. Can they fix Aidan Chiles? They have some returning wide receivers that are decent. 13 - Wisconsin The shell of Wisconsin, the week they though Luke Fickell would get fired he got an extension. They bring in QB Colton Joseph, the Sun Belt player of the year. Old Wisconsin would never have to go into the portal for a running back. By extending Fickell they gave him a bigger NIL budget which he used to get seven defensive starters. 12 - UCLA They have a new coach. The weird Deshaun Foster era ended before it started. Bob Chesney comes in from James Madison. Nico Iamaleava comes back (for better or worse). James Madison was in the playoffs last year, you might recall. There is a lot of reason to be optimistic about this hire. Semaj Morgan is there! 11 - Nebraska They did not get year-three Matt Rhule, there was no lift-off and Raiola left. They picked up QB Anthony Colandrea from Virginia. They need a new RB. They're on their 4th defensive coordinator in five years, despite a soft schedule they still finished 7-6 last year. It feels like another 7-5 ish season. Is that Matt Rhule or is that just Nebraska now? 10 - Minnesota 68% returning production. They're always around here and they always win a bowl game. QB Drake Lindsey is appearing on 1st round mock drafts?? They're projecting 71st on offense and 24th on defense. They're Minnesota. 9 - Illinois They lose Luke Altmyer to the Detroit Lions and bring in Katin Houser (MSU plays three of their former QBs). Only one starter returns on the offensive line. They bring in Bobby Hauck as defensive coordinator, he left Montana claiming college football wasn't fun anymore and then took this job five days later. He might be their Wink. The defense needs to be fixed up a bit. 8 - Washington They forcibly detained QB Demond Williams for another year so... I guess we'll see how that goes. Last year he could just toss it up to Denzel Boston but he's out the door. They bring in a RB from Oregon and Christian Moss from Kennesaw State. Four of five starters return on the offensive line which could be solid. They lost some pretty good guys in the secondary, defensive tackle is still worrying since they have FCS and MAC guys to plug in positions. Their schedule is very favorable, they could even sneak into the playoffs (and get demolished). 3. Hot Takes and Secondary Starts at 1:19:11 Takes hotter than the hottest hot take that anyone has ever given the Sklars after one of their shows. 7 - Iowa They're Iowa. They haven't had an SP+ defense worse than 6th since 2018. They got all the way up to 37th last year in offensive SP+ (turns out Brian Ferentz was not good at offensive coordination). There are some all-Big Ten guys on the offensive line. Do they have any receivers? Ehhh. They have tight ends. Seth read three preview magazines and they all listed different starting QBs. They lost a lot on defense but they always rebuild. This could be a worrying game for Michigan (if Iowa can score). 6 - Penn State Well, the good news is last year they weren't as bad as they looked. Despite everything that happened they were close to beating Indiana at the end of the season. Matt Campbell comes in with Rocco Becht. A lot of players came over from Iowa State, it's just a matter of how quickly they can fit it all together. Their schedule is a joke, they could even sneak into the playoff or the Big Ten title game. Michigan should still be a favorite. 5 - USC They bring back QB Jayden Maiava, but they replace Makai Lemon. The receiver conveyer belt is moving. Everybody loves Waymond (and they bring back King Miller). Their new defensive coordinator is Gary Patterson (yeah that Gary Patterson). Too bad they don't play Northwestern. They always have a top 10 offense and they just need the defense to be okay. The schedule is brutal, though. Are they just permanently the 15th best team in college football under Lincoln Riley? 4 - Michigan? See: all other content. 3 - Indiana They are the portal team now. Despite losing so many players they recruited the transfer portal like an SEC team. QB Josh Hoover comes in from TCU, he's a good conference starter. They also bring in Nick Marsh (MSU) and Shazz Preston from Tulane. Add that to Charlie Becker and their WR room is stacked (also two time winning national champion Tyler Morris!). They bring in a RB named Turbo! They reload on defense and keep their defensive coordinator. Brian is not a believer and predicts 8-4, Alex thinks they'll be really good, Seth is somewhere in between. 2 - Oregon They get Dante Moore back with the regular trope of skill position players. The offensive line is a big question mark and they replace both of their coordinators with in-house hires. The defense has some good players including one of the best corners in the country. They have a Rimmington-quality center but that's about it for the line (the starting right tackle is a true freshman). Their talent is undeniable, but can they win the big game? 1 - Ohio State Last year they had the Penn State schedule of this year. Sayin's stats looked unbelievable through 12 games, then they couldn't score against Indiana and Miami. That needs to improve. Jeremiah Smith is a generational wide receiver, Chris Henry Jr will be really good but probably not quite Jeremiah Smith's level. The offense will need to make that next step. The defense was what was considered generational on SP+. They lose 9 of 11 starters on defense but they always have a conveyer belt. They had to portal some guys, though. They'll probably take a step back on defense but the offense stepping forward probably cancels that out. The schedule is pretty brutal. 4. Lightning Round Starts at 2:09:30 Predictions!

The scientific work submitted on Bryan Kohberger's behalf in support of moving his trial out of Latah County had focused on whether years of publicity, community involvement and emotional exposure to the murders had created a jury pool that could realistically be considered impartial. Defense experts examined media saturation, public attitudes and psychological research concerning how people formed and retained opinions after repeated exposure to highly emotional information. Social psychologist Dr. Amani El-Alayli explained that greater exposure to publicity about Kohberger was associated with stronger negative attitudes toward him and a greater tendency to view him as guilty. She also emphasized that fear and anger could make initial beliefs unusually resistant to later contradictory information, because people tended to favor information that reinforced opinions they had already formed. In her assessment, the problem in Latah County went beyond whether prospective jurors consciously believed they could be fair; residents had lived much closer to the murders, the University of Idaho and the investigation itself, creating emotional and psychological connections that could influence them even without their recognizing it. She concluded that the safest way to provide Kohberger with an impartial jury was to select people who were both physically and psychologically removed from Latah County.The defense also relied heavily on survey research conducted by trial consultant and social psychologist Dr. Bryan Edelman, who compared prospective jury populations in Latah, Ada, Canyon and Bannock counties. His research found widespread familiarity with the case throughout Idaho, including 98 percent recognition among Latah County respondents, while 67 percent of those familiar with the case there said they believed Kohberger was guilty. Although similar levels of presumed guilt appeared elsewhere, Edelman explained that Latah County's much smaller population dramatically reduced the number of potentially unbiased jurors available, while a county such as Ada offered a vastly larger pool from which an impartial jury could be selected. More importantly, his research found significantly greater levels of fear, stress, anxiety and personal connections to the University of Idaho and local law enforcement among Latah County residents. Dr. Veronica Dahir separately evaluated Edelman's methodology and testified that the surveys had been conducted according to accepted standards and produced sound results. Taken together, the scientific evidence supported the defense's argument that the combination of intense publicity, a small population and the community's personal and emotional connection to the killings created a reasonable likelihood of prejudice in Latah County, an argument Judge John Judge ultimately found persuasive when he granted the change of venue.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Defensive Line Starts at 0:54 The defense is older and more experienced overall compared to the offense, but there are some holes to fill. John Henry Daley transfers from Utah and claims to be ready to go. Aidan Hutchinson as his ceiling might be tough coming off of an injury, but Aidan Hutchinson's 2021 season was also coming off of an injury. There's also a version of JHD where he's not all the way back and is only pretty good. The other starter is either Cam Brandt or Dom Nichols. We're not hearing a lot about Nate Marshall. Benny Patterson, on the other hand, could be a guy that's coming on. A lot of the defensive ends have some experience and are just waiting for their turn. Defensive tackle is not as deep, has some question marks, and doesn't have an established star. Trey Pierce could be solid. Enow Etta has a chance of taking a big step forward. By the end of the season he was the one still standing up against Ohio State. Seth is not high on Jonah Lea'ea. Palepale is probably the 3rd defensive tackle, he's a big dude. Don't give up on defensive tackles. Everyone wants Alister Vallejo to be the high riser, the Mason Graham comparisons are out there. Bobby Kanka flashed in the spring game. Defensive tackle seems like a not great situation overall - there are a couple guys who are serviceable to good and then a lot of questions marks. You always need at least four. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Linebackers Starts at 33:40 The group that is probably the most uncertain, more-so than defensive tackle. They had a first and second team of linebackers that have left after last season. We get to see Cole Sullivan again this year after he transferred to Oklahoma. Nate Staehling is the guy we're most excited about, the transfer from North Dakota State. It would be so lovely if he was a generic Iowa linebacker! He has the ability to take on a lead block. The other portal takes are much less inspiring. Troy Bowles, Chase Taylor, and Nathaniel Owusu-Boateng are the other major contributors. A lot of them look like safeties. Chase Taylor has high shoulder pads! Staehling probably starts with Bowles? After these three it drops off pretty quickly. The recruiting class has three guys that all ranked in flyer territory. Nobody in the program is complaining about defensive tackle, but there are a lot of concerns about linebackers. Keep the top guys mostly healthy and you've got a shot, though. 3. Hot Takes and Secondary Starts at 53:56 Takes hotter than that other week this summer that wasn't even Art Fair but it was like 100 billion degrees and Brian was sitting outside watching his kids play tennis badly. This is a surprisingly veteran group! Not a lot of questions at cornerback, your starters are Jyaire Hill, Zeke Berry, and they import Smith Snowden from Utah. Jyaire Hill has first round upside and this year should be a star. Zeke Berry is at least solid but is he better than that? Could Shamari Earls start over Zeke by the end of the season? The other cornerbacks are Jo'Ziah Edmond, I'Marion Stewart, and Jamarion Vincent. Vincent is a freshman and Stewart is a flip from wide receiver; they're not generating a lot of buzz. Seth is ridiculously high on Smith Snowden at nickel. At safety - is Rod Moore going to be healthy? He says he's healthy but he's on a pitch count. If he's healthy and he's Rod Moore he's one of the best safeties in the country, but he might not be Rod Moore. Chris Bracy transfers in from Memphis and is one of the best transfers in the country. He's a huge asset in stopping the run. Too bad he's not big enough to play linebacker. Mason Curtis got a lot of experience last year and is the 3rd safety, he'll get a lot of opportunities this year. Jordan Young has some upside despite inexplicable snaps last season. 4. Special Teams and Overall Thoughts Starts at 1:28:04 This defense feels like it's going to be pretty decent but there are a lot of questions. If you get the ceiling of a lot of guys on the edge and maybe Staehling then they could be really good. But the middle of the field and the backup defensive tackles are shaky. Will it be fine and are we just spoiled as Michigan fans? There are a lot of guys that will be big pieces on the defense in two or three years and they're on the roster right now. The secondary will be especially exciting if Rod Moore is back, but could weird teams like Iowa take advantage of what Michigan's missing? Also, Michigan has a college defensive coordinator and not Wink Martindale. Michigan imported Trey Butkowski (kicker) and Cam Brown (Aussie punter). Pat Narduzzi was really mad that he lost his kicker so he must be really good. He's not Moody or Zvada but he makes a lot of kicks. The 25 yard line is probably field goal range now, rather than the 35, Justin Turner is your likely comparison. Cam Brown's an odd one. He's a Hudson Hollenbeck comparison but kicks it a little further. Michigan's long snapper, Gavin Magorien, is the only Michigan player on the Freaks List this year. Who do you want returning kickoffs, Moa? And Andrew Marsh on punts?

We win national championships and commit crimes, we are now an SEC program. Michigan has a good dude in Kyle Whittingham now, though! Everyone deserves a freshly showered Brian Cook. What's your excitement level going into this season? It's nice that there are adults in charge now. Some of the things that felt 'off' last season make more sense. There aren't many players on offense this year who you wouldn't project to come back next year, it's a big building year. We're in 2015 mode right now. They actually imported an entire wide receiver room. It feels like Bryce lost a year of development but at least he goes into this year knowing what to expect. The strength and conditioning should be greatly improved, it's telling when coaches leave somewhere and end up at a worse program. 2. Quarterback and Running Back Starts at 25:15 It felt like last year was a lost cause. Pass protection wasn't good enough because the line was super young, the wide receivers were... not sufficient enough. Tyler Huntley in his second year at Utah ran probably three times as much as Bryce, he's still in the NFL with the Ravens. The potential is still there but it feels like he's still a freshman. They ran Bryce like you would run John Navarre, thinking nobody will expect this! This year it will be a team that runs the quarterback. This is the most talent Kyle Whittingham's staff has ever had, they come from a college background and should be excited to execute with it. Bryce struggled passing last year but he was thrown into a bad situation with his receivers. Do you think Bryce will have fewer pass attempts this season? Physically Bryce is everything you could ask for, he just needs to get there mentally. He hasn't been golfing this offseason. Progress is not linear, he might not look great early but hope for him to get slowly better over the course of the season and have a watershed moment by mid-season. Some QBs you can tell just aren't happening in the spring game, but Tommy Carr was happening. Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi is here but did not enroll for spring, he's a multi-year starter at Colorado State but lost his job. Chase Herbstreit and Brady Smigiel... don't exist right now. Running back is similar to last year where the one-two punch is among the best in the country and Bryson Kuzdzal is the third guy. This is Jordan Marshall's year and just by the way he talks there's no way he's not going to try and be the best running back in the country. Savion Hiter already looks like the best running back prospect out of high school in many years. Is Kuzdzal the ceiling for an RB3? Any other program who looks at this running back room will look at us and say "shut up". You wouldn't expect meaningful playing time from anyone else. 3. Hot Takes, Wide Receivers, and Tight Ends Starts at 1:14:40 Takes hotter than Ann Arbor during Art Fair. The wide receiver room... exists! Do you remember the last Michigan receiver to have a 1,000 yard season? Some guys just have it, Andrew Marsh has it. Who's the last Michigan receiver to live up to this hype? Nico Collins? They import JJ Buchanan in the way that Devin Funchess was a tight end, he's your jump ball guy. Salesi Moa and Travis Johnson are true freshmen but they're the next two guys being mentioned. Salesi Moa blew everyone away at the Polynesian Bowl, you hope for him to be Michigan's Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Travis Johnson seems to be WR4 but also one of the fastest guys on the team, how much play time can you expect? Jaime Ffrench comes in from Texas, Michigan barely had a receiver room when he committed, he's in a weird situation. Channing Goodwin is getting some chatter again. Who are the jet sweep guys, Moa and Marsh? This is the thinnest tight end room we can remember. There isn't a Colston Loveland type guy but Zack Marshall looked really good last year and has a captain mentality. They say Hogan Hansen is healthy and ready to go but he's been hampered by injury and is probably a bit behind physically. Jalen Hoffman is ready to step up and be that dude as a blocker. Also he can catch the ball! They're talking about freshman Mason Bonner in wide receiver-y ways. Eli Owens (Thump) wants to be Max Bredeson but it's only his 2nd year. 4. Offensive Line Starts at 1:57:36 Brian was despondent when linemen hit the portal in the offseason but they all came back. Jake Guarnera is the center and there's no question about it - that being locked down is so important. Andrew Sprague should also be great, he's the locked in right tackle. It's a good thing when Texas comes for your linemen (as long as you keep them). How good of a pass protector can he be, though? They just imported Jim Harding from Utah, regarded as one of the best offensive line coaches in the country. The offensive line has question marks but they're good question marks. Blake Frazier was the lightest guy on the line but he's put on 20 lbs, he should be improved at left tackle. Babalola's progress is the only reason he's not locked in. There's the "Rhino" role for a 6th offensive lineman so there are positions for everyone. They're hyping up Babalola a lot in practice. The incoming freshmen are great but they're freshmen. Evan Link looks to be your starting left guard, he massively improved at left tackle last year after a rough freshman year but this should be a better suited role for him. There's competition for right guard but not for left guard so he might be a pretty solid option. Right guard is a competition between Brady Norton and Nathan Efobi. People are very high on Ace Hamilton. The offense as a whole has a lot of talent but it's so young, they don't have a senior leader. This team will probably still feel like they're a year away.
