Ep 971 - RIP Pac 12 and College Football Realignment Talk Aug 04, 2023

Show notes

The Pac 12 is effectively dead. The Big Ten now has two new members and a bunch of real estate in the PNW. Two weeks ago, none of this seemed possible, so how did we get here? We delve into the demise of the Pac 12, the events that led up to Oregon and Washington joining USC and UCLA in the Big Ten, and what exactly might happen next.

Ep 970 - 2023 IU Football Preview Part I - The Overview Aug 03, 2023

Show notes

We re-enter the atmosphere of IU sports podcasting with a bit of a "state-of-the-program" talk about IU football as the 2023 season approaches. There's a lot to talk about on this one, so we dive in and discuss the general trajectory of the program, what to make of the Allen coaching era and how it compares to previous eras of IU football, and why there are reasons for feelings of both optimism and pessimism in 2023.
We will be back with future podcasts that dive into the positions and players on a more granular basis, but this episode's focus is really about setting the landscape and figuring out our own expectations of things.

We discuss IU's permanent rivalry, the "two-play", the 2024 and 2025 schedules, and how the rest of the conference's scheduling looks.
