Could the BIG TEN Have a WINNING Bowl Record?! | Bigger Ten

Steve and Aaron break down each and every Big Ten bowl game, and decide whether the conference could have a winning record.

The Music City Bowl poster looks like The Ketchup Bowl.

The biggest news in the B1G this week was Juwan Howard going full douchebag by getting in the face of Michigan's 6'8", 280 lbs strength and conditioning coach. This is no longer a B1G podcast. Its a college football betting podcast

[@ericpollitt7910]

Talking about these bowl games, the new members to the conference is starting to hit me. So excited for the new Big 10. Love Bowl Season.

[@stevelunde5683]

Thanks for a fun year

“If you went to public school” Steve you are a Michigan state dropout

[@danielperry770]

I think it would be cool if they replaced the other "bowl" games next year with a 16 team nit type set up with some sort of payout to players to encourage less opt outs

[@forrestclerico7687]

Listening to you guys analyze the pictures sounded like eaves-dropping on a couple woman in the canned food aisle

[@MrBobbyz24]

Army has 6 wins. No bowl. You can't tell me Minnesota has better academics than West Point.

[@jofi4580]

I am always on board for Minnesota but I completely agree. ARMY made the cut, Minnesota did not. Did they penalize ARMY for a late game, which is a tradition? If it doesn't matter then I'm amazed they didn't put Colorado in a bowl just for the noise

[@justinknoll7959]

Army shot themselves in the foot by scheduling too many FCS games, which is frustrating. All they had to do was play Uconn instead of Holy Cross smh.

[@craigwalker7693]

Coincidence we have many SEC vs BigTen games?

[@jofi4580]

Every year

[@skiparkcityut]

Miami go travel 3 hours 1,500 miles straight north to go play in the cold outside lol. Miami has no motivation but maybe also no pressure which can be dangerous

[@Troymvp]

Thanks for wasting 35 mins of my life lol, I was so excited to see what the Michigan Rose Bowl poster was going to be.

[@thedogs3467]

waiting for you

[@cameronbrennemanoutdoors]

I wish he gave us updates in x like josh pate so we knew if he was delaying the episode or if he is sick or something like that

[@joyis9638]

Good for you Steve! I was very annoyed you picked OSU and PSU to beat Michigan. Thank you! Forgiven. Re-Subscribed.

[@ernestkovach3305]

Michigan by 19 or 20 points.

[@otisjohnjr.3023]

32-16-8-4-2, and get rid of the conference championship games, too, not just the bowl games.

[@judahthekushitepharaoh4127]

GO BLUE LETS BEAT THE BREAKS OFF BAMA 45-0 Beat Bama Go Blue!!!!!

[@CadenFrisbyyyy]

Guys. Michigan had a traffic for that game 😂. You didn’t see it?

[@danschwartz1950]

Not this year. Most matchups are underdogs.

[@michaelcrabtree6276]

Milton going against the guy that took his job at Michigan

[@muhamedkozlica4147]

Yoo guys, I've been listening to your podcast for a month by now. I really like the content ure providing. It's a shame that ure not getting the views u deserve. I've made some yt shorts using your videos. Maybe that'll help u boost the views. I'll send them to u.

[@aschraub9897]

Props too Northwestern for getting a way better bowl game than we thought they would get

[@DeshCanter]

Which is to say they got a bowl game at all. Kudos to them! After they canned Fitzgerald, which was entirely stupid, I didn’t think they’d win 4 games. They won 7! Go Wildcats!

[@josecuervo3351]

Picking a Taulialess Maryland facing a talent heavy Auburn to lose… sure. But to single out Maryland to be the most lopsided bowl loss for the BIG… lol oofff… Afterwards Maryland proceeded to dominate Auburn, becoming the only BIG team to win against a SEC opponent other than Michigan. Great take gents! 😅

[@mattgonyer6518]

Go Blue!

[@skiparkcityut]

I totally think Rutgers can take down Miami. Yankee stadium in December is not gonna be Miami weather

[@allenantonio4389]

Bowl Season boys

[@st-xi3ys]

Michigan podcast 2.0

[@danswank3378]

I normally agree with you guys but Ohio state's defense is going to throttle Missouri but who knows it might be on motivated, but number of five stars on Ohio State playing for spots next year

[@johnoconnor4984]

Comparing conference records after bowl games is over.

[@otisjohnjr.3023]

All bowl games need to go away, or they'll never commit to the playoff system.

[@molonlabe9602]

Go Blue, cheat Alabama!

[@dancz11]

Go blue’. The other conference team can all lose!!

[@skylernd8323]

The big ten had the top 4 scoring defense. Because the offense in big ten sucks

[@stevenvargo2440]

Calling it...Iowa will beat Tennessee! Joe Milton will find a way to win this game for the Hawkeyes!

[@jfloyo11]

Can someone explain how 12 teams is going to work... down to 6... down to 3?

[@HttVVHttCHHHtMtCotW]

Top 4 get a bye and next 8 play first round. Winner of those 4 games play the top 4 in the second round… then you’re down to the final four

[@jfloyo11]

@@HttVVHttCHHHtMtCotW ahhhhhhhhh thank you

[@DougieG7130]

Im sorry but with all of these opt outs, bowl games are meaningless now. I really don't care what the Big Tens bowl record is because it doesn't mean anything other than a spring game 2.0 to see what next years team might look like.

[@thecoherentrambler7058]

I completely disagree. Opt outs challenge depth charts but that doesn't count out any team. I'm a buckeye I'm very interested to see how opt outs and transfers be gone, how we play against Missouri with a reduced squad this is a test of the depth of what Ryan Day has put together. And the same applies for every non playoff team it's a challenge of depth and true meaning of team

[@MrBobbyz24]

The bowl games matter when it comes to ranking teams for the next year, and for bragging rights as far as conference superiority goes

[@marks2807]

Exactly. The only Big Ten bowl that matters is the Rose bowl.

[@theghostwiththemostbabe]

​@@MrBobbyz24preseason rankings are next to worthless

[@jofi4580]

​@@thecoherentrambler7058 Good luck with that

[@skiparkcityut]

Northwestern should be way more motivated. The issue I see is Vegas is a fantastic destination but the date stinks! Dec 23 night is a horrible time to travel for northwestern fans. Lots of Utah fans will just drive and have zero travel issues. Plus a ton of Utah alumni in Vegas anyway or super close in southern Utah , northwestern. It’s a great game for northwestern I just hate the date of it

[@carlknepfler8976]

I really dont understand why everyone things Alabama will win. Mark and Aaron now have both said Alabama without much justification for it. Just the brand I guess, shouldnt your boys be better than that Steve?

[@danswank3378]

Write out of the box. 15 teams three rounds that would end up with the championship game over in three plus weeks

[@nicholastaiariol2631]

Devin Brown is terrible and will let the entire big 10 down single handed

[@scarletloki6315]

He isn’t terrible he is better than Kyle could ever be that’s why when Ryan Day took a vote before the season on the starting QB the coaches favored brown 7 votes to 4. The players rallied around Brown and wanted him to start as well, and every time Devin came in the game the team had way better energy and scored almost every time rather it was Brown rushing for a score or throwing. And when Brown is in the game since he is a better runner than Kyle our run game with the running backs open up a ton and our yards we carry were way better with him in the game as well. Maybe pay attention and read between the lines before making a dumb ass comment. Day choose Kyle because he was scared that if he choose Devin then Kyle would transfer and OSU would not have any depth at QB in case of injury and he knew Brown would stay.

[@howardwunderlich6323]

You guys don't know what you are talking about regarding OSU's game with Missouri. First, OSU is excited to play against a quality opponent and most of their core players are going to play. Second, Devin Brown was always better than Kyle Middlin' McCord but Ryan Day made a big mistake and yielded to family pressure to play McCord. Brown is much more competitive and a better athlete. You guys are way too logical about OSU's QB situation but if Day were worried about the QB position, he would have gone into the portal. Third, OSU has gotten healthy on defense, a defense that was one of the best in the country. Missouri will be tested like they were against Georgia. Fourth, Ryan Day is going to turn the hounds loose against Missouri and play loose and free (remember the game last year against Georgia). Not tight Ryan Day and the way he coaches against Michigan.

[@thedogs3467]

poverty program. y'all are ruined

[@MissionForward3]

With all the transfers out and all the players sitting out for Ohio State, I predict Missouri beats the Buckeyes. Missouri players won't sit out. This game is important to the Tigers.

[@scarletloki6315]

OSU will have almost all starters play. Almost all draft eligible players have announced they are playing in the bowl game including Hancock, Egbuka, Hall, Simon, Burke and others. Not to mention Brown has given this team a huge shot of energy and is a better QB than Kyle.

[@danswank3378]

Penn State beat Washington with via vea. Lions will show up with a big defense in the offense. Will be able to move the ball because Mississippi hasn't seen this offense

[@scarletloki6315]

Ohio State is amped for this bowl game, Ryan and these players want this win badly. Kyle leaving has gave this team a huge shot of energy, players wanted Devin the be the starter before the season, so did the coaches. Rayn held a vote among the OSU coaches and Devin won the vote over Kyle 7-4 before the season. Devin is the better QB Day just chose Kyle because he was a more veteran player and knew that if he chose Brown Kyle would hit the portal and leave the QB depth non existent. Day choose the wrong QB it’s that simple, when Brown came in OSU scored and the team had a completely different feel because he is a great leader. Go read some quotes from Egbuka and Denzel Burke, Egbuka was throwing shade at Kyle and his lack of energy and lack of mobility then complimented Brown on his ability to throw and him being able to scramble and extend plays. Burke said he has Brown has been a monster in bowl prep with great accuracy and that he has a Cannon for for an arm (Egbuka said the same thing. When the O lineman was asked about Kyle transferring they had a short answer and mentioned how he told some people but they found out about it through Twitter, Kyle didn’t have a great relationship with the o line or most of the locker room, not saying they disliked him but I am saying they weren’t close like Devin is with the team. Read between the lines and watch the interviews of the players and you’d see Brown is a better QB.

[@dbungart3044]

Everyone watched Devin play in the first couple games. He just looked worse than Kyle in most ways.😊

[@scarletloki6315]

He never really got a chance he was out there for one or two series and was pulled even on series they scored on. Once the season went on he started to look much much better. He had two TD passes that showed his arm talent one to Innis and one to Carnell Tate that looked better than any pass McCord has ever thrown. Not to mention the fact he can run which Kyle couldn’t.

[@michaelcrabtree6276]

Alabamas defense isn't better then psu,osu or the Hawkeyes defenses

[@johnoconnor4984]

Do those teams have 5 first round draft picks like the tide does?

[@ericpollitt7910]

Really looking forward to the Most Overrated Coach Bowl in PSU v Ole Miss

[@johnoconnor4984]

Comment of the day

[@loganzirkle3835]

Utah is better than Northwestern.

[@jofi4580]

I'm inclined to agree

[@malachimckinney156]

I’m really superstitious every big game u have picked against us and we keep winning man please pick bama to just keep the energy where it is

[@ericspicer5132]

I don't see a winning record. The way I see it Likely wins: Ohio State 50/50: Minnesota, Rutgers, Penn State, Maryland Likely losses: Iowa, Northwestern Near certain losses: Wisconsin, Michigan

[@terrillistreality2191]

24 team playoff

[@jofi4580]

64 team super League. Or an even bigger three tiered EPL style relegation system. And eliminate ESPNs monopoly on the post season. Both options remove media involvement and opinion based rankings

[@goblue9828]

NW: nice design; would be better without the LV sign (A-) MIN: the extra stuff on each side of the player feels forced (C+) RUT: simple but clearly communicates the message (A) PSU: design is WAY too busy after the title, (C) Ohio: design would be better as just the helmet with the hat and the trophy (C) MD: feels more like a concert with football players? (C+) WIS: LSU logo and a lot of text not legible (D+) IOW: Is this a giant statue of Nebuchadnezzar? are the fans supposed to bow at the sound of the music? (D+) MICH: failed to turn in the assignment (F) Ticket designs are much better than these posters. Do away with these stupid bowl games. Set up a Conference Supremacy tournament. Pit 1-14 against like ranked conferences and divisions (B1G E v SEC E 1-7; B1G W v. Big 12 1-7; PAC12 1-7 v ACC 1-7; All the rest play the SEC W) and rotate the match ups every year. The Conference with the most wins, wins the Conference supremacy trophy. And give each conference half road/half home games.

[@steelershayabusa4550]

Predicting these when you have no clue whose playing😂😂😂 psu n osu ad sucked. Ad people should be fired, iconic universities, helmets and mascots and thats what they came up with🤣🤣🤣

[@otisjohnjr.3023]

If all the B1G teams could lose by double digits or more but Michigan, that would be great to me.

[@brightster87]

Know your facts. McCord is the only starter in the portal. Everyone else was a 2nd or 3rd stringer. Defensive starters are not opting out.

[@jofi4580]

Maybe but that ship is going down and the rats are jumping. Toxic seas created by an entitled fan base.

[@billkinnunen2384]

Ohio State lost 14-3 Trump craps himself

[@Smahta_Dhenyu]

The big 10 had the worse set of QB outta any of the major conferences and they're outmatched in every contest. Gonna be hard getting any wins.

[@Erica-vd1gb]

Lol Iowa is not a top 25 team big ten west couldn't beat some of the best high schools

[@Erica-vd1gb]

Probably no the big ten is overrated just like Michigan Ohio state etc.
