SHOWDOWNS: 4 In Week 4 | Bigger Ten

Steve and Aaron discuss what seems to be the cursed Luke Fickell era in Wisconsin, and look ahead to four week 4 showdowns across the league.

[@GymRat4Life01]

I think one thing you nailed is that WISC always in the past had something to hang their hat on. In many years that was the running the ball (fell off a bit a the end of the Chryst era), but they usually always had their Defense. Under Jim Leonhard, as DC, he twice lifted WISC to one of the nation's top-three defenses. However, now you have an Offense without a real identity and a Def that has regressed to average (currently 51st in Total Def). What you get is the Bama result we all witnessed.

I love Aaron being confident in Nebraska. Instead of taking a shot at us lol.

[@Swooop9530]

Agreed, while he has been pretty fair with his shots all along, tbh. GBR!

[@ericpollitt7910]

Agree 100% on standardized scheduling. College football start regular season end last weekend in November, Championship 1st weekend in December, national championship January 1st at the Rose Bowl.

Love the Tigers shirt, Steve!

[@brandonwoundpickups]

Steve, your Detroit Tigers are sneaking up on a wild card. Skooby will win some hardware this year. Wisconsin is in big trouble. Looking forward to the SC MI game. Not so sure that Michigan will eacape the season without 4 losses or more.

[@citizen862]

Go Tigers ! Love the shirt !

[@zachmartin3840]

Steve why are you the most unoptimistic Michigan fan on the planet? Have some damn faith in our team man. Yes we’ve struggled to start the year but Alex Orji imo is going to really improve our offense

[@darrellwilliams1510]

Orgi offense will be a DISASTER …unless he can pass… get ready for a LOT of 3 & outs if he can’t pass downfield.

[@zachmartin3840]

@@darrellwilliams1510 Michigan will be just fine with Orji. He presents way more of a threat than Davis Warren bc of his legs alone. And yeah his passing hasn’t been great this year but they also haven’t given him a chance to get into a rhythm

[@darrellwilliams1510]

@@zachmartin3840 Orgi only got the start after Warren threw 6 ints… if Orgi had more upside, he’d have played sooner. There’s a reason he only runs 3 plays. The move by Moore was political…Orgi isn’t suddenly more talented.

[@Swooop9530]

I thought Indiana moved around well.

[@youdontknow7190]

I think we are going to beat USC this weekend. Will see but just a feeling.

What’s your day job if you keep hinting at it🤔🤔🤔

[@platoniczombie]

Right-wing talking head basically.

[@realMal1c3]

Right wing, Christian, political commentator. That said, he started his "journalism" career in sports.

[@briannichols4856]

Indiana MAY win 8 games

[@zachmartin3840]

I’m glad I’m not the only one saying this. I’ve got a ton of friends who go to IU and they’re all trying to tell me that IU will beat Michigan. I keep telling them that they’re forgetting that they’re still Indiana, they’ll find a way to drop games they shouldn’t lose

Are you talking basketball ​@@zachmartin3840

[@j_r_junior]

Michigan will finish the season unranked as well

[@michaeljacobson7284]

Yea why even play the games when you can predict who wins

[@darrellwilliams1510]

@@j_r_junior If they lose on Saturday like they did against TX, they may be fighting for bowl eligibility.

[@Channel4Marc]

Hey guys I do believe it's a bit of an overreaction...Wisconsin will end up with a winning record and a lower teir bowl game...they are in a better situation as a program than UM

[@thomasorzack5795]

NO way-Wisc is in trouble

[@danielthornton1633]

Lmfao keep your day job, analytics isnt your forte. Wisconsin got smoked by Alabama. I get it, Texas beat Michigan, but Texas is far better than Alabama, and Alabama beat Wisconsin worse than Texas beat Michigan. I get it, Michigan doesn’t have a threatening passing attack. No elite receivers or quarterbacks. Although, Wisconsin has nothing. No pass game, no run game, no defense. Zilch.

[@robertjulieannanalett1691]

The national champs will turn it around this Saturday and introduce USC to the Big Ten go Blue

[@JohnSmith-of1tl]

Michigan will sadly get trounced again. 😢

[@lynnm40511]

Wow, dis'ing Wisky as Michigan fans this year. Wisky was a mess and was a major rebuild; Michigan was not. Wisky lost their starting QB on the first drive. Kinda an over reaction 3 weeks into the season with a 2-1 record with a loss to Bama? Are you just trying to deflect attention?

[@charliethompson21]

Michigan lost more than all but one team lol (Washington). Edit: not to mention our entire coaching staff turnover 😅

[@eddyreyna1784]

14:53 you guys have not idea how good the skill players are at USC…they have the deepest WR room in the nation
