About this listen

Heart of the Rivalry is a Blade-produced YouTube series and podcast available on all major platforms that covers the heart of college football through the sport’s own treasured programs of Ohio State, Michigan, Toledo, and Bowling Green.

The weekly show is led by The Blade’s sports columnist, David Briggs, with co-host/producer Phil Kaplan.

This week is rivalry week number one.

The Rockets will travel south to Doyt Perry Stadium for a noon tilt with Eddie George’s Falcons and one cat.

Briggs has the insights and inside info as each team comes off a bye-week to prepare for their rival.

Will Pudge the Cat be fan-manned in at the last second? No. But does he have a busy schedule on gameday?

Busier than Phil’s — who looks to over-emphasize UT’s de-emphasizing of the idea of a big game being just any game, without understanding why over-investing emotion can lead to meandering performance and sideways results.

Ohio State and Michigan get notes of efficiency, but all eyes remain on the rocket pointed at BG’s campus in this episode.

All that and more from Heart of the Rivalry, the only show to cover exclusively the rivalry programs of Bowling Green and Toledo, as well as Michigan and Ohio State.
