Are the Big Ten's Big Noon Kickoffs a Blessing or a Curse?

FOX announced it will broadcast the highly anticipated Texas vs Ohio State season opening college football game. That means it will likely be part of their successful Big Noon Kickoff. But some fans are upset this game won't air under the lights in prime time!

With the Big Ten's lucrative TV deals with FOX, NBC, CBS, Peacock and Big Ten Network, some of the Big Ten's biggest games end up kicking off at noon on the east coast and 9 am on the west coast.

The Big Noon Kickoff on FOX brings in great TV ratings but one has to wonder how much higher they could be if those games were played in prime time. And we wonder if this ultimately hurts Big Ten exposure nationally.

No matter what side of the argument you favor the FOX product is excellent with Joel Klatt and Urban Meyer to name a few.

As usual we have our eye locked in on the latest recruiting talk. We have the latest on Ohio State's exciting commitment from four-star cornerback Jordan Thomas and Penn State's addition of wide receiver Davion Brown. We also dive into the competitive recruiting landscape, highlighting Michigan's potential targets and the intriguing case of Richard Wesley's commitment saga at Oregon. Is he coming or not?

In a lighter segment, we rank Big Ten mascots, crowning the Oregon Duck as the top contender, with USC's Tommy Trojan and Traveler close behind. We discuss the charm and tradition of these mascots, while also noting areas for improvement, like Penn State's Nittany Lion costume.

Don't miss our in-depth analysis and engaging discussions on the Big Ten's evolving landscape. Tune in for unique insights and lively commentary!

Discussion about college football playoff expansion is stirring up controversy, and we're diving into the heart of it. Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti, SEC commissioner Greg Sankey and the rest of the Power 4 commissioners met last week in New York to discuss the future format of the college football playoff.

It is currently set at 12 teams. Then there was talk of the college football playoffs expansion to 14 teams. But now it seems a 16 team college football playoff format is preferred. And some conferences want a couple of play-in games which would push the college football playoffs to a 20-team format.

We think this is too much! And we explain why. Tune in to find out how Big Ten and SEC greed is destroying college football!

We also dive into the latest recruiting wars for college football. Oregon is on the upswing while USC is taking some hits despite its top ranking for the Class of 2026!

Michigan softball is the Big Ten Tournament champion. But Nebraska has the player of the year. Tune in for details.

Plus we have our Top Ten Big Ten Observations from the weekend.
