Chalk this up as a true realization of the Big Ten's current place in the college football landscape: Michigan and Ohio State are to play the greatest rivalry in arguably all of sports for the 105th time Saturday in Columbus, and all anybody is talking about is a Big 12 game. It's all about ...

I just really like saying the nicknames for all of the games this week and talking about all of the traditional trophies that are given out for the games. While many consider the bowls the tradition that is college football, it’s really these games and rivalries that go far beyond a ...

Not much of a surprise here. ESPN Gameday made a clean sweep today for Penn State. Well, on to Michigan at Ohio State. Check out the ZN Open Thread below and on the Pregame & Postgame sidebar, in the "Big Ten Title Game: Your Complete ZN Coverage" post.

WEST VIRGINIA (-7) at Louisville: Since joining the Big East just a few short years ago, this game has turned into one of the premier rivalries in the conference. Ok, I know it’s Big East football and you could probably care less. But seriously, even though both teams carry less than lackluster ...

I’ve gone 14 for 20 the past two weeks (70%) and have climbed back above .500 (55-54) on the year. Now, for the kill: Ohio State (-20.5) vs. Michigan– Not a good way to end Rich Rod’s first year, but they’ll be back. The Buckeyes roll here. Ohio State 31, Michigan ...

No. 8 Penn State hosts Indiana this week, as we all try to cope with the Iowa loss. I thought some questions were appropriate. The usually unusual suspects: There is No Name on My Jersey Tangled Up in White and Blue Y. F. Yurasko Happy Hour Valley Black Shoe Diaries The Nittany Line We ...
