BIG 10 SQUAD: The Big 10 is REELING | Can the Conference RESPOND?

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 17 Sep 2026 21:00:00 GMT

Big Ten faces scrutiny as Michigan’s controversial win sparks debate—can the conference restore its reputation before playoff selections loom? The Big 10 Squad breaks down the FBS Oversight Committee’s ruling on the Michigan–Western Michigan officiating drama and question the value of public apologies with no actual remedies. With underwhelming showings from Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, and more, is Indiana really the conference’s best hope for national championship glory?

The panel spotlights UCLA’s momentum, USC’s 30-point fourth-quarter leads, and Washington’s offensive woes—while poking fun at Purdue’s heartache and Maryland’s September hot streak. Are the Big Ten’s marquee teams ready to step up, or will non-traditional contenders like Maryland and Indiana carry the torch? Matchups to watch include Colorado at Northwestern and Virginia Tech at Maryland, with playful shots and bold predictions adding intrigue to the Big Ten’s unpredictable landscape.

Michigan Facing BLOWOUT vs Oklahoma or MIRACLE Turn Around in One Week?

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 10 Sep 2026 10:00:00 GMT

Coming off a controversial "win" Michigan football enters Week 2 of the college football season with the tall task of playing 11th ranked Oklahoma in a Big Ten - SEC matchup. Kyle Whittingham will have to figure a way to get quarterback Bryce Underwood to play better quickly. Oklahoma comes to Ann Arbor with a fantastic dual threat quarterback of its own in John Mateer.

We also discuss the NCAA's laughable new rules for how the clock on the stadium scoreboard shall be utilized at the end of games moving forward thanks to the Big Ten's sloppy protocol at the Big House Saturday. It also appears we are nearing an announcement about a 24-team college football playoff. And we list all 17 Big Ten TV times and broadcast networks for the upcoming weekend (Northwestern has a bye). Plus, we close with our weekly Big Ten Classics segment!

Episode 645: Northwestern 34-South Dakota St. 18

West Lot Pirates — Wed, 09 Sep 2026 02:53:04 GMT

Woah baby! What a way to start the season! There is so much to talk about coming out of this game from the resurgent offense from Aiden Chiles and the 3 Headed monster at running back to the outstanding play of the defensive backfield checking in with 13 passes broken up. Tonight we'll get into all that and more as we recap the Cats' 34-18 win over the Jackrabbits.

Michigan's Kyle Whittingham MUST SIT Bryce Underwood and DEVELOP Tommy Carr ASAP!

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 08 Sep 2026 10:00:00 GMT

It's time for Michigan football coach Kyle Whittingham to do the right thing and bench quarterback Bryce Underwood! It's not working and the college football season is underway so there is no time to waste. Michigan did not hire Whittingham to keep running the status quo. It is time for a bold move and as long as he has to develop a quarterback we think he should spend his time with freshman and Michigan football legacy Tommy Carr!

We have the latest Big Ten football injuries at Indiana and Northwestern coming off week one of the college football season. We also have a peak behind the scenes of Nebraska football and one of Oregon football's hot recruits is on fire at the high school level.

Plus we share our Tuesday Tweets! (Michigan football fans may want to sit that segment out following this past weekend's clock management controversy!)

West Lot Pirates — Tue, 25 Aug 2026 23:25:21 GMT

After our scouting previews of 20 different teams, at last we come to the one we're all here to see. Tonight, we break down the 2026 Northwestern Wildcats, diving deep into the Offense, Defense and Specials. This is a season which will see titanic changes to the program, from opening a new stadium to the splashiest coaching hire in school history. What is the outlook for the Cats this year?

West Lot Pirates — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 02:18:29 GMT

Tonight, we wrap up our Summer Previews with a look at Ohio State, Minnesota and Illinois. Sure the trip to Columbus will be difficult, but, much like last year, the final two games against the Gophers and Illini may very well tell the story of the entire Northwestern season.

Momentum for NEW 20-Team CFP Plan or Another Dumb Idea?

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 13 Aug 2026 10:00:00 GMT

ESPN (and presumably the SEC) has a new plan for a 20-team college football playoff format. But the Tony Petitti and the Big Ten are sticking to their preference for a full blown 24 team format. We tear both CFP plans apart as we actually prefer a smaller playoff plan. We share all the details here!

We give you all the details on Northwestern's new $35 million dollar donation that arrived with the opening of their new Ryan Field Stadium. Is Northwestern ready to jump to the top tier of Big Ten football?

We have injury updates at Oregon and Michigan and we tell you when you can check in on your favorite Big Ten team on the Big Ten Network with training camp updates on our weekly Big Ten Classics segment!

Michigan ALREADY LOST to Ohio State!

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 03 Aug 2026 10:00:00 GMT

New Michigan football coach Kyle Whittingham is dead wrong about his approach to the Ohio State football rivalry and if he doesn’t ratchet up some hatred for the Buckeyes he may find himself 0-1 against them at the end of the college football season. Maybe things were different when he coached his Utah football team against BYU in the Holy War but we guarantee Ohio State football coach Ryan Day hates Michigan football with a passion.

We have the latest on the Save College Sports Act as the Big Ten and SEC are now throwing their support behind the Bill after stiff negotiations.

And we think there are some great story lines brewing with the Washington Huskies, Nebraska Cornhuskers, Northwestern Wildcats and Maryland Terps to put a final bow on last week's Big Ten Media Days.

Now let's get some old fashion Michigan - Ohio State rivalry comments going back and forth in the comments section!
