Cats' football is back, and so's Styre!

As always, thanks for this.

 

[cedricmelons]

God's work, Styre!

Also, great to have Jared Thomas on the color commentary for the Cats game!

 

[NUCat320]

Matt Barkley on the BTN! Maybe one day he’ll (or OJ Simpson) (or Reggie Bush) will get a Big Ten Legends episode.

I’ve never heard of Yogi Roth (given name Yogi), but he went from walking on at Pitt and rooming with Larry Fitzgerald to Pete Carroll’s coaching staff to writing a book with Pete Carroll to filmmaking and motivational speaking.

@Styre, if you think this is long, wait until the actual basketball schedule…

14 hours of non-stop Big Ten football…🤤🤤🤤

A little sad to see Tim Brando and Spencer Tillman are no longer broadcast partners.

He was Ted Robinson's long time broadcast partner on the lead Pac-12 Network team. Robinson is now calling games on the CW with Ryan Leaf.

A little sad to see Tim Brando and Spencer Tillman are no longer broadcast partners.

Yeah, agreed. They're both still working for Fox, but Fox put Tillman with Eric Collins for some reason.

Love Jared. Great guy. Met him a few times out in Chicago. Lisa Byington is terrible though. Fire up the WGN Radio stream for those who aren’t going.

Great job as usual Styre! Lazy Boy is fully operational, lots of Moosehead in the mini-fridge and Big Ten network readily available on Spectrum. Life is good. Cat's now favored by 3.5, but I believe they will win by double digits.
