5 Reasons BIG Ten Football Is A MUST WATCH in Week 5

In this video, the discussion opens with the news of USC's Bear Alexander opting to redshirt, reportedly due to dissatisfaction with his playing time. JR and guest Nick reflect on his decision, posing the question of whether college football is facing a larger structural issue and exploring potential solutions. They also cover the recent discussions between SEC and Big Ten officials on the College Football Playoff (CFP) format, NIL challenges, and a potential scheduling agreement, questioning whether these joint efforts could address the sport’s current concerns. The video then shifts focus to previewing key college football matchups, including Nebraska vs. Purdue, Minnesota vs. Michigan, Maryland vs. Indiana, and USC vs. Wisconsin. For each game, the host and guest offer insights on team strengths, keys to winning, and score predictions.
