Roy Hall set the tone in the Big Ten Championship Game trailer.
“Every season, the goal is to climb to where the air is rare,” Hall said. “It always starts in the dark when nobody is watching. What are you willing to sacrifice to be a champion? How much blood, sweat, tears are you willing to lose just to be on top of the mountain? Some dream of the summit, but only the relentless, fearless, hungry actually rise. This is where champions are made. Only the strongest can breathe at this altitude. Only the toughest can stand where others fall. Ask yourself, what does the top look like? Then keep on climbing. ... This is the Big Ten championship, where the air is rare, where the pressure is highest and where only champions survive.”
So did Ryan Day.
“Keep pushing, man!” Day screamed. “Every day, the same brotherhood, the same love, the same passion, every day! Be different!”
It's No. 1 Ohio State vs. No. 2 Indiana.
A Big Ten championship is on the line.
So is the No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff.
Who will rise?
It better be the Buckeyes.
Season 2025, Volume 13 arrives Saturday.
