There's no doubt that the Ohio State/Michigan rivalry is the greatest in all of sports. To me, anyway. And probably to you! The Game is an entrenched part of our lives that is really a weird, indescribable thing that we love to love but can't really explain to someone who hasn't experienced it exactly why we love it.
This week, Beau and I try. Sure, we break down the ins and outs of the game and how Jim Harbaugh and Urban Meyer have changed the tenor of this thing in a way we haven't seen since the 70s, but really this is a podcast about why we love this rivalry and what it means for the state of Ohio. I'm a native-born Ohioan with brain trauma from the 90s, Beau is a wee bit older and from the wilds of Montana, and each of us have a unique connection to this thing that stretches back well over a hundred years now.
That's important to recognize, appreciate, and talk about. We hope you're enjoying this Michigan Week, and we hope you enjoy your Thanksgiving.
0:00- We spend about 20 seconds talking about Michigan State, and then move on to The Game and how Kids These Days think of it in a completely different way than the rest of us old people.
11:35- This is a special week for a lot of reasons, and Beau and I talk about what Saturday means for people in this state from about every possible angle.
27:40- "Jim's a worthy adversary." He is, and we talk about some of the important matchups that Urban Meyer and company need to exploit if they want to win.
39:45- YOU CAN'T ESCAPE THIS, IT'S IN YOUR BLOOD!
Sorry all, no Ask Us Anything this week but I promise that it will be back next week, plus that very special guest that we teased a little in the Dubcast. Thanks again to Travis for the awesome Dubcast logo, and let's kick some Wolverine ass. See you in a week!
