Land-grant Holy Land: For Ohio State Buckeyes Fans

The Buckeyes took a week off but we didn’t. We wouldn’t leave our listeners hanging like that. Without an Ohio State game to break down, we opened with our weekly walk through the other Big Ten games. All eyes were on the top 10 match-up in Ann Arbor that turned out to be a terrible game.

Bret Bielema’s Illini gained bowl eligibility, some key injuries took place around the league, Wisconsin continued to be perplexing, and Nebraska is still struggling in one-score games. Beyond the B1G, there were some incredible games all day long on Saturday.
