Jesus I see the public meltdown the #SEC is having, and I want that for the #B1G.

Should the #B1G pursue private equity and conference-level advertising? Some thoughts and analysis: https://t.co/KmxqFPgKCN

Now that the basketball war crimes are over (looking at you, #Rutgers-#Gophers), it's time to ask: which #B1GMBBT venue should be named after a war criminal?

(Plus previews of #Huskers-#Purdue, #badgers-#Illini, and your #wisconsin seven-day forecast. Link in replies.)

Much like Bruce Pearl, we finally had to speak our truth: here are all the #B1G teams who should make #MarchMadness over the Miami-Ohio RedHawks.

The reason all these slav Balkan players go to Illinois is cause Champaign reminds them of home

Anyone else miss the B1G West right about now?

@bigten It sounds like he was reading a hostage statement

Would you like 3,000 words on the #FCSChampionship between #MontanaState and #IllinoisState, SOME of which are about the Redbirds' unlikely run and SOME of which involve the author shirtless, talking to a Quantum Fiber service rep?

SURE YOU WOULD! https://t.co/7TLDQ3VTZi

It pains us to say this: we won't be surprised if the #Hawkeyes do bad things to #Vandy.

A history lesson, a #ReliaQuestBowl preview, an excuse to think about how we weren't super-sad when the #B1G lost because Bloomin' Onion >>> Coconut Shrimp.

#Illini! #Vols! What to expect in today's #MusicCityBowl, in what is only @thumpasaurus1's FOURTH opportunity to write about a #FamILLy bowl game since starting at OTE in 2014: https://t.co/iG3v7xCor8

#Northwestern football did something...

Remembering some Wildcats--Northwestern AND New Hampshire--and looking at the potential for the Chip Kelly hire in Evanston as #B1GCats OC:

Began as a GameAbove Sports Bowl preview (#Northwestern! Central Michigan! Technically football!) and a look at the fun #CMU offense, turned into a game:

Can YOU name the offensive stat where #Northwestern finished ONLY better (or worse?) than #Terps?

Someday SOMETHING will be Notre Dame's fault, but today is just not that day. Tomorrow doesn't look good, either.

Per @RossDellenger, USC is responsible for this.

"USC officials determined that the game date was not ideal considering past decisions from the CFP selection committee in punishing schools for losses, especially those late in the season." https://t.co/vTmqb4xqy6
