10 days & counting | Brock Boyd hype train | B1G takes a big stand
About this episode
We are just 10 days away from Ohio State's 2026 opener against Ball State. And while we are excited about everything that entails, we're most looking forward to seeing the young players, such as wide receiver Brock Boyd who continues to turn heads. Also, the Big Ten took a strong stand against players who signed an NFL contract returning to college to play football. Then the SEC took a similar stance. Let's talk about what it all means.
Dave Biddle and Matt Baxendell discuss that and much more on the Wednesday 5ish.
