Dylan channeled the fury of UMHoops message board posters with all the MSU simping from Brendan.

I know MSU will be better than they were yesterday, but I really really don’t see how Quinn still has them that high in the ranking. It could happen I guess, but I don’t think the pieces are there this year.

Izzo can be so over-the-top critical when he knows the local media will eat it up and carry his water

This was a very heated episode in general. When Brandon was like “That’s BS and you know it” about Dylan saying he was a Rutgers hater I was like wow this is intense. I know they don’t actually dislike each other, but I think the bickering adds a nice amount of intrigue to the podcast. This is my first season listening regularly (If posted elsewhere I would catch some scattered episodes), but I think the dynamic between analytic minded website owner vs. story driven beat writer is crazy dramatic.

Some of that stuff was weird like “if it was OSU there wouldn’t be rage” well that’s kind of the point. MSU would win by 10 today because they would be pissed?? Well they played yesterday and not today. Unfortunately Izzo has local and national media eating out of his hand.
