Standby, I'll fill in details.. re: Big Ten
Rush is talking it NOW!

"The NFL is playing, other colleges are playing, LSU is playing."

ETA: he also said something about the Florida Gators being pussies for cancelling the LSU game over a hurricane that had little chance of affecting Gainesville. And the arse-whopping LSU put on Texas A&M last November.

(just kidding)

it was a LONG segment at the beginning of Hour Three, basically about why the Big Ten changed their mind, and how the NFL never caved to Wuhan/Corona. He said, early on "The NFL is playing, other colleges are playing, LSU is playing."

Then the rest of the segment, Rush primarily broke-down THIS article by another dumb bitch liberal "sports" reporter that is being discussed on MoreSportsBoard:

MSB: Big Ten's decision to play football signals darkest day in conference's sports history
I'll quote it how the OP on MSB did (credit to Dire Wolf):
quote:

For decades, the Big Ten has thought of itself as a different kind of sports conference, one that proudly touts the academic achievements and Great Lakes values of its like-minded, highly-regarded, internationally-ranked research institutions. The Big Ten wasn’t the SEC; it wasn’t the Big 12. It was better than that, and it was happy to tell you all about it.
quote:

As proof, one only had to look at the conference’s prudent August decision to shut down fall sports in the midst of the global pandemic. It was only natural that the Big Ten would follow the Ivy League, and that the Pac-12 would follow the Big Ten. It was a tough decision, heartbreaking and costly, but it was the right one.

That’s the Big Ten for you, concerned about science, medicine and safety. Let the football factories of the SEC, Big 12 and ACC (Clemson’s playground) continue playing; the Big Ten was doing the right thing looking out for its student-athletes, treating them almost no differently than the student body at large, and that was all that mattered.

Then came Wednesday, the darkest day in Big Ten sports history, the day the vaunted conference caved. It choked. It got scared. It became the SEC.
quote:

Just as the Big Ten was looking smarter by the day as COVID-19 outbreaks popped up at Michigan State, Wisconsin and Maryland while other conferences playing football announced COVID-related postponements and soaring cases, the league’s presidents reversed themselves and decided to steer their schools and their football programs right into the teeth of what are predicted to be some of the worst days of the pandemic in October and November.

This college football season is dumb, just like baseball with cardboard people and the kneelers. It’s just a bunch of scrimmages , means nothing.

No way. We all know the darkest day was 9/1/2007. Michigan's loss to Appalachian State.

More than the Sandusky verdict? More than the coverup of the abuse at Michigan State? More than Woody Hayes punching out an opposing player?

You know what she’s really scared of?

That Big 10 football will come and go with no real ill-effects from Covid.

That is the most frightening proposition for the true believers.

Seems like I remember Florida making their way to Baton Rouge and embarrassing the tigers that year.
