Just embrace it Valenti you are little Brother to Michigan, OSU, Penn State and at times Wisconsin. You are an after thought even in 2016 you were an after through even when you beat Michigan you were an after thought
“TV is ruining CFB” is not entirely wrong but a half empty spartan stadium for MSU-PSU following The Game was never a classic great CFB atmosphere/viewing experience anyway
"fall in line" lol, what's funny is MSU has won more National Championships after WWII than Michigan and it's not even close. Michigan was winning championships with players that didn't even go to their school
@@Lekcots11 really?! Are you implying that MSU is even close to the same level as Michigan because they won a few championships in the 1950s and 60’s? 😂😂😂😂😂
@@thedruekefamilyadventures8890 well considering that Michigan won their championships with players that didn't even go to their school and played 95% of their games at home, yes. I am implying it. I mean from the first game msu played against Michigan until 1951 when msu joined the Big 10, Michigan played in AA 44 times compared to East Lansing 6.
Harsh as it may be the live gate of the game at home doesn’t even remotely compare to the media money from the Big Ten deal. And they’ll get a cut of the tickets sold at the new location too that will exceed whatever was refunded to season ticket holders I’d imagine. But can’t say I’d pass up all that money if I had the offer presented to me

@Steve Kov by all measures, UM should win over MSU most of the time. It doesn't happen though and I just find it funny when UM fans try to dis MSU while Harbaugh can't get his team ready enough to beat the crappy Spartans.
@@mikepastor.k6233 Definitely a good point. Not to mention Michigan football is known for underachieving. Seeing them overachieve in 2021 and 2022 from preseason expectations is quite refreshing.
@@craigfelter Yep pretty much this. Will the atmosphere be worse than a college game on campus? Definitely. But I think MSU sells more tickets to an indoor game at Ford Field during Thanksgiving than they would a night game at Spartan Stadium. Too many fans would not brave the weather for that game. From a financial standpoint I think Ford Field makes more sense.
The Senior Day in 2015 was against Penn State and it was a beautiful sunny day and the stadium was packed. 74,000+ was at the game. That year, MSU played Rutgers in early October. I had season tickets from 2011-2016. But I agree, moving senior day to Ford Field, disgrace, Ford Field is kind of turning into a dump of a stadium (Not sorry Lions fans). Plus you think it's hard driving to Spartan Stadium in November, try driving to the heart of Detroit. You're also right about Michigan wouldn't give up a home game. Psh, they're too scared to leave AA. Remember Harbaugh flying that team to Utah in 2015? They lost. You think they want to do that again? No way.
Meh, I'm going to one MSU game this year. At Ford Field. I LOVE IT. I'm 20 minutes from Ford Field. The STUPIDEST rivalry ever was MSU/PSU at the end of the season. I guess just a bit more stupid than Wisconsin vs Minnesota. Gee....let's schedule the same game every year in the coldest weather...in the two coldest cities in the B1G. YAY! You want to talk about idiot leadership. How many showed up for the game 2 years ago in the snow in EL? Or stayed until the end??? Here's a thought, let MSU play USC or UCLA when it's 32 degrees in East Lansing!!!!! Spartans will travel in that scenario. Has anyone ever tried to get to Happy Valley? It's like being in the movie Deliverance, you have to take a river rapids ride to find it. And god forbid it's freezing weather, you get to drive up and down the hills of Pennsylvania with icey roads. You take the wrong turn going back home and you wind up in a rural town on all fours screaming SOOOOOIE SOOOOIE with a snaggle tooth man on your back. I'm LOVING IT. As for "PSU give up a home game or UM, or OSU" - Dude, they have 100k+ stadiums with fans who show up. MSU fans are pretty damn fickle and if the team be sucking, who is going to sit in freezing weather to watch a game? MSU has a 75K stadium that was empty against OSU last year. Oh, thanks for commenting on it, Fox and Kirk Herbstreit. Gotta love FOX hiring an OSU shill to drag MSU thru the mud. I'm not sure there's much lost in moving from Spartan Stadium to Ford Field if the revenues are equal. If MSU is sharing in the CFP proceeds from UM/OSU, it's kind of hard to say we're getting shafted. How much $$$ did MSU get from B1G bowl game revenues last year, after a 5-win season? Like Rico says, just win. I'll be at Ford FIeld and happy AF I don't have to drive 2 hours in ice and snow to sit 4 hours in the same.
The celebration AFTER Michigan beat OSU in that exact same storm on the same day was an all time moment. Why are Spartan fans so scared-y-cats of a little snow?
@@SmashTheNumbers Columbus and AA are warmer climates than EL. I'm sure if MSU were playing for a B1G title, Spartan Stadium would be packed as well. No one enjoys sitting in freezing weather unless you're a moron. Nor driving on icey roads.
@@YTSparty For sure, the weather can be drastically different. In the Canton area during the 2006 MSU-nd game it was barely raining if at all by me while and after that monsoon hit East Lansing. Most if not all of that storm stayed north of us.
@@YTSparty Yep and most of Wayne county gets even less snow than Ann Arbor and Monroe as well. The heat island effect often breaks up storms and pushes part of it either north or south of us. Good old Michigan weather.
The atmosphere at college football games is what makes it special and is a major reason why it's the best sport on the planet. Moving games off campus to the antiseptic, corporate and lifeless NFL stadiums is always a bad idea.
Valenti is going to eat those words. The atmosphere at Ford Field will be insane. Most of the students and Alumni are from Metro Detroit. GO GREEN GO WHITE.
Best Mike moment in months. I knew he was eventually gonna go off on the air, he's bottled up a lot of this lately. Just a reminder Mike, YOU are the one keeping this little brother nickname thing alive right now.
They are conflating a couple different issues. The question isn't whether PSU will have to play MSU next year at Heinz Field or The Linc, the true test of tv money controlling everything will be if they try to make PSU (as the home team) play the MSU game in Indianapolis since the issue is the cold weather outdoors at night on Big Ten campuses. Neither the stadiums in Pittsburgh or Philly are domes. Hell, the closest dome to State College is the Carrier Dome at Syracuse University.
MSU will be getting a check for a 100 mill starting in 2025 from the new TV deal. Michigan and Ohio State are responsible for over 70% of the Big 10 revenue thus yes they will protect them.
Mike is 100% correct on this one...We act like a second tier program...an I'm expecting second tier results. Atleast Dantonio had the balls to call out the hypocrisy.
When the big ten before it became big ten was letting Michigan state college into the conference it was not a wanted deal then lot of it has to do with Michigan they don't need an interstate rival even in academics Michigan does every thing it can to keep them from that there a cow college little brother and Ohio state doesn't need the distraction big ten yes hates Michigan state hate to say it as wolverine which makes me sick cause I got lot of beef against who supports them which are the garbage people who keep Michigan winning outside in bowl games anything post season
Yeah Mike nailed this whole segment. TV and $ is taking away what is special about CFB. Sure, why have senior day on campus potentially in the snow when you can have a 75% full Ford Field with Lions painted in the endzones feeling like the Quick Lane Bowl. It's a complete joke
Rico is so off… the 2015 senior day was Penn State and it was packed. I was at that game and it was electric coming off the OSU win in Columbus. Spartans are a bit fair weather but when they’re good, people show up.
The NCAA has become pro boxing, and the conferences have become promoters trying to protect their prospects to make the tournament. They need to adopt an NFL-esc system. Every major conference only plays their conf schedule with crossovers only being other major conferences. Playoff system to fit with wildcards and all. College fb is hurting rn and the tv deals are making it worse. Make college fb great again
Tuck comin' tho. If you don't think PSU fans will buy up 40% of the tickets... then you don't know PSU fans. And another 25% with casual neutrals and Michigan fans who want to do a night/day double header with the OSU/Michigan game the next day.
As usual he's just doing what he does best. Ranting about something that pisses him off, and while making good points he's flying off the handlebars on the issue a bit too. He's an entertainer and moments like this are my favorite parts of this show.
there will be less student support who make the noise, but a lot of happy alums that will not have to drive to East Lansing for the game, so its sort of a wash. Not that big of a deal at all. It's still a home game.
From a conference stand point, I think the TV networks/money rule over all came to light last year when Penn State wasn't able to do their White Out night game against Ohio State because Fox wanted it at noon so instead they had to do it the week before against Minnesota.
College football is a complete and utter joke right now. The conferences are either falling apart or are too inflated, the NIL has no structure, and TV money is becoming way too influential. Unless your a top tier football program it’s honestly not worth your time anymore.
Wait.....does Rico really think that Peacock would risk pissing Michigan off by forcing them into one of these ridiculous games? Not a damn chance, theyll take their noon kickoff top ratings and run
TV ruined sports years ago. Advertisements and commercials are more than 50% of football games, it's unwatchable. Going to games is a terrible experience, you just sit there waiting for commercials (that you can't see) to end
This is exactly why I stopped going to Lions games. I'm not sure if college is now as bad as the NFL, but OMFG. The time the teams are just standing around in the NFL is nauseating. You really don't notice it on TV as much. But every kick off before and after, possession change, time out, TV time out....there's a commercial. Bill Burr made a great recommendation. You record the game and wait an hour, then start watching the recording, fast forwarding thru the commercials.
It’s not as bad as it used to be. They have consciously reduced the number of commercials on college games. Anyways at noon I’m watching 6 games at once and just switch when a commercial comes on. Woila, no commercials. Be resourceful!
JC I cannot BELIEVE how pathetic so many of you are about the PSU game being played at Ford Field. Get a life. I'm an MSU alum and I think this is GREAT. No, I do NOT want this to be an annual thing. Absolutely not. But it's ONE TIME people. Get a grip. Holy shit.
It was a rotten conference when msu was winning, but now that they're on the other side its different right...but I know... Tuck is coming right, lol 😂😂😂😂
Since the stadium belongs to an NFL team and the NFL dictates what happens at NFL stadiums, would not surprise me if tailgating isn't allowed. I heard that's what happened at the Raiders new stadium.
@@slyde734 i'm not here to defend mike, being the fanatical msu slappy he is. we already clarified what he said but u can certainly re-listen to it if u're still needing further insight.
Yea I’m not a fan of this game. College football is becoming a Quasi professional league. Between NIL, lucrative TV deals that control the sport, transfer portal, and flexing schedules to ruin senior day for COLLEGE athletes, they are doing everything to sell out for quick bucks for now and ruin the sport.
Time to separate high level amateur sports from schools. Go to the European junior/pro model. Athletics and academics mixed = corruption/conflict of interest.
@@DB-xp9px Often when he has a differing opinion he's basically told to shut up and usually then caves to Mike so yeah, Rico is his puppet for the most part. He doesn't refute Mike well, Cookies on the other hand does.
@@stevekov6740 yea, Cookies holds his own w/ Mike. it's great when those 2 spar off on a topic, especially if it's UM-related. since Cookies has a more polished delivery, his points seem to carry more weight than they otherwise would.
Remember when MSU didn’t get its game against Minnesota (after they took a week off after the shooting)because Rutgers didn’t want to play a two day turn around game. Big10 didn’t help then. When do they pay it forward to us?
Ditto the Sam's Club spartan trolls obsessed with Michigan. Including my father-in-law who texts my wife and I every October 17th 'happy snap-iversary'. Trolls come from all over man and they suck. Me personally, I just find Mike Valenti entertaining. I have a love/hate relationship with the show. A lot of people are in the same boat. My friend who's an Msu fan summed it up perfectly 'Ah Mikey V, you want to have a beer with him and punch him in the gut at the same time'. (No TH-cam that is NOT a threat by any means it is a description of feelings so go cancel someone else).
@@stevekov6740 nice try walmarter 🤣 you little walmart wolverine trolls are so obsessed with MSU. You're on a Spartan podcast comment section, scum troll. 😂
@@GatorsFirm I'm not a 'walmarter' you goob. I did not go to UM Ann Arbor but I did graduate from UM Dearborn while working full time and I've been working in the engineering/construction management field for over 20 years. Plus I'm not an arrogant snob who knocks the education of a Michigan State graduate (especially if they have a nice career in their field). So if that makes me a 'walmarter' in your book, then you don't know the definition of a walmarter. You sound the type of spartan who helps make it all the more fun for me when Michigan beats Msu. ANNNND cue you mocking my education for the sake of trolling.....
You know how many of you spartan fans use the "walmart wolverine" insult? Lol it's been worn out and is just a sad coping attempt for the pathetic state of MSU. The program keeps taking a runny dump on all you fans and you just keep asking for more.
Funny how Mike acts surprised. The same university banned the words Christmas tree, merry, reindeer, gifts, wreath and bunnies. I'm glad my alma mater gave me a reason to stop watching their pathetic sports programs
MSU has to sell thier soul so they can pay that awful contract they gave Tucker. Let’s face it, msu football is done and izzo is on his way out. They better make that money when they still can

Is Rico really defending this move?
He is in this moment but as the show goes on he fully becomes entrenched with Mike's position
@@williamowen6399 crazy that ppl call rico his lap dog huh? lol
@@DB-xp9px Often when he has a differing opinion he's basically told to shut up and usually then caves to Mike so yeah, Rico is his puppet for the most part. He doesn't refute Mike well, Cookies on the other hand does.
@@stevekov6740 yea, Cookies holds his own w/ Mike. it's great when those 2 spar off on a topic, especially if it's UM-related. since Cookies has a more polished delivery, his points seem to carry more weight than they otherwise would.
@D B well, they're both MSU grads and support the teams but it is Mike's show after all Rico knows this and acts accordingly.
Little brother is OUR phrase now Michigan! You got no right to use it!
🤣🤣🤣
I agree with Mike. As an alumni, this doesn't make any sense. And yeah, little brother is back! Smh
Mike trying to deflect that Sparty is going 4-8 this year.
Do you listen to the show? He states they're going to be bad this year every chance..
Money goes to your head coach lol
Billionaire msu grad paid for tucker.
Remember when MSU didn’t get its game against Minnesota (after they took a week off after the shooting)because Rutgers didn’t want to play a two day turn around game. Big10 didn’t help then. When do they pay it forward to us?
Lil bro. Is a powder cake that is baked and will be the practice squad for the B1G 10. (Punching Bag)
Kevin warren looks like a diversity hire
Walmart wolverine trolls are obsessed with MSU. At least we have that in common, walmarters.
Ditto the Sam's Club spartan trolls obsessed with Michigan. Including my father-in-law who texts my wife and I every October 17th 'happy snap-iversary'. Trolls come from all over man and they suck. Me personally, I just find Mike Valenti entertaining. I have a love/hate relationship with the show. A lot of people are in the same boat. My friend who's an Msu fan summed it up perfectly 'Ah Mikey V, you want to have a beer with him and punch him in the gut at the same time'. (No TH-cam that is NOT a threat by any means it is a description of feelings so go cancel someone else).
@@stevekov6740 nice try walmarter 🤣 you little walmart wolverine trolls are so obsessed with MSU. You're on a Spartan podcast comment section, scum troll. 😂
@@GatorsFirm I'm not a 'walmarter' you goob. I did not go to UM Ann Arbor but I did graduate from UM Dearborn while working full time and I've been working in the engineering/construction management field for over 20 years. Plus I'm not an arrogant snob who knocks the education of a Michigan State graduate (especially if they have a nice career in their field). So if that makes me a 'walmarter' in your book, then you don't know the definition of a walmarter. You sound the type of spartan who helps make it all the more fun for me when Michigan beats Msu. ANNNND cue you mocking my education for the sake of trolling.....
You know how many of you spartan fans use the "walmart wolverine" insult? Lol it's been worn out and is just a sad coping attempt for the pathetic state of MSU. The program keeps taking a runny dump on all you fans and you just keep asking for more.
Walmart wolverine trolls are the most obsessed with MSU. I get it. I'm obsessed with MSU, too. Walmarter 🤣
Funny how Mike acts surprised. The same university banned the words Christmas tree, merry, reindeer, gifts, wreath and bunnies. I'm glad my alma mater gave me a reason to stop watching their pathetic sports programs
Sorry but what has any of that to do with sports?
@Gary Ross The University makes stupid decisions. Sports and otherwise.
Man a ton of schools do that crap. You wanna stop watching fine.
MSU has to sell thier soul so they can pay that awful contract they gave Tucker. Let’s face it, msu football is done and izzo is on his way out. They better make that money when they still can
The school didn’t pay for tucker lol
@@stephensmith1953 the Tucker part was more of a joke. I don’t see msu football being good anytime soon so they might as well make what money they can
Valenti knocked it out the park with that take. 9 mil coach 10 cent athletic department line i'm stealing
