As your proverbial hatin' on the Big 10 and PAC 12 SEC fan, we are now in this together brother! Bigger fish to fry than our insignificant "good clean hate" on the gridiron; nicest way possible! The soul of America is at stake!
I'm a Nebraska guy saying this but I can only imagine how disappointed Ohio State is... They had a legitimate shot at a national championship. They're firing on all cylinders. Totally sucks
As a Husker fan watching all of this unfold, it seems to me OSU has been robbed of a potential National Championship, a potential Heisman winner in Justin Fields and more. For the Huskers it is being robbed of a key year in the rebuild of giving young talented players valuable game experience.
As a Buckeye Fan, Im never going to get over what they did to my Football team this year, The Robbed us of a chance at a title and Justin;s chance to win the Heisman, We wont ever see Justin or any of our Sr 's play again and the underclassmen leaving for the NFL , Im beyond bitter at this point
I’m going to argue that Nebraska’s loss of a season is far more damaging to their program than that of what Ohio State is losing, because OSU has some very stable ground to build on. However, missing a year in a rebuild can actually put your program back 2-3 seasons at the least. I think it’s abhorrent for ANY program or conference to try this bullshit and still try and represent themselves as a functional program or conference. Unfortunately for the schools in the Big 10, they never got the chance to say how they felt or how they wanted things to go, and just had things agreed on for them. THAT is even sadder than anything I can imagine. As an SEC fanatic, but more importantly, a true lover of college football, I’ll openly invite Michigan, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Iowa, Penn State, Nebraska, and whatever other schools that have the TESTICULAR FORTITUDE to actually want to try and play to start the honorary “SEC North” so they can play football. If y’all kick our asses, that’s a great story. But playing football, point blank, is an even better story and I hope to God that these schools find a way! Roll Tide but thinking about the Big 10! God Bless you all and good luck! God willing, my Crimson Tide can kick the shit out of one of you guys😎 in a CFP Game. In all seriousness, I’m actually praying that the teams that wanna play from up there get to play. It’s a fucking travesty, otherwise.
@Coolhand850 He is right, even as an Ohio State fan, the JT first down call in 2016 was close, but Ohio State got the benefit of the doubt, and though there was a call that went in favor of Miami that would have else wise ended the game, they're still mad about the pass interference to this day.
If I played in the Big Ten. I’d be telling all my teammates to file for transfers. Force these schools to leave the conference or be forced to lose their teams. Only other way to make this work
I hope the SEC/Acc in big 12 or successful!! So Kevin warrn Big Ten commissioner will be fired nothing like this ever happens again!! And yes I am in Ohio State big 10 Fan
I admit I'm not listening much to the Big 10 rollercoaster but I haven't heard ANY talk on the PAC 12... Just a waste of breath? No outcry? PAC 12 fans that broken?
As a Penn State fan, this whole thing is a disaster. This is one of those years where everything was aligning and they had a real chance to win the conference and get into the playoff. Now that opportunity is gone and next year is a different story. Also, many businesses in the small town of State College where Penn State is rely heavily on the 6 home football weekends to become profitable. The lack of football will severely hurt many of those businesses. There are so many far-reaching effects of this horrible decision.
Let these young adults play! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and they deserve to make their own personal choice on if they feel safe to play or not.
U of M President Schlissel is political too. For example, after Trump won the 2016 Election , Schlissel sent an email to all the students in which he basically said that there had just been a great tragedy, and he encouraged students to grieve.
How cool would it be if Ohio State was invited to play with the SEC just this fall, special year. Maybe bring Michigan as well. Screw Michigan, they suck. Wisconsin please.
The Bigten should be scared, these athletes are some of the healthiest people/lowest risk people on the planet, both due to their age, as well as their world class conditioning, not to mention a medical staff that is world class. So instead, they don't play, and somehow that reduces the chance of them contracting COVID?
Clay... I think you are being overly optimistic about the future of the B1G Conference. The management of the conference reflects a 1960s management style that should have died a long time ago. It took them twenty years to finally decide to allow teams that didn't make the Rose Bowl to play in another bowl game. That screwed Michigan, Ohio State, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Purdue, and even Indiana and Northwestern out of millions of dollars in bowl revenue. The conference became the Big Two and the Little Six because the lion's share of the money went to Michigan and Ohio State. Then, there were television rights... The B1G didn't even think about pushing to televise games until the 1990s. Now, they want to cancel the season because of COVID-19? This is the type of short-sighted thinking that destroys business organizations, not perpetuate them. Unless this conference grows up and grows up fast, it will shatter into pieces and come to nothing... sooner than they think! Ohio State is going to have a hard time going to their legislature to ask for money to cover the shortfall from not having a football season. The Iowa legislature will likely start pushing Iowa to leave the B1G for the Big 12 so Iowa can play Iowa State more often. The Nebraska unicameral legislature cannot be happy about what it will do for Nebraska. Many of the Nebraska senators did not like Nebraska bolting for the B1G in the first place, but they were promised more money and greater exposure for their program. Now, when the revenue goes down to zero, they are not on television, and the concession people out of a job, there will be a lot of people upset and demanding that they correct matters... sooner rather than later... no pun intended.
Isn't sports in general all about read-and-react and pushing fear aside? What do the cancel-culture conferences think their kids are learning that will pay off for them in their lives ahead?
Do you think, or anyone out there reading this think that Ohio State and other Big 10 teams could play as independent (for this season) and get into games with the other playing fall conferences?
When this whole SARS2 shit ends, or at least gets to a point where life can at least resume in a way that's halfway manageable, I think that Dr Anthony Fauci deserves a present. Something nice. I just want to make sure that that man gets exactly what he deserves.
@@benhenderson3947 I don't want to reward him! NO! This is a special surprise that I have just for him. But...only on ONE condition will he get it. He must be willing to meet me at a remote location minus his version of the secret service. Just he and I...that's the...umm...condition ;-)
I don’t have a dog in the fight. I live in Idaho but I think the Big Ten commissioner along with the governor of Michigan and let’s throw in the mayor of Chicago all need to lose their jobs. All of these decisions that have been made by these worthless politicians are all politically motivated.
Ha! This thread looks like some kind of Dufus land. The B10 made the right decision as did the PAC10. In time, We may be telling these other conferences that we told you so, now that Vanderbilt suspended all football activity on Saturday. Here in the B10, most see it as the right call to not have fall sports. We are not petrified at the thought that these other conferences have full seasons, but we do see it as being highly unlikely.
911! Red alert! danger Will Robinson danger! What's being exposed in the big ten and the pac-12 is an example of the injustice in the college football system. Everyone involved in the issues needs to have a voice and a vote at the table. We need to address some systemic issues with college football and take advantage of the opportunity to fix as many problems with the system as we can. If an 18 year old can serve in the military and die for his country, but an 18 year old student-athlete cannot make the decision whether he wants to play and take the risks or not???
They are also afraid of the massive blowback they'd get if there was outbreak among athlete's, coaches, support staff and student workers. If they get sick and have long term or even short term problems like lung lesions or heart problems they would get massive lawsuits and they'd blowback would be huge when it gets to the media. They chose to be responsible rather than risk the health of student athlete's.

Can we please not make the pandemic political? Everyone needs to and wants to get back to work. COVID is very real and the longer we keep trying to pretend it isn't a problem, the longer it's going to stick around.
I hope Ohio State, Michigan, Nebraska and Penn State all leave the big ten after this BS. Those are 4 top 8 all time programs. They bring the big ten over $100M a year over all sports. Easily $100M. The big ten can't afford to lose any of those schools let alone all 4. The big ten not playing is a big problem. This will impact recruiting. Maybe not for the 4 programs I listed, given their brand, but the other 10? It will absolutely impact them in a negative way. To me, this is the beginning of the end of the B1G. Oh well. 4 playoff spots and 5 major conferences never made sense anyways. I hope all 4 of the teams I named join the big 12 so they can play other top 8 all time programs like Oklahoma and Texas.
I am praying for SEC, BIG 12, ACC for great successful season! Yes I am a Buckeye!
Classy bud, quit making me not dislike OSU hahaha
I second that motion
Former Michigan fan
I agree completely, fellow buckeye fan here. Good luck SEC, BIG12, and ACC. F' the big ten.
As your proverbial hatin' on the Big 10 and PAC 12 SEC fan, we are now in this together brother! Bigger fish to fry than our insignificant "good clean hate" on the gridiron; nicest way possible! The soul of America is at stake!
@@michaelbarclay1327 Agreed.
Fire the big ten commissioner and any other administrative member of the big ten that supports cancelling the football season
Its political. Period.
at this point I can't believe anyone would think otherwise
Look up the bios of the Big Ten presidents and the commissioner. It's very obvious who they want to win the election.
I'm a Nebraska guy saying this but I can only imagine how disappointed Ohio State is... They had a legitimate shot at a national championship. They're firing on all cylinders. Totally sucks
The Rough and Tough Big 10, Wimps out. Woody Hays will haunt them.
@Coolhand850 sorry my mistake, I was a Pac 8 fan back then. Now in NC for 30 yrs all ACC and SEC..😁
I had to give you a thumbs up on that one. 100 % truth. As would Bo. Michigan fan ! Sickened by this horse shit ...
It's hard to wrap my head around this...High school football starts tonight in Nebraska yet no Big10 football this fall. Un-f'n-believable
If Delaney was still commissioner they'd be playing.
What a great interview. I miss sportswriters like Jeff. Follows the story. No hot take garbage. Need him on Outkick team.
I’m a PSU alumnus and I hope the SEC and Big 12 and ACC have great seasons to prove the Big 10 to be the wimps that they are

Huge Michigan fan and I didn’t hear of snook before this but he is a great interview and makes great points
But at the same time spare me the tears about getting bad calls. Osu ALWAYS gets the calls
@@garymoore1600 Apparently you did not watch the Fiesta Bowl...

Michigan? Are they good? No. Congrats on 3rd place in the East! 🥉〽️🏈💀
EXCELLENT interview!
Buckeye fan here. Im rooting for the cincinnatti bearcats this year.
Oh Shit!!!!!!!!!!!! What if Cincy runs the table & has a special season? Will you ever be a buckeye fan again?
go cats! always number 2 in our hearts
Thank you Clay and Jeff, from an OSU fan.

Its what happens when you don't base your decisions on hard facts ,the rest of the leagues will do awesome this year. Out kick told them
In person classes, but no sports. 🤔
And intramural sports are going forward!
@@uba51 I would ask if you're kidding, but we live in Bizarro World......
Zachary Fett Sadly, it’s true.
My niece moved into her dorm today at Ohio State, 60,000 students allowed on campus but the football players can’t play wow
I hope the SEC/Acc in big 12 or successful!! So Kevin warrn Big Ten commissioner will be fired nothing like this ever happens again!! And yes I am in Ohio State big 10 Fan
Clay travis is AMAZING tHANK YOU FOR HELPING kEEP FIGHTING FOR US
nebraska needs to leave the Big Ten or I will sue the university for making my business go bankrupt .
Wow if the other leagues manage to play games and have a successful season the B10 might never recover from this.
I agree I think the pac 12 would be finished they’re already behind.
Being too risk-averse is ultimately too risky.
Lightning strikes DO happen. We go outside, anyway.
they're just using covid and "avoiding risk" as a cover, it's obviously political
Your background audio flickering is more than annoying.
I admit I'm not listening much to the Big 10 rollercoaster but I haven't heard ANY talk on the PAC 12... Just a waste of breath? No outcry? PAC 12 fans that broken?
Does the PAC 12 have any fans? LOL!
All the PAC 12 schools are in states that are on left-wing liberal lockdown

Liberal legislatiors?
Nobody from Ohio State should ever complain about losing on a bad call after the 2003 Fiesta Bowl
I'm a buckeye fan also and i will be rooting for the sec the acc and the big 12
Big Ten states, vote accordingly. You know the party responsible for this.
Not an Ohio state fan. They got screwed anginst Clemson!
Yes !!!!
As an OU fan I feel sorry for ohio state. A good team that would be battling to be in the playoffs got screwed. Let the boys play.
