Tailgate Tomorrow at Venue

Matt and the MGoBus will be hosting a tailgate starting at 2:30 PM at Venue Restaurant & Bar, 1919 S. Industrial Highway (where Lucky's used to be). See where we podcast, try the food, watch the first period of the hockey game. You can also park there—it's $50 but they give you a $50 voucher for food and drinks. RSVP here if you're coming—those who RSVP'd will get 2 drink tickets too.

[After THE JUMP: What's to be said]

---------------------

1. MSU Preview

starts at the top

How much respect do we give a QB who can lay it in there or get lit up. Jayden Reed is a star right? How much of their defensive renaissance was getting back two of their veteran stars and how much was Wisconsin's offense being so bad they got their coach fired?

2. UM Regent Jordan Acker

starts at 31:14

Direction of the university, NIL, etc. Then Brian goes YIMBY.

3. Penn State: The Offense

starts at 49:50

Blowout dissection fun time. That was lots of rushing yards: how did they do it? Maybe they shifted more McCarthy practice time to run game? It worked! What was PSU doing?

4. Penn State: The Defense

starts at 1:08:07

All aboard the Sainristil train. Minter was PREPARED for this one.

About the Featured Musician

Obviously saved this one for this one. Detroit-based White Bee (aka Shannon Maureen Barnes) is a kaleidoscope-pop/soul act who recently opened for friend of the blog Mayer Hawthorne. Also she has a song called "Beat State." Go listen to her latest album Psychedelic Flight Attendant (2020) on Spotify and report back. It's a really slick mix.

• Beat State
• Antihistamine
• Borough of Churches

Also because Across 110th Street will get our Youtubes taken down, the opener and outro:

• “The Employee is Not Afraid”—Bear vs. Shark
• “Ruska Vodka”—Motorboat
