Show notes
George Wrighster and Ralph Amsden break down Big Ten win totals for 2026, including USC Trojans football, Oregon Ducks football, Ohio State football, Michigan Wolverines football, Indiana football, Penn State football, Iowa football, Washington Huskies football, Wisconsin football, Nebraska football, and the rest of Big Ten football. In this Unafraid Show live episode, George also reacts to Matt Leinart refusing to un-retire his USC jersey for a recruit, Dante Moore opening up about his mental health and growth from UCLA to Oregon, Greg Sankey’s latest SEC power play, and the Bruce Pearl backlash. The biggest part of the show is the full Big Ten win total breakdown with George Wrighster and Ralph Amsden going team by team through USC, Ohio State, Oregon, Michigan, Indiana, Penn State, Iowa, Washington, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Maryland, Michigan State, Northwestern, Purdue, and Rutgers. George explains why USC’s 8.5 number is a pressure warning for Lincoln Riley, why Oregon’s 10.5 says national championship, why Ohio State’s 9.5 feels shockingly low, why Indiana’s 10.5 is a trap, and why Penn State, Washington, and Wisconsin all have paths to beat expectations. The episode also hits college football recruiting, NIL, retired jerseys, mental health in CFB, Greg Sankey and SEC politics, Bruce Pearl nepotism criticism, and NCAA Tournament bracket picks.
