CHICAGO – Saturday night’s thriller between budding rivals Penn State and Rutgers in Piscataway, N.J., was the highest-rated college football game that day in the New York and Philadelphia DMAs, according to Nielsen LPM Overnights. The game, which Penn State won 13-10 in the waning seconds, earned a 4.4 rating in Philadelphia, surpassing the 2.7 rating earned by Georgia at South Carolina, which finished second. In New York, it scored a 2.2 rating, vs a 1.7 rating for No. 2 rated Purdue at Notre Dame.

"Big Ten Treasure Hunter" on BTN was an interesting show. I wasn't planning on watching, but did and it was interesting (especially the Indiana fan). Fast-forwarded/skipped the ScUM fan.

The Nebraska fan didn't seem to want to let go of his items, but he also knew what he was doing.

Not bad of a show. Will probably watch again, because I think there are multiple OSU fans in the future.

I liked it as well. I felt like I could connect, being a Buckeye memorabilia hoarder myself. I couldn't imagine though letting go of any of my stuff. These aren't some chump oil can collections, these are priceless items with emotional attachments.

Dang.

Hey Purdue,
I'm sure you guys have some rocketship or some other nerdy engineering marvel to fund, but do you mind at least putting $5 or $6 million of that $50M towards some assistant coaches and facilities?

Matt Millen leaving ESPN, will return to Fox Sports
By John Ourand, Staff Writer

Published May 25, 2015, Page 10



Matt Millen is leaving ESPN to return to Fox Sports, the media company where he rose to be the No. 2 NFL announcer at the turn of the century, according to several sources.

The longtime football analyst will become the lead football analyst for the Big Ten Network, paired with Kevin Kugler. Glen Mason was paired with Kugler as the network’s top game analyst last season.

Is BWI excited about this? I think he's a twat, but that's an IMO.

His reputation took a hit when he was the GM of the Lions. He was dreadful, but the thing I like about him is that he admits he was bad. I also like that when all of CFB punditry declared OSU dead after Va Tech last year, he was one guy who disagreed. The man knows CFB, and not only does he not seem to carry a bias against OSU, he gives me the idea that he genuinely admires the program.

The BTN needs a call in show or some venue to discuss CFB in the off-season. LeCharles Bentley should host. I'd tune in.
