Big Ten Football Week 2 Recap | Controversy, Upsets, and Dominance

In this week's episode, we're diving deep into the thrilling Week 2 of Big Ten football with our special guests Josh Augdahl from The Josh and JD Show, @CasualBigTen , and @BigTenTed . Don't forget to like, subscribe, and join us every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday for your Big Ten football fix.

First up, Kent and our guests discuss the controversy surrounding Mel Tucker and allegations of sexual harassment. It's a serious issue that has overshadowed Michigan State, and we're here to give you the latest updates and insights. JR did say that Athletic Director Alan Haller knew about all this in December 2022. A correction is that he started the investigation, but did not know all the details until we did.

Then, we break down all the action from Week 2, covering every Big Ten game in detail:

Nebraska's tough loss to Colorado (14-36).
Iowa's impressive win at Iowa State (20-13).
Wisconsin's unexpected fall to Washington State (31-22).
Purdue's hard-fought victory against Virginia Tech (24-17).
Illinois' disappointing defeat at the hands of Kansas (34-23).
Ohio State defeats Youngstown State (35-7)
Michigan defeats UNLV (35-7)

Plus, we've got Josh covering Rutgers' impressive win over Temple (36-7), Big Ten Ted breaking down Indiana's victory against Indiana State (41-7), and Casual Big Ten discussing Minnesota's solid performance against Eastern Michigan (25-6).

But the action doesn't stop there. We've got Josh analyzing Northwestern's victory over UTEP (38-7) and Big Ten Ted highlighting Michigan State's dominant win against Richmond (45-14). Casual Big Ten wraps it up with Maryland's comeback victory over Charlotte (38-20).
