Oh, and there’s a relevant game in the Big Ten, too, where the winner of no. 22 Minnesota vs. no. 14 Wisconsin will claim the B1G West crown and advance to play Ohio State in next week’s conference championship game. But Gophers-Badgers is set to air on the Big Ten Network in the 3:30 ET time slot, opposite Mississippi State–Ole Miss (CBS), Florida–Florida State (ESPN), Notre Dame–USC (Fox), Baylor–Texas Tech (ABC/ESPN2), and Michigan State–Penn State (ABC/ESPN2) on the major national networks, so … good luck finding it.

2. Paul Bunyan’s Axe (Minnesota vs. Wisconsin): Beaucoup bonus points for the ax literally being a functional tool fit for a giant that could conceivably be deployed for most common ax-like purposes by any human large enough to swing it. This year, the ax will move from its traditional place on the incumbent sideline after an “incident” at the end of last year’s game that nearly led to a brawl. I think that sentence pretty much sums it up.
