Heart of the Rivalry: A Special Force for the Falcons

Heart of the Rivalry is a Blade-produced YouTube series and podcast available on all major platforms that covers the heart of college football through the sport’s own treasured programs of Ohio State, Michigan, Toledo, and Bowling Green.

The weekly show is led by The Blade’s sports columnist, David Briggs, with co-host/producer Phil Kaplan.

This week, Briggs takes us down to Doyt Perry Stadium, where Pudge the Cat and Eddie George’s “special forces” have people peeking at the peregrines from bleachers to blankets. 

Phil takes us to the scholastic level with the completion of Under The Helmet. The Blade’s third edition of its yearly high school football training camp documentary series covered the Whitmer Panthers. 

We get a who’s who of Kalamazoo in anticipation of the Rockets visit to Western Michigan University, and at least half of the show has the Wolverines on upset alert in Lincoln, Nebraska. 

All that and more from Heart of the Rivalry, the only show to cover exclusively the rivalry programs of Bowling Green and Toledo, as well as Michigan and Ohio State.
