Show Notes

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.

Bowling Green’s unlikely anti-Falcon hero Pudge the Cat takes precedent over the likes of Blair Underwood’s first road test for the Wolverines, Chip Traynum’s breakout performance for the Rockets, and the most band per capita at any college football game this year when Grambling St. visited Ohio State on alumni band day. 

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.
