  • Ohio State vs Indiana: Revenge Time? | Can Michigan Fix Its Broken Offense?
    Oct 14 2026

    Ohio State is rolling, Michigan is searching for answers, and Hate Week 365 is back!

    Jeremy and Tim break down Ohio State's 45–16 win over Maryland, including Julian Sayin's performance, Jeremiah Smith's explosive plays, and the questions that still need answering before the Buckeyes head to Bloomington for a massive matchup with Indiana.

    Can Ohio State avenge last season's Big Ten Championship loss to Indiana? We'll discuss the biggest matchups, potential weaknesses, and what the Buckeyes must do to come away with a victory.

    Meanwhile, things aren't looking nearly as good in Ann Arbor.

    What's really wrong with Michigan's offense?

    Is offensive coordinator Jason Beck the problem? Is Bryce Underwood struggling because of the system around him? Is the offensive line failing to execute? Or is Michigan dealing with a combination of poor coaching, questionable play-calling, penalties, and missed assignments?

    We'll discuss what Michigan needed to address during its bye week and whether those adjustments will actually show up against Penn State.

    In this episode:

    • Ohio State vs. Maryland recap

    • Julian Sayin and Jeremiah Smith's performances

    • Ohio State vs. Indiana preview and predictions

    • Michigan's offensive struggles and Jason Beck's play-calling

    • Bryce Underwood and the offensive line

    • What Michigan needed to fix during the bye week

    • Michigan vs. Penn State preview

    • The future outlook for both programs

    Two historic rivals. Two very different situations. One podcast that never takes a week off from the rivalry.

  • Michigan’s Iowa Collapse + Ohio State Rolls Illinois | Hate Week 365
    Sep 30 2026

    Michigan and Ohio State had two very different Saturdays, and we’re breaking down both sides of the rivalry on this episode of Hate Week 365.

    Michigan came away from the Iowa game with plenty to be frustrated about. We go drive by drive through the Wolverines’ offensive possessions, looking at what stopped them from finishing drives, where penalties and execution mistakes hurt the most, and which position groups were responsible for the biggest breakdowns.

    We also look at Michigan’s defense and the moments where Iowa was able to keep drives alive. Were the Wolverines actually getting beaten consistently, or were too many of Iowa’s opportunities created by self-inflicted mistakes, missed assignments, penalties, and bad situational football?

    Then we head to Columbus, where Ohio State handled Illinois and continued to show why its offense can be so dangerous. We break down what worked for the Buckeyes, where Julian Sayin and the passing game found success, how Jeremiah Smith affected the defense, and which Ohio State position groups stood out the most.

    Tim and Jeremy also hand out position grades for both Michigan and Ohio State, talk through the biggest positives and concerns coming out of each game, and—because this is Hate Week 365—find a few reasons for Michigan and Ohio State fans to argue with each other along the way.

    In this episode:

    • Michigan vs Iowa full reaction
    • Why Michigan offensive drives stalled
    • Drive-killing penalties and mistakes
    • Iowa drive extenders and Michigan defensive breakdowns
    • Michigan position-group grades
    • Ohio State vs Illinois reaction
    • Why Ohio State’s offense was successful
    • Julian Sayin and Jeremiah Smith discussion
    • Ohio State position-group grades
    • Biggest concerns for Michigan moving forward
    • Biggest positives for Ohio State
    • What both teams still need to improve
    • Preview of Michigan’s next game
    • Preview of Ohio State’s next game
    • Tim vs Jeremy rivalry arguments, trash talk, and plenty of Michigan–Ohio State hate

    It’s 365 days.

    Michigan. Ohio State. Recruiting. Film breakdowns. Game reactions. Big Ten football. Trash talk. And everything leading up to The Game.

  • Did Ohio State Get TOO Conservative? Michigan’s Self-Inflicted Disaster vs Oklahoma | Hate Week 365 Ep. 2
    Sep 16 2026

    Was Ohio State’s second-half offense against Texas really too conservative — or did the Buckeyes simply stop getting the breaks they had earlier and fail to execute when opportunities were there?

    And for Michigan, how much of the Oklahoma game came down to the Sooners simply being better… and how much was Michigan beating itself?

    In Episode 2 of Hate Week 365, Tim and Jeremy dig into both games and get past the box score.

    We break down:

    • Why Ohio State’s offense looked so different in the second half against Texas

    • Conservative play calling vs missed throws, dropped passes, missed blocks and execution

    • What Ohio State did well despite the offensive criticism

    • The biggest concerns that still need to be fixed

    • Michigan’s costly penalties and negative plays against Oklahoma

    • The offensive drives Michigan killed with its own mistakes

    • Defensive penalties and mistakes that helped Oklahoma extend drives

    • Bryce Underwood’s performance and development

    • What Michigan’s offense needs to clean up immediately

    • What we want to see from both teams in their next games

    • Which problems are legitimate concerns and which ones may be getting overblown

    The next opponents may not provide the same challenge, so this week is less about the final score and more about how Ohio State and Michigan actually play.

    Do the Buckeyes open the offense back up?
    Can Michigan stop sabotaging its own drives?
    And which team has more to fix moving forward?

    Hate Week 365 covers Michigan and Ohio State football all year long — film breakdowns, game reactions, rivalry arguments, predictions, recruiting, the Big Ten and everything that matters between Ann Arbor and Columbus.

    New episodes throughout the season.

    Michigan fans, Ohio State fans — who has you more concerned right now?
