Ep. 1102: Hot Take Festivus: MSU basketball and football, Lions misery, U-M football, and Santa Rube

from Couch and The Rube · host Graham Couch & Jason Knick

We dug into our takes and yours — on Michigan State basketball's start and concerns that remain, on MSU football's offensive coordinator hire, on the bah humbug Detroit Lions and the offseason ahead, on Michigan football's coaching situation, U-M basketball's fan base, and whether mid-majors belong in the college football playoff. Plus, a few Christmas stories worth telling from listeners and the timeless classic, Santa Rube (at the 1:29:00 mark). Merry Christmas.
