Scarlet and Maize

Scarlet and Maize Season 3 // Football 2023, Episode1

College football is back, baby! And so are we!

We answer a ton of questions, discuss a bunch of hypotheticals, pick EVERY GAME that EVERY TEAM in the Big Ten plays this season, pick our Big Ten Champion, Heisman winner, AND MORE!

Then we wrap up with a couple Things No One is Talking About and our Tweets of the Week!

Football Finale, Shift to Basketball // Episode 19

RIP Football 2022. On to new year things like a renewed focus on basketball, Jim Harbaugh rumors, and more Tweets of the Week!

Pain and Pain // Football 2022, Episode 18

Well that sucked for both of us.

Football Final Four Preview // Football 2022, Episode 17

Previewing Michigan-TCU and Ohio State-Georgia. Then our Things Nobody is Talking About and Tweets of the Week!

A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood // Football 2022, Episode 16

Michigan repeats as Big Ten Champion with a 43-22 win over Purdue in a game that looked a lot like Michigan games this year -- a low scoring first half giving way to an eventual blowout fueled by suffocating defensive adjustments and big runs. Ohio State is able to keep their dream of a rematch with Michigan and a potential National Championship alive as Utah beat USC again, this time in their own blowout.

Is the blowout against Utah enough to keep the Heisman from Caleb Williams? Adam and Zack agree on their thoughts on Williams as well as on Stetson Bennett possibly being the worst Heisman finalist of all-time. Is Adam okay with Blake Corum not making it to New York after giving MSU fans crap occasionally over their unsuccessful pushing of Kenneth Walker as a Heisman finalist? Then on to the Rapid Fire Turd Pile Big Ten Bowl Game Predictions and a couple of thoughts to wrap up the 2022 regular season of college football. 

Moving back into basketball, Ohio State lost a close game on the road to Duke while Michigan lost two close games, against Virginia and Kentucky. Both Ohio State and Michigan play a struggling North Carolina team in a couple of weeks, as well as a Big Ten game and a buy game.

Wrapping up the episode are some Things No One is Talking About and our Tweets of the Week. See ya next time!

The Revenant // Football 2022, Episode 15

Michigan beat Ohio State 45-23 in Columbus but Adam kicks things off by bringing us back to Michigan's terrible season during the Covid year in 2020? Weird. As expected, though, he talks for a while about The Game 2022, and a little bit about The Game 2021. But did Ohio State lose because Zack didn't wear his lucky undies? Take a listen and find out what he thinks!

The winner of the Picks Standings won by 0.7% but they'll take it! We get into a pile of Viewer Questions about the Playoff, Ohio State, Ryan Day's future, CJ Stroud's postgame comment that OSU won't be defined by just this game, and more.

Then we have a Big Ten Takeaway, and Adam has a brief Big Ten Championship preview that catches Zack off guard before we momentarily move to basketball.

We wrap things up with something No One is Talking About and a few Tweets of the Week!

This Is It // Football 2022, Episode 14

We talk about last week's closer-than-expected games but only because we want to get to The Game.

Then we talk about the Scarlet and Maize Picks Standings, answer a couple of Viewer Questions, and talk about our Big Ten Takeaways but only because we want to get to The Game.

On to the Rapid Fire Turd Pile Picks, where we predict every Big Ten game except The Game, because we want to get to The Game. This show only exists for us to talk about The Game.

Then we wrap up with Things No One is Talking About and Tweets of the Week.

Waiting // Football 2022, Episode 13

Adam and Zack are both just ready for The Game and want to skip this week to get there. But first, they have to recap this past week's games and talk about the last matchups for Michigan and Ohio State before the greatest rivalry in all of sports takes place in Columbus between the Wolverines and the Buckeyes.

Then we talk Big Ten Takeaways into the Rapid Fire Turd Pile Picks, varsity games, and Game of the Week between USC and UCLA. From there we answer a viewer question about briefly talk hoops, some Things No One is Talking About, and our Tweets of the Week!

Tombstone // Football 2022, Episode 12

The Big Ten West -- it was mostly super gross & terrible except for some punts. RIP.

OSU sneaks by Northwestern and Michigan starts slow against Rutgers but let's just focus on the nonsense that is the Big Ten West. Awful. Plus a little bit of basketball talk and one more shot towards MSU's amazingly great culture by Adam because of tiny Tom Izzo's giant mouth.

A History of Violence // Football 2022, Episode 11

Beating someone with a football helmet for, worst case, talking trash, is never admirable regardless of what the MSU beat and fanbase says. Moving on, Blake Corum is good and MSU is not. Penn State gave Ohio State a little scare but ended up losing comfortably. 

Our Big Ten Takeaways feature Illinois and Michigan State, who play this week, before we transition smoothly into the Rapid Fire Turd Pile Picks. Then we discuss Ohio State's game against Northwestern and Michigan's game against Rutgers, and our Game of the Week: Tennessee at Georgia.

We wrap up with some Things No One is Talking About and our Tweets of the Week!
