I just think these guys have to make it a mission to prop up a team like Michigan State mainly because...it is the only school left on Ohio States schedule with any real credibility in terms of top 10 opponents Buckeyes have to face.
BTN seriously would love another Big10 NCAA Championship...ratings...more viewers...premium channel etc etc...
Ohio State vs Michigan State will be an attempt to be billed as "the BIGGEST" game of the year...thus they will always be giving some kind of compliments out...they have to...regardless if DiNardo is all over the place...
IMO...
