Good morning! You probably know the drill here.
But if you're new: Hello! Welcome! What poor choices have you made to end up here?
You have found yourself at the only Midwestern-centric, Big Ten-focused college pregame show with no budget, no audio, no video, and no asshat former West Virginia punters.
Let's rip through the OTR posts that you might have missed from earlier this week. Grab another pour of coffee and get the sweet potato hash ingredients into the pan. It's Saturday. It's time for football.
Oh! And if you want an OTR sticker for F-R-E-E-E, please send your mailing address to alma.otter91@gmail.com. Dog not included.
