A playoff matchup between Matt Stafford and the Detroit Lions would be the meanest thing to ever happen to that franchise

Matt Stafford going to Detroit Lions first home playoff game. Man, that would be brutal. ... That's not fun for anybody. ... That would be the meanest, meanest thing to happen to the Lions. Like of all the things that would be the meanest thing. I don't want that to happen.

This exact scenario happened in the Wild Card round; Stafford returned to Detroit for the Lions' first home playoff game in decades. The Lions won, so it wasn't 'brutal' in the way Big Cat feared for the outcome, but the matchup prediction was spot on.

Ohio State moved senior night because it is scared of Michigan

If you're saying, 'Hey, we can't do it for the Michigan game because it's something that's just totally different and separate unto itself,' do it the last home game before that, which would be Northwestern. But that senior night though should be—you'd basically just be saying, 'I'm scared of doing it against Michigan.'

This is an interpretation of Ohio State's motivation and cannot be definitively verified.

Wisconsin has to win eight games

He's gotta win eight. I think he would tell you he's gotta win eight. Because if you win seven, that means you probably lost to Penn State, Iowa, USC and UCLA or Minnesota, and it's like some of those are not okay.

Wisconsin's 2026 final record has not yet been determined.
