In this episode we get into the origins of Steve Clarke’s weekly appearance on WTKA, then over to rival fans getting on Dooley’s nerves when they knock Michigan’s historic wins. Last but not least, the boys discuss the athletic department getting rid of physical (paper) football tickets to the chagrin of collectors. Rundown:

  • Steve discusses his weekly ‘Midweek Peek’ hit on WTKA 1050AM, his opponent research, and the danger of momentum and the transfer portal.
  • Dooley takes the bait on a Barstool Sports discussion where they accuse Michigan football of (historically) padding its wins/titles with patsies. This will come up a lot next season as Michigan football approaches 1000 all-time wins. Here’s the full Barstool weak take:
  • Greg and Steve discuss the ticket upgrade process, and Dooley laments the extinction of paper football tickets that many fans still collect! 2023 will be the last year that paper tickets will be available to purchase from the U-M athletic department – ugh! Here’s a look at Dooley’s collection:

Here are the B1G Championship tickets that I created after each game with the confetti:
