University of Cincinnati Bearcats football does not tangle with the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the Kansas City Classic for just over a month, but the men from Lincoln are at Big Ten media days this week.

Iowa Hawkeyes football's Kirk Ferentz, Koen Entringer, Logan Jones and Ethan Hurkett will appear on July 24 at Big Ten Media Days in Las Vegas.

The 2025 season has unofficially kicked off. Rutgers previewed the upcoming campaign at Big Ten Media Day on Tuesday, with head coach Greg Schiano and veterans Athan Kaliakmanis, Ian Strong and Dariel Djabome taking the podium to discuss where the Scarlet Knights stand entering training camp next week.

Curt Cignetti opened Big Ten Media Days with a fun-filled shot at the SEC's scheduling philosophy, which accurately captured the overarching message from commissioner Tony Petitti and Big Ten coaches.

After a surprising 10-0 start, a program-record 11 wins and a trip to the College Football Playoff, some believe Indiana is destined to take a step backward in 2025.

The 6-foot-3, 302-pound graduate student center has anchored the Iowa offensive line for three years and was named first-team All-Big Ten by the media last season. Jones has also been named a preseason first-team All-Big Ten player by Athlon Sports and Phil Steele this offseason.

Forget playoff resumes and strength of schedule. Here’s a simple way to compare the SEC and Big Ten: have them play one another.

The Big Ten’s Tony Petitti and the ACC’s Jim Phillips indicated Tuesday that expansion of the major postseason events might be delayed.
