Welcome to MGoBlue Podcasts -- the new podcast home of Michigan Athletics. Here at MGoBlue Podcasts, you'll find several recurring series: In the Trenches (an in-depth look at the Wolverines' football program), Defend the Block (interviews, game recaps and more with Michigan men's and women's basketball), and Conqu'ring Heroes (a one-stop show for the latest on every Michigan program). MGoBlue Podcasts are produced by the Michigan Sports Network from LEARFIELD, in partnership with Michigan Athletics.
We begin the episode by discussing the newest developments in the football world, including the next wave of COVID-19 testing at U-M (4:00), the Pac-12's conference game-only schedule (11:30) and a new nickname for Washington's NFL team (14:45). Then, as we celebrate the 40-year anniversary of the 1980 Big Ten and Rose Bowl Championship Team, Jon sits down with fellow offensive lineman great Bubba Paris. Paris puts the 1980 season in similar standing with his three Super Bowl titles (20:50), reflects on his reasoning for picking Michigan over Purdue (26:30), discusses teammates like John Wangler and Anthony Carter (29:45), breaks down the three things necessary for a championship season (37:40), and shares some stories from the big games in 1980 (44:00).
