These are usually really good, I do wish they could do big ten too. There's a girl who does big ten (tik tok) but she isn't as good. annie angard I think.

Yes, Annie Agar is very good. I believe she started out on one of the Grand Rapids-area TV stations several years ago (maybe someone can verify this,  I lived in the FCC-protected South Bend coverage area until a couple years ago). She now works for BallySports, according to her Twitter bio.

What you're suggesting, is not an actual youtube channel, not even great content that is compelling. What you actually want is a generic "Big 10" fanbase to be more invested and rabid about their fandom, so that they not only create these types of things, but that there's a huge audience ready to consume it. 

Given the immensely large amount of digital content out there these days that is absolutely trashatolarex, there are only two options.

1. Do it and see and you might be right.

2. There isn't the audience to sustain it.

Guessing you didn't click on the second link?  It's a Youtube channel and the video is even sponsored by Resanant Bank. They get half a million views on average it looks like.

The first one is definitely just "TikTok" style content.

 

Personally, this isn't my style of social content. I think it'd be great if you (everyone but me I guess is the idea here), would make Big Ten related content with adorable pets. And really, I don't care about the other 13 teams in the Big Ten. And honestly, combining Michigan football and cute dogs doing hilarious hijinx may not meld well.  So, revamp the idea.  Someone make sure they're "shooting" Michigan football games every Saturday, and put them up on a distribution network (ESPN etc).  And then also, someone post dogs doing funny shit on social media.  Thanks!

I love SEC shorts.  They are really well done. 

The hard part isn't doing the series, it's doing the series timely (every week), and being topical with what ever happened, and also funny about it. 

That's really hard to do and they manage to pull it off for the most part.  It's not something you can just dabble in off to the side here and there.

This is the Big Ten we're talking about here. With fanbases like the Crying Illini and the Spartans (synonymous with whineass, no nickname needed), they're too busy seething over our success to pay attention to the rest of the teams and create anything of value.

The quintessential "Big Ten Short" would be the other 13 teams crying and eating out of a giant tub of ice cream while posting "Harbaugh to NFL" rumors on the internet.

I don’t know does funny stuff happen in the Big 10 often?

Not as much content there to make fun of, in my opinion. I guess you could make fun of Frost outhitting comments or the MSU/OSU fanbases, but not sure you can do weekly shorts.
