Biff Poggi Joins Big Ten Network as a Rotating Studio Analyst

Overview

• The Big Ten announced Wednesday that Poggi will be part of BTN's rotating cast of studio analysts for the 2026 college football season.
• He is scheduled to appear on specific BTN shows including The B1G Show, B1G Today, B1G Countdown to Kickoff, B1G Live: Football Game Break, B1G Live: Football Postgame and The Final Drive.
• Poggi is out of coaching this season after serving as Michigan's associate head coach and stepping in as interim head coach for three games when Sherrone Moore was suspended and later fired.
• His move follows a varied coaching career that included high-school success in Baltimore and a two-year, 6-16 head-coaching stint at Charlotte before returning to Michigan.
• The hire gives Poggi a national platform for his sideline voice and fits a broader trend of recent coaches shifting into broadcast roles, a pattern that networks are expanding this year.
