COLUMBUS — Lots of Ohio State football talk on this big Wednesday show. But first, a warning.
The show goes silent for 18 seconds from 2:14 to 2:14:18. The power at Bill’s house went out in the middle of recording. We can edit the raw video, but we have found that when we do, the file becomes much more difficult to upload. Not wanting to risk that, we decided to keep the show as is. So power through those 18 seconds, because we will be back!
As for what we discussed, well, what didn’t we discuss? The focus is our idea that Ohio State should start behaving less like an NFL team. We get to that eventually. Included in that discussion are ideas about roster building, both in recruiting and the portal. But the best thing is Bill’s list of offensive and defensive coordinator candidates from the college ranks, because we think the Buckeyes should shift away from Matt Patricia and Arthur Smith and toward up-and-coming college play callers.
Before that, the discussion points include:
• Ohio State’s place in Tuesday night’s playoff rankings
• Whether the Buckeyes should have played Texas this season
• Big Ten tiebreakers and how the Buckeyes could still make the Big Ten Championship Game, and then, with a win, the playoff
• Survey results from nearly 700 subscriber voters on feelings about the team
• Joel Klatt’s comments about Jeremiah Smith looking like he didn’t run some of his routes at full speed.
Then, after the blip, Whatcha includes Bill’s griddle dreams, great drive-through salads, a rising announcer, Matthew Perry, saving Wawa and more.
