What a buck-eye nation. Welcome to Buckeye Scoot Man. Got a good show plan for you guys today. Our first post-game show of the season. We waited a long time for this day. The Buckeye showed out. Obviously, we got some stuff to dive into. Some stuff people aren't going to be happy with. Some stuff people are going to be happy with. Nothing to do with it. We're going to be happy with it. We're going to be happy with it. We're going to be happy with it. We're going to be happy with it. We're going to be happy with nothing new here in Buckeye land for the first game of the season. The Buckeyes take down Ball State 56 to 3 in a dominant fashion as expected. But you all know what to do before we dive into this. Hit that like button. Hit that subscribe button as well. If you're listening on speaker Apple podcasts give us a like and head on over to the Scoot Message Board. If you're not a part of that stuff's going on over there all day long and super chats they are open. They go to our pay it forward. Help our veterans and our first responders out.

So get those in. We will get those answered. For those of you who do not know how these post game shows kind of work. I'll kind of be the one operating them. But I always shoot B Moses and funky and Nevada. They all have the links. Sometimes they can pop in. Sometimes they can't. Looks like today we almost got a full house. We can get these guys pulled up so we can get this thing going. My dude be Moses and my dude funky. B what's good man. How you doing? You got to you got to. I just got finished mashered my wings. You know how to make sure I had no sauce in my face. But I'm doing all right man. I'm first week lots of things to talk to over react to. Be frustrated with love. Lots of stuff to talk about man so I'm ready. Yeah, I cannot wait to be called a sunshine pumper after today show because we'll see how it goes funky.

What's good man. What's up dad good to be back on the you know the post game shows it's also having Buckeye football back and it's even better when we're coming off a big win. We're you know what you know what they say good teams win great teams cover in the Buckeyes covered today versus ball state. Yeah they did man it was you know the first half that's what I kind of want to dive in here to the first half of this Buckeyes game here obviously the rushing at half time. What was it I got it here we had 325 total yards 290 passing yards with 35 rushing yards 2.1 yards per carry. And a lot of people were really diving into that on X message boards a lot of people upset with that but we held ball states and 92 total yards 55 passing yards and 36 rushing yards at half time. So overall man like Julian saying and this Buckeyes offense in that first half with our wide receivers.

Devon McEwen and JJ Smith even branded in a set times they showed up they showed out and they showed that right that's the best quarterback wide receiver duo in the nation Julian saying and and JJ Smith just kind of seem unfair but we wanted that car and L. So we're going to take replacement and you know we've been saying that person is Devon McEwen it looks like he just proved it to the rest of the nation B Moses your thoughts on that first half of this game. Yeah my guy Devon McEwen man y'all know the story when I was first told about him I looked at the coaches like they had three heads when they told me he thought they thought he was a first round pick back in April. I'm like the kid from you TSA I mean he's fast that we can use them but really now we're seeing like not only is he just fast but he's reliable he has strong hands there was a few catches where he got popped right when the ball arrived and he still squeezed it and and secure the catch he looks like a very good overall receiver so there's that but yes I I stayed off the X at half time I was not on X I knew it was about to be trash.

Yes our online did not play well I was frustrated it was it was not a good performance but you know the folks on X are going to be extra extra stupid so I didn't even see it Dev but yeah tell of two halves for sure I'll stop there because we got a lot to cover. Yeah funky your first initial thoughts of the first half offensive side of the ball band what were your overall thoughts of this game. I'm sure my Smith was unbelievable in the first I want eight catches a hundred fifty yards to touchdowns I thought Julian saying looked you know really good after you know the couple you miss I think you miss one pass on opening drive I mean obviously the only real concern was you know the run game early on. Yeah I kind of want to talk about that obviously everybody in the chat everybody on X they're really handing Philip Daniels you know what I was being told out of campus he was going to be a lot better I'll give it to you in this game he looked rough he had to do it.

In this game he looked rough he had some misdessignments right some miss blocks and stuff like that they even tried switching Austin cerebelled out there the right tackle. He'd with on one as well it just seems like they were trying to find mixes and matches there to make it work the best that they could. You know the running back position bow jackson at first he didn't look you know too decisive but then it's just like well our offensive line really isn't getting the blocks the way that they should but this passing game just kept making us you know not be too concerned with that against ball state but when we get into these bigger matchups Texas next week a lot of people are pointing to that I guys I guess I'm a sunshine bumper I guess I'm crazy but I'm just not tripping quite yet. I'm just not it was the first half the second half we came out we had the long runs the explosive runs and again this coaching staff you know I'm not going to choose to freak out over this game or over one player the coaching staff kept putting Philip Daniels in that position for a reason even though some of the things we saw what we're repeats the last year it is a concern I'm not saying it's not a concern but whatever that whatever the solution is forwarding.

The solution is for that we don't have an option but to trust that this coaching staff is going to make the changes that are necessary if there are any changes that are needed be Moses your thoughts in particular on this offensive line in that first half and anything else you saw. Yeah I mean look you said trust the coaches obviously it was concerning seeing Philip Daniels just just get beaten with and just not be good right I mean it is what it is or I saw what we saw however nobody wants to beat Texas next week more than this coaching staff would you all agree Devon and funky I know funky you're you you ain't got to say nothing but my point is. I'm very confident that they're going to take this film and they're going to figure out what is best for a house date if that's benching Philip Daniels then that's benching Philip Daniels maybe they go with the other lineup that they were debating back and forth about right Padilla and and Saravell maybe I don't know they're going to watch the film and they're going to make a decision so either way I think it's going to be fine because this staff will get it get it together the second half.

Definitely was much better overall from a run game standpoint and listen I see people in a chat talking about lots of people over hyped from fall camp it's too early man it's too early to say that come on guys it's it's week one you got true freshman who you got to remember these are still young young men in front of a hundred thousand and actually in front of millions out there playing a game with all the height all the pressure look at Chris Henry. Look at Chris Henry junior he dropped a couple balls you probably make any other time and Bob will the last one you know me like you have nerves man but these they're going to be fine they're going to be fine is too early to make definitive declarations right now after one game for especially new kids who haven't had a crack at it yet but I'll just say that man they got some work to do on the film but to me overall to four quarter game. I thought how they bounce back in the second half was varying I was pleased the running back stepped up that bow Jackson realm was great I thought that was great so I felt a lot better in the second half although they need to get it together for Texas and I believe they will dev.

Yeah I mean I mean obviously we're going to have to have great off into line play if we want to go on the road in Austin and beat Texas for the third time and you know less than three years it's going to take a heck of an effort from the back eyes on but man I mean we're talking about this game and you look at the final score and what 55 to three then the game pretty yeah you we like to start 700 yards of total. Offense we had 500 yards in the first three quarters and you know we held them to three points and their only points they got were you know 54 yard field goal or the first 54 the first Ohio State kicker hasn't made a 50 plus yard field goal at home in 16 years but ball state comes in here once and you know striped it down the middle or not down the middle but you know he can he made it with not a lot of some some room despair you know but just a testament to how good the defense was and we we're talking about this off season about

you know the linebacker in particular and I thought the linebackers you know really were some of the stars today with you know I look T.J. Alfred made a fantastic play on the interception like all the aggro look good pedagin I made some plays didn't notice a lot of pain pierced today but that's a usually a pretty decent sign for a linebacker and you know obviously I feel like the defense played out of their minds like Jay Timmans was super disruptive you know I didn't I didn't hear a lot about Earl Littles or you know I didn't hear a lot of Earl Littles but you know I'm a safety position that's pretty good didn't hear anything really about Jalen McLean but again safety that's usually a pretty positive sign so I think the defense honestly exceeded my expectations for you know how disciplined they looked week one I thought maybe we would struggle little more on that side of the ball and you know but they didn't get one snap inside our 30 yard line the entire game. And now a quick vital break from our sponsor vital proteins I don't know who out there is an a tennis but it should be all of you because it is awesome and vital proteins who is all about supporting your skin is putting some skin in the tennis game as the official collagen partner of the US open and presenting sponsor of the mixed doubles championship this is their second year of a new multi year partnerships so they're serious about it as we said vital protein test skin in the game.

Which is crazy so they really weren't even close to scoring at all that entire game so I mean they're lucky to put up three so obviously that's a big positive sign because you know Texas even though better offensively it's not like Texas got some high powered offense you know we played you know good discipline footballers Texas and don't make some silly plays while hanging there they won't score more than 20 plus you know so I thought the defense looked way better not way better than expected but definitely better than I expected.

And the offensive line you know obviously needs to step up first Texas especially one deal with all that crown noise. Yeah I mean overall funky you said at 56 to 3 641 total yards of offense 434 those passing 207 of those were rushing yards guys we held them to 165 total yards on then they had 45 rushing yards 120 passing yards but you know you go back and you look at some of these players Julian saying from last year I mean I think he took a huge step I 21 for 25 320 yards 3 total touchdowns first game first half starters are out there no turnovers no big mistakes I mean there was one penalty on James Smith though the horse color tack for 15 yards but offensively the offensive line not a bunch the starters not a bunch of you know miss haps as far as penalties it was a clean game for the starters most like for the most part on both sides of the ball so this first game wasn't astronomical success I know people want to dive into this offensive line and this is where I will get called a sunshine bumper because I'm calling this game an absolute success right we saw the depth of this team we talked about the depth and how we can utilize that throughout the season but Julian saying seem to be in complete control throw and dimes call and we're going to be able to do that.

Call and you know had a lot more control the line of scrimmage like we thought he would you heard him out there can cannon and change in place and you still the Arthur Smith vibe with the play action out there our wide receivers look dominant especially with mcqn stepping up and be I stepped up the way he did you saw the promise some of these young wide receivers you saw both Jackson get it done well let me back up you saw Julian saying get a resting touchdown be yeah I think we you know what I'm saying like that was a prediction I had nailed it I was thrilled but back to these running backs bow jackson at first this offensive line you know I could see people questioning a little bit but he got he got the momentum going I was thrilled to see Jacobi Jackson out there I thought he looked really good that was just me maybe he doesn't have that top end speed that you want but he looked like a hard runner man bouncing off the tackles just getting those yards but legend bay man right to kick off returns but you can see why the coaches keep giving him these opportunities missing a meeting still getting opportunity doing those kick off things still get because he has the potential be the best running back in this room this year the dude is electric and very fun to watch we saw Mason Williams are tied in get the job done as well I'm

wearing to talk about the offensive line so be overall our starters the offensive side of the ball what level it's successful we have this game oh listen I'll be honest with you I rewatch games I have to rewatch this game because I was getting a little pulled on a little distracted family so I didn't get to sit down and fully like lock in lock in so I'm gonna have to rewatch but overall I would say yes there it was a success on offense overall okay how could you say it's not a success overall that's the key word that doesn't mean there wasn't any flaws all lines sticks out but overall absolutely there was some great execution in some spots and real quick I'll say Brandon in his he's a chain mover if we target him he will catch the ball and move the chains okay is he some you know flashy first round talent maybe not but he can help this team so that that's one

for all you in his haters out there he's a solid piece in a good player and then also legend bay that dude man I was joking in the in the texture and I said he has to shake off that goofy Tennessee energy there's still Tennessee residue goofy Tennessee take your shirt off and run out in the cold energy get that off of you legend but he bounced the back man from those two goofy like come on legend what are you doing chill bro I know he's a freshman but come on but he redeemed himself really really well but listen this the last thing I'll say to pass the mic in my mind this is how I think fellas and this is why you don't see me over reacting and getting Twitter fingers and hitting sand on goofy you know over reactive type comments is because it's a four quarter game the first half the O line was not good specifically certain players and my mind dev and funky what I'm thinking

especially as a coach I put myself in the mind of a coach and I am a coach on a certain level how are they going to respond I was asking how is legend going to respond right that's what I want to see what's going to happen and we responded and we saw improvement now you want to see more improvement for Texas but it's a four quarter game and the way the first half ended with the O line was concerning but I think we saw some good things in the second half and totality I think it was a success with some things to clean up especially that O line Devon yeah I agree with you things to clean up but got the job done against this opponent and you saw players like Julian and Bo and you know J J and Devon McEwan you saw that we have the pieces out there to be a dominant offense this year with some things to fix it's the first game of the season right that that's like every single first game of the season there's this same conversation I can go pull

our post game up from the Texas game last year it's the same conversation man it just is funky your thoughts mainly on the offensive side of the ball success not a success what do you grade this offense out for the first game I think the offense gets us you know solid B B plus I mean we looked like we were moving the ball with relatively ease throughout the game you know two sacks in the first half it's you know definitely too many for especially this offense line to give up but you know but when you you have Julian saying on your team and Jeremiah Smith on your team and then we see you know what legend Bay can do when he when he when his hands such the ball no Christian Jr. even though he had some drops you know that he was open for a reason you know someone had to get him open and that was in himself so he looks really good Devin McEun if hopefully I'm pronouncing that right look freaking unbelievable I mean that that guy is that guy's an NFL player plus some like he'll be up you know in the top 100 picks no doubt he looked

yeah fantastic I mean you saw guilt for it out there catching the ball but what no one has talked about yet but then I looked at as like one of the most promising signs this entire day was the wider severs are blocking their butts off Brock Boyd in particular man blocking his ass off and that's just stuff you love to see and stuff that you know you don't always see from wider severs you're you know in general a little bit of a diva position in football but man today they were they putting their head down and blocking and that's why we had so many explosive runs um physically you know bow jacks and jacobie jacks and jacobie jacks and doesn't necessarily you know have wheels like that so for him to you know have that huge rushing touch on that takes you know all 10 people on the team but blocking for him you know the so and they did a fantastic job at that so I give the offense to saw a BB plus no turnovers no really turnover likely plays on offense obviously Brandon fumbled it on a kick return or partner turn but besides for that you know did a really good job at ball control and nothing really scary offensively so that yeah

but overall very good but you know next week at texas we all know what that what what's going to happen that game but you know not what's going to happen but what's that stake and how that game's going to go because I'll tell you right now that's going to be hard to move the ball on the road first then I mean as it is or say any top team in the country yeah but don't but all little off topic but don't look now but boyz state is getting organ yeah you know a run for their money seven nothing late in the first quarter and I think they have the ball too yeah or they just punted with you know yeah me and you know I talked about I did gave five bull takes on the board last night and one of them was that you know boyz state was going to bring organ the deep waters so organ as much as we like to you know complain about our team and as they should we hold all you know high estate to a really high standard I mean look at the other teams around the country and you know compare us to them and Indiana gave up a crop ton of points or do you know at these amount of points of north texas yeah you know in a bad north texas team this is not the same team they had last year and you know organ struggling versus boys and states and you look at you

know Alabama even gave up a touchdown versus you know some you know East Carolina so I mean other teams are you know really struggling and you know the buck eyes handled business and played a ton of kids we had super impactful freshmen all over the field I mean man these freshmen this might be one of the better freshman classes I've ever seen maybe the best freshman class I've ever seen in terms of impact the current wilder like a timid Chris Henry Jr. Guildford Brock Boyd legend Bay and Luke Fahey had massive impacts on this game today for the buck eyes yeah but before we get into the defensive side of the ball y'all know how I love my buck eye clothing right my hats my shirts my all that will be CKR and now a quick vital break from our sponsor vital proteins I don't know who out there is an attenis but it should be all of you because it is awesome and vital proteins who is all about supporting your skin is putting some skin in the tennis game as the official collagen partner of the US open and presenting sponsor of the mixed

but funky you said it man this right freshman class right to me when we talk about the defensive side of the ball that's where I saw this freshman class really stand out right Jay tenmans in there starting nickel position as we told you guys and I'm gonna be honest with you cary wilder on that defensive line he looked like a starter out there he looked like somebody just causing mayhem I mean he was utilized in with the starters on third down plays on the inside and he was tossing them dudes around and he's a freshman I mean he was tossing around cause pressure which caused the interception he was in there doing work but defensively map Patricia right with all these starters we lost we talked about the depth of right the defense this year we saw that this game but we also saw right we need some guys to step up and be those first round talents on the defensive defensive line we saw can yada jackson get so close multiple times that 250 pound quarter

back was hard to bring down that got a little aggravating at times but then again dudes and athletes 250 pounds that the defense got the job done funky said they didn't get inside our 30 yard line the whole game John Walker had some moments where he stood out James Smith did Will Smith Jr. did can yada jackson F.E.C. Tani lay did as well Zion Grady I mean they were they had their moments and as the season goes on we'll see more of these guys getting more of a rhythm as far as who they're playing with but you saw a lot of different combinations today so this defense of line I have a lot of hope with them some still some things to work on some guys need to step up right get some sacks create some pressure keep going with their dawn stop this run and be more sure it's your tackling again one of these first game things that I always that we always talk about tackling right it got talked about last year in the Texas game too we need to be better at tackling first

game of the season right things will get better map Patricia if you know anything about him he's pretty big on fundamentals so when he goes back and watches this film and he sees some of these mistakels oh I promise you I'm practice they're going to get an earful and it will be corrected this is map Patricia and that's what he does so defensive line B your thoughts coming out of this game yeah so again for disclosure I need to go back and rewatch to really dive in but from what I saw at first glance I definitely saw some good things man Walker I mean he he made some plays man he pushed that pocket a few times and disrupted I was very impressed with him and listen to your point about the quarterback that dude is 250 and muscular he's not just fat and slow he's a big boy so two things can be true this is probably going to be the toughest quarterback to tackle and bring now on the entire schedule and you still got to tackle better two things could be true so I would

say the next closest is what who's the hardest quarterback to tackle arch maybe because he's a he's a big kid and he's fast you know don't take more yeah I don't take more I don't think he's as I don't know he doesn't seem as elusive and strong to bring down I don't know but the point is this ball state kid was a tough bring down now with that said he's still got to bring him down but I think I saw some good things on the on the defensive line at first glance I want to see a little bit more pressure especially on third down you know but as again it's the first game and I still need to go back and rewatch and see some things but I saw some things with the D line Jason Moore Jason Moore got an air made at play that was his first play that he's like he's made like for real for real so I'm like okay you want to see that depth step up and get confident and so I liked what I saw at first glance yeah funkier thoughts on this defensive line and then

we'll get to the other the rest of the defense here I mean to me they looked I mean I just ruptured as I've seen you know any Ohio State defensive line the last couple years I mean James Smith got to the quarterback early you know you kind of got to buy the horse collar but still is very you know very disruptive I mean I think I saw Pete no pedagon down there Kendiada almost got to the quarterback a few times but it felt like the pressure was there and we were we were hitting this guy I mean pretty physically hard and I didn't feel like you know he had all day to throw I mean there's a reason why you know they had such trouble moving the ball and they were the head to go down to you know the classic play action check downs they check down a lot to the wide receivers um but I thought the defensive backs also did a fantastic job in coverage so overall I great yeah I grade the defense very high I think Devin Sanchez showed a lot of improvement from his freshman year I know it's just ball state but even I mean last year uh you know David was you know struggling early even versus some lesser teams but but today man he looked he looked good he looked like a kid who you know took all off season and learned a lot

and he made a really nice play on that like third and medium rub row early on and you know germane looked good uh J Timins looked just freaking amazing but yeah overall the defensive line looked very impactful led by you know carry wilder Kendiada Jackson and them guys and now a quick vital break from our sponsor vital proteins I don't know who out there is an attenis but it should be all of you because it is awesome and vital proteins who is all about supporting your skin is putting some skin in the tennis game as the official collagen partner of the us open and presenting sponsor of the mixed doubles championship this is their second year of a new multi year partnerships so they're serious about it as we said vital proteins has skin in the game the players obviously do and now you do too at this year's us open vital proteins is upping the ante during one of the tournaments most thrilling moments the final set tie break which is like overtime in tennis if a main draw singles match reaches a final set tie break beginning

defensive lineman making plays from Zion Grady to Epi to John Walker Will Smith Jr so listen the depth is there and as the season goes along they'll get more comfortable playing with each other but be listen to me maybe I had my eyes on him a little you know a lot this game and that's why but the position group that I got most excited about and it wasn't even with our starters was watching TJ Alfred and Riley Petty John runner round out there bro yes like yes like I was just about to mention Alfred man I was pumped when he made that interception that was cool like that was that was great Alfred was everywhere dude he was all over the place and Riley was too Riley seemed to be in the right spot at the right times and you just see their athleticism man I you know I mean Christian Ali agro the announcers gave him some credit for some things that you know I just didn't see him pop too much but again that first game whatever same with Peyton Pierce I saw him make some good plays as well but to me TJ and Riley just look different out there man they just do and that was me maybe

that's my scarlet glasses on or my fan to my half for those two but TJ and Riley seem to be just a little bit different at that position than the other two which is a good thing for this team it's versatility right depending on who we're going against and whatnot it allows us to play different packages and that's the other thing we're talking about the defense and it's not like we saw a bunch of exotic looks from Matt Patricia that we know he has right we didn't we saw it less time you know not good at seeing these things I didn't see a lot of you know exotic things Matt Patricia was trying to you know throwing here I saw a lot of base things maybe some different third down personnel but that's it and in this second area as well funky hit on it but Jay Timman's had his hands on the ball a couple different times I believe Devin Sanchez as well that first play Devin Devin Sanchez they caught a ball on him and I was like dude he was right in position just a good pass good ball that happens with defensive backs but DUDE came back had a great game germane Matthews had some great tackles as well some great great coverage opportunities so

again Jaylen McLean I saw Lee Roy Roker in there just so I saw so many different players on this defense and again they had to kick a 54 yard field goal and I don't care if it was just ball state you saw Indiana give up like 16 points to North Texas you like you see in around the country first game right some of these defenses are struggling when you lose this much NFL talent the way that Matt Patricia did and you come into this game and you utilize so many different players and you put together right would they have again a total of 100 and I don't even know 100 and 65 yards that's a success to me I mean I think that's a success and I saw you see we got some stars on this defense man and I think TJ and Riley Jay Timmons Devin Sanchez Jaylen McLean I think these guys are gonna be able to hold this defense as a top five defensive unit in the in the country this defensive line's gonna come together I just got excited watching these young guys

and all these all the rotation we got going on in this game you know these coaching staff they got a lot of film to go look at now some corrections to be had but a lot of good things fundamentally on the defensive side of the ball and I think a good foundation to go to build the rest of the season on especially 51 new faces on the entire team I feel like this was a success on the defensive side of the ball no doubt yeah no I agree I was just looking at the stats again as well and I was just laughing to myself like if you were to show if someone didn't see the game but they saw the stats they would probably never know that we struggled you know and in the online area because look both Jackson average 9.2 yards per carry and Jacobi Jackson 10.4 yeah obviously we saw them the team what average 2.1 yards per carry a half so we know that but that's why it's a four quarter game now

look I'm watching this organ game still and on the TV and they have zero points in the second quarter at home now boysy state is not a terrible program but they're not ranked either and this is a top five organ team I mean I just keep thinking like listen it's okay to critique and say I'm concerned about things but man like I really really truly believe that this staff is going to get in there and fix what needs to be fixed I also believe that this team will be ready to play at a higher level higher clip on the road at Texas I just do we how many times have we seen this y'all where we see and you say playing down the competition I mean I don't really know if it's that per se it's the first game jitters newness like Dev said 51 new faces I mean listen I'm really glad this year we had this

game to really put this out in the field make some plays make some mistakes and get ready for week two and so I'm just saying I get it things to fix but man the perspective of comparing the rest of the country and then also just understanding that you know we got some good talent they're going to get better I'm pumped for this Texas game because we're going to see some improvement and some higher execution in my opinion yeah absolutely funky um you've said it a couple times now but give us your you know defensive side of the ball linebacker um secondary thoughts you have on this team um and kind of wrap this thing up give us your overall feel this first game yeah I mean just overall there I'm I'm very excited because this team oh this why I say team looks as talented and as good as you know any Ohio State team in the last couple here a couple of years year where you know we've been performing you know at a top three let's side of the ball on both sides of the ball and you know all these first round talents and all these NFL guys and we've

had like what 27 people make NFL Rossers from the last two years from this the last year Ohio State teams um so overall super happy because you you you you hear a lot about people during camp but just seeing when the team goes out there and executes at a high level and you know really shows you know who they are and how good we can be this year and you know shows us that we can compete at a national title away for you know the 15th year in a row or whatever the year in a row it is now for how good we've been for you know pretty much my entire life was overall really good but you know the depth the freshman and Julian St and Jeremiah Smith were you know this what made me excited today because when you have you know the young kid one young guy step up and then you know your veterans step up that that can create a very very special team down the road and you know obviously week two verse Texas is going to be a heck of a heck of a game you know and we we we truly have a you know great chance to lose the game but also great chance to win the game so we'll see what

happens but I can guarantee you it's going to be a close and it's going to be a great game and you know you know being a team three times in three years is insanely hard especially a team like Texas so if we can get out of that with a win man that would be insane but yeah we'll see what the boys do next week in Austin you know we'll we'll be we'll be slight underdogs that game we'll probably be at you know minus two and a half trading out about like play 45% on CalShi so it should be very interesting you know funky speaking of CalShi man my prediction for this week man is for LSU to beat Clemson you see the market has them trading at 77% right now personally for LSU obviously the influx of talent they brought in the money they're spending on this team I mean go over to Cloud CalShi right now get LSU on this drop right here if you want to make your own college football predictions this season check out the CalShi using my link in the description and pinned in the

comment my code is already in that link you trade $20 you you receive $20 so it's a good one it's one of the big games on for tonight so CalShi great place to go I use them all the time for bets like this so go get LSU trading at 77% right now the link is in the description of the video as well in the comments over there one last thing before we get out of here gentlemen um a lot of people want to make a big deal Luke Fahey was obviously the second string quarterback this time we alluded to that coming into this game we're talking about second and third string quarterbacks right now that's the future of this program a lot can change from now until until then but I thought Luke looked real comfortable out there and I thought Tavian had some really good plays as well so based off of their play in today's game I can't differentiate which one I would rather have out there but that's that's just my honest take I mean Luke looked a little more comfortable in it but

Tavian Singh clear made some plays as well with his athleticism and his traits that he has so coaching staff will get that figured out again I think it's a good thing for this team to have write those options available the way we do not many teams in the country have a you know three star quarterbacks fighting to take five stars out that's a good sign for Ohio State in our backup quarterback position any final thoughts on that be your funky yeah yeah yeah I was looking at that looking at the chat and I agree man I agree it was it was pretty you could tell why there's been a back-and-forth competition I mean they look pretty even pretty equal even statistically they were you know so I mean I got to put up right now yeah so Tavian had 52 yards with a TD Luke Feh he had 62 yards with a TD and they both had one in completion so they were almost identical I don't know how many snaps they had versus one another but both look solid man I mean Tavian looked good

he made some plays like you said so you know it's it's a good problem to have you got two solid options for backups pushing each other and so you know we may need to step in for a player to or even longer you never know it's college football but one other one thing I wanted to say quickly I was trying to work it in earlier is that Jeremiah Smith looks even better like he looks even better like he looks like a pro like how can I put it he looks even more polished than he did last year like is anybody else seeing that like he jumps off the screen like man he's good like he he's gotten better I don't know how to explain it that sounds dumb but you can see it right Devon like catch you see it on the screen like his routes his his ball catching I mean hit the smoothness his IQ he just looks so much more confident and in control nobody's talking about that really because he's so good but I saw it it was very noticeable and that's all I'll say about that

yeah and I act like sorry sorry sorry one last thoughts from me Luke Bayhye Fahye oh sorry I'm mispronouncing that probably again the man he looked like a stud out there and he looked like a real Ohio State level quarterback out there and he he looked like he was processing at a high level you know his accuracy looked good his mobility in the pocket looked good the offense just looked calm out there and I have to give credit to Ryan Day and this coaching staff for you know figuring out this three star from you know one of the highest levels of competition or it is the highest level of competition high school competition in the nation and probably similar to you know some high level FCS low level FBS competition in high school in Southern section division one slash open division um but yeah I mean he looked fantastic and then I literally looked comfortable in the pocket and I thought you know him being the second quarterback on the field was telling and as we talked about in the offseason we thought Luke won that quarterback to position late in the fall and you know it serves seems like that's the truth right there and it seems like

Luke is probably our second best option at quarterback you know over you know five star number two number three player in the country Tavine St. Clair and you just have to think about it you know has to be probably be about the difference of high school level competition and how that makes a player ready to play in college football early because Luke didn't he pretty much just got on campus well so credit to the coaching staff for making that development and you know obviously that's going to push Tavine just to be of that much better and it's going to you know create for a you know a great quarterback competition between you know maybe them two maybe a portal kid you know it's something to look forward to in the future yeah absolutely going to be an interesting battle to keep an eye on the rest of the year and see how the thing plays out but again like like we said earlier it's good for the highest state program and have players pushing other players couple super chats here $1.99 bench Daniels and move Austin to tackle they did move Austin to tackle he whiffed immediately it happens in the first game man it happens I understand Daniels is is taking the brunt of a lot of stuff here rightfully so for a lot of things he did wrong in this game but uh

you know I I'm seeing that we got a lot of good games going on but uh you know first game the season the coaching staff kept putting him for a reason yet it's got a trust Arthur Smith this coaching staff the good thing is we got a lot of depth on this offensive line so if Daniels isn't the answer I believe the answer is on this roster right to make this offensive line the best but I'm not man by no way shape or form am I um you know wanting Daniels benched right now for anything if he comes out in the first half of Texas and and does this then you might hear me say something different but that's I might take fellas any thoughts on that yeah I'll be quick man it's it's tough because there's the balance of coaching a guy through something and just having a quick trigger finger right I mean they put all this time and work in he earned the start through fall camp and now he just didn't have a great day what do you do as a coaching staff do you uh hold on

did they just score did they just score they did wow so I missed the first play okay they're about to show the replay now listen we're watching this game okay they're showing it right now just a simple screen wow the organ ducks man how do you think their fans are filling right now wait man I'm so far behind I literally just saw organ score their touchdown well you are super yeah what the hey yeah you are well I was confused like why are we celebrating an organ touchdown here guys and I'm telling like but wow but yeah I mean yeah but you know as you're saying be continued sorry no I'll just wrap up but no that's that's listen but again boys he stayed beating number two organ at organ 14 to seven now four quarters they you know organs still may win this game and now a quick vital break from our sponsor vital proteins I don't know who out there is an a tennis but it should be all of you because it is awesome and vital proteins who is all about

he trots out there I'm going to trust that they're doing the right thing and like Dev said man if he if he still screws up get him out of there that's all you can do you know so yeah go ahead yeah let's uh koolest things for the $10 man Fahey is a dude I think Wilder should be DE1 over bow we need to clean up the penalties and start the game a little bit better but I'm happy yeah Fahey looked real good out there and dude it's hard to you know first game against ball state car wilder there he did he looked dominant out there bro ever snappy god he did so it's hard to argue that it is but the coaching staff sees these guys every day so I'm going to defer back to them to make those type of decisions but yeah first game there's obviously stuff to clean up but a really good foundation to go on here Toledo Geo thanks for the $2 legend building the legend those oh H are you no boss on Fahey or Wilder or legend Bay gentleman that we haven't already said

no that's it I won't belabor the point for the sake of time you know legends gonna be great wilder's gonna be great they both pop today yeah just gotta keep legend and just legend listen to your captains and coaches please that that's my one cry do that and you'll have you'll you'll probably win multiple hysmans here at Ohio State bro like seriously yeah the world the world is your oyster my friend just listen uh steely thanks for the $9.671 yards of offense held them to 165 yards on defense wow buck i nation yeah just look at those numbers guys I think we're pretty good clueless thanks for the $5 new nickname for bow jackson go go bow yeah took them a minute to get going I could see how people were kind of getting on him a little bit like well you know the first his first run didn't go for a hundred yard touchdowns so obviously people are gonna say he's not very good but right offensive line had their struggles I think we got a running back in bow jackson but legend bay though legend bay it's just hard to it's hard to ignore that

man but again bow and jacobie both got your job done any thoughts today are gentlemen yeah yeah real quick I think I saw the comments about uh legend bay might be the the answer for running back over the other two I'm not going to overreact to that I don't agree with that yet um let's let's slow down guys and in my opinion but I gotta go back and we watched the game but to me maybe bow jackson was a little hesitant sometimes maybe but it was also 13 guys in the backfield almost half the time in the first half when when he was handed the ball so it like it's kind of hard to fully judge bow jackson when there was really not much running room most of the time you got anything funky no you're I mean you're right I don't think legends the answer at running back yet uh clearly he's probably the best running back with the ball in his hands but as we all know running back a lot more than just having the ball in your hands um but yeah I mean it'll be interesting it will be interesting because legend is clearly the best running back when the balls

in his hands so when you're when you're that dangerous you're gonna have to touch the ball and legend has to touch the ball a ton you know but he the kid also you know has to be able to block past protect and do all that other stuff that you know maybe like to Kobe Jackson or bow jackson or Isaiah West you know have another year full of experience of doing it you know legend played high school quarterback so I'm I don't know this for fact but I get you know almost guarantee you that his past protection is subpar for Ohio States wanting exactly yeah glueless thanks for the five dollars brother let's calm down Daniels will be okay he needs to keep his feet moving and and not stop his feet and he will be better clearly as I couldn't agree with you anymore but now it uh no way two dollars said Philip Daniels this week it should be replaced so you got two sides of the fan base here I'm on the side I'm not tripping or ever acting about Philip Daniels for those that watch the end of last season and we're on that that train of our offensive lions our weakest

blankets our weakest length and then they see this here yeah I understand your mindset and wow let's change some things up right away I was not on that bandwagon I still don't agree with it I think this offensive line is gonna wind up being one of the stronger units on the on his team but this game does not prove that point so right I look like I'm wrong right now but we will see when it matters against Texas something to playoffs in these bigger games we'll see we'll see if Arthur Smith Ryan Daniels coaching staff can bring this unit together and be what I think they can be and that's one of the best offensive line rooms in the country but right they didn't give me a leg to stand on and say much about them today so if you're having questions about the offensive line I can't tell you you're wrong yet but I trust this coaching staff right to make these decisions fellas final thoughts anything on this again yeah yeah yeah I'll just I said it earlier with the coaches

you got to put your mind you got to put yourself in the shoes of the coaches is it a quick trigger figure or do you help coach the young man you've been coaching all fall who earned his starting spot to to to get through it I don't I don't know listen no way I'm not mad at you for say a field fill up down just leading to be replaced I get the frustration he was very frustrating today but it's up to the coaches not to us I'm sure they're going to do whatever makes the most sense for the team and we'll see I just I know that sounds whatever but it's the truth it's the truth man so that's it for that funky yeah I mean I just it's hard to um make the calls on that personally and I trust day and the staff to make the calls on this but I do think um you know if the offense line continues to struggle like this we will have to start questioning you know the Tyler Bowen higher and Phil Daniels but Phil Daniels last year looked so great verse Texas so I have to

believe that he's gonna go in this game with the confidence and the readiness to you know dominate just like you did last year verse you know you know the toughest or the second toughest defensive line in the nation uh that you know that Texas has and probably the best past rush for the nation and Colin Simmons who's gonna go head the head with Phil Daniels so and remember Colin Simmons all the trash he talked last year and you know Philip how well he did verse Colin so that's the storyline the most important storyline I'm following this week um and obviously you know Philip knows and he has to be better um so just up to the staff and Philip to show up at Texas Saturday nights with a loud crowd noise and play better than he did verse ball state at home so uh is it a hard task absolutely oh can you do it yes and he's done it before so I just got to trust the staff to make that call and you know I try not to worry about the little stuff like that because Ryan Day has been pretty dang good at the little stuff his in his tenure here yeah dev fellas this is going to be this is going to be the debate all week go ahead bro this this Phil Daniels stuff is

going to be the hot ticket go ahead bro oh it oh it is still a dollar on the on welcome to over reaction Saturday afternoon yes Dealey like I said listen guys whether you're a replace Philip Daniels fan or you're let the coaches do the coaches do fan the one thing that we both have in common there is we both want those things why because we want Ohio State to be better okay so it doesn't have to turn into a you're wrong I'm right you're an idiot you're you know you're not whatever it is but we'll see I am going to let this coaching staff do out all the spring and all the fall can't Philip Daniels beat everybody else on the team that look like that was the best unit to put on the thing and one game against ball state it doesn't look like that they got a lot more right things showing that that is the correct unit to put on the field then they do this one half against ball state that's just my mindset right some people are going to say Philip Daniel

struggled the last two games of the season but he didn't in Texas he shut Colin Simmons down a first round draft pick so you know I'm saying so you go back and forth all day with this coaches will get it figured out I'm not on the bandwagon of let's replace an offensive lineman already fellas any final thoughts so we can go watch this organ game we can watch LSU Clemson tonight get on CalShi and get your bet to get your predictions placed and we can watch Michigan lose to Western Michigan tonight be rough row organ rough row my boys you say it's got the ball again about it you know could go up two scores with you know they get a first down but you know it just makes me happy to be able to have a state fan because we don't ever deal like these games like that or at least I mean not ever but you guys know what I'm talking about in the last like 15 years we haven't really had many games like this at all less than we had in the urban in my area era under Ryan Day so it's pretty pretty I'm pretty grateful for it especially after watching this

game I came in and imagine being an organ fan right now I'd be you know losing my you know losing my stuff right now because you know this team they look bad they look trash I'd say I mean but this is how they looked when they almost lost to Idaho two years ago yeah but undefeated team so this is not the first time where they've looked this bad week one I think they almost lost to did they play Boise State the beginning of last year or is that the year before they almost almost they had to win at the very last second or something crazy like that but how did you got final thoughts no I thought fucks you I'll say something else no I just I'm just laughing at the chat I'm laughing at our fan base I'm laughing at college football we're back baby it is what it is man we do this every year we do overreact listen I'm not saying having a concern is overreacting I'm saying making a definitive declarative statement about that concern after one game is overreacting I mean we'll see man listen we all want to beat Texas Ryan Day wants to go on a road in

beat Texas he's not going to have somebody start who he believes it's not going to give him the best shot to beat Texas so we'll see maybe Daniels will get benched maybe he will but if he doesn't it's not because the coaches don't care or they didn't do their due diligence and watch film and you to see who was better right he started this game because he earned it is he going to correct these issues by next week that's the million dollar question we'll see but I'm not going to worry about what the coach is going to do because they're going to do what's best for the program I have they have my trust now Ryan Day has my trust in that so we'll see but this is going to be the this is going to be the topic all week Philip Daniels all week all week get ready for baby I know I hopefully uh well again I don't even need to say it but I wanted to say dude we all root for the same team everybody gets been out of shape if you say something it's like we were a high state fans like like we don't need to you know hate each other because I want to fill up Daniels and you don't it's just like god come on man first game of the season the book is
