Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning

Ohio State defensive coordinator Jim Knowles has turned up the heat on opposing offenses in recent weeks, mixing up looks, and bringing more pressure with some very good results. 

How did the Buckeyes control Northwestern for the final three quarters of their game last weekend, and what will it mean for this weekend's game against the Indiana Hoosiers?

In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning, Ross Fulton, the Xs and Os guru at BuckeyeHuddle.com, joins host Tom Orr to discuss that and more.

The Ohio State Buckeyes will take part in their third top-5 matchup of the season on Saturday when the Indiana Hoosiers come to Columbus. 

Ross Fulton, the Xs and Os guru at BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to discuss what the Buckeyes did on offense at Northwestern last weekend, and what it could mean heading into this weekend's big game.

The last few years have been a tumultuous time in college football history, as the transfer portal, the introduction and growth of NIL, the 12-team college football playoff, and more have brought wave after wave of change to the sport. 

But now, with all of those changes in place, it has been remarkable to see that the sport might be even more exciting and healthy now than it has been in years. 

Tony Gerdeman of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to discuss how the unforeseen impact of those changes may be turning the 2024 college football season into the most exciting and dramatic since 2007.

The Ohio State Buckeyes used a 28-point avalanche around halftime to pull away from Northwestern in a 31-7 win. After that, they used a pounding rushing attack to seal the win. 

OSU ran for 7.8 yards per carry in the 3rd quarter and 6.2 yards per carry in the 4th quarter against what had been a solid Northwestern run defense. So how did they do it, and will they be able to continue that trend against Indiana this weekend?

In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, you'll hear from Ohio State head coach Ryan Day, wide receiver Carnell Tate, and quarterback Will Howard about that and much more.

Ohio State's much-anticipated appearance in Wrigley Field is now in the books, and the Buckeyes handled business in a 31-7 win. 

The Wildcats actually led the game midway through the second quarter, before a 28-point avalanche in about 10 minutes of game time turned to the game from a mild concern into a comfortable Buckeye win. 

Kevin Noon of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to discuss some of their big takeaways from the game, including the atmosphere inside Wrigley Field, the Buckeyes' slow start, Ohio State's dynamic duo of running backs, an incredible homecoming for Carnell Tate, and much more.

The Ohio State Buckeyes are just hours away from landing in Chicago for their highly-anticipated matchup with the Northwestern Wildcats in historic Wrigley Field.

While the iconic ballpark will undoubtedly be a major storyline this weekend, the game is also a crucial one for Ohio State's Big Ten and national championship hopes.

Tony Gerdeman, Kevin Noon, and Tom Orr preview the game and set the scene from Wrigley on this special live episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast.

Since the Buckeyes suffered a one-point loss on the road at No. 1 Oregon, Ohio State defensive coordinator Jim Knowles has been changing things up, mixing in new pressure packages, and new coverages in the secondary to keep opponents off-balance. 

That continued on Saturday against Purdue, as Knowles introduced three-man fronts, including the long-discussed Jack position, as well as some new and creative blitz packages and coverage schemes. 

In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, Ross Fulton, the Xs and Os guru at BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to discuss what was new, and what to expect this weekend against Northwestern in Wrigley Field.

The Ohio State offense put together a solid performance against Purdue, scoring 45 points in a comfortable win. But what was there to learn from the ways Chip Kelly and the Buckeyes continued to develop their scheme?

Ross Fulton, the Xs and Os guru from BuckeyeHuddle.com, joins host Tom Orr to break down six plays from the win over the Boilermakers.

Week two of the College Football Playoff rankings will come out Tuesday night, but after a weekend filled with major upsets, Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr of BuckeyeHuddle.com are taking a look ahead at what it could all mean for the projected field of 12 teams for this year's playoff. 

• Will Georgia fall out of the field entirely after getting stomped by Ole Miss?
• Could Alabama really play a road game at Indiana?
• Is the No. 1 or No. 5 seed a better path to the title?

It feels like it has been a while since the Ohio State special teams unit made a really impactful play, but they did just that on Saturday, blocking a punt to set up the Buckeyes' first touchdown in a 45-0 win over Purdue.

After the game, Ryan Day talked about what they saw on film, what they changed, and how important that play was in getting things moving at the start of the game. 

In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, you'll hear directly from Ryan Day about that, as well as freshman DT Eddrick Houston's first career start, and another record-breaking day from freshman WR phenom Jeremiah Smith.
