2:00 Spiels has Danny Dimes on Sunday

4:00 -- Heisman odds are out. Where is Justin Fields?

5:00 -- Bruce gives some personal insight on what Justin Fields is like as an interview subject

5:30 -- Bruce asks Fields about his comments regarding Columbus and being a student, which show what kind of commitment an elite college football player must make.

8:00 -- Spiels understands why Fields does what he does the way he does, and would have done the same during his career.

9:00 -- How much of a bump does Nebraska get from playing at home?

11:00 -- OSU is blessed with a deep wide receiving corp. How does WR coach Brian Hartline keep them all happy?

13:00 -- What Terry McLaurin's start with the Washington Redskins means to the current OSU wide receivers

14:00 -- Austin Mack makes a candid admission

16:00 -- The benefit of playing at OSU, no matter what the numbers say.

17:00 -- Browns play at Baltimore, where they'll run into John Harbaugh. His OC is a guy Jim Harbaugh could use at Michigan, and oddly enough, Baltimore is winning by rushing, which isn't exactly the NFL way (nor is it Michigan's way these days).

19:00 -- Somebody on this podcast really likes Lamar Jackson and somebody else does not.

20:00 -- Ohio State has a new dimension to its offense, and it's not because of Justin Fields. It's because of a position you wouldn't expect.

22:00 -- Why aren't the Browns matching their offensive success of last season so far this season?

23:00 -- He's not great and he's not horrible. And that's the problem with Andy Dalton, who fits the description of a legendary NFL writer.

25:00 -- Monday Night Football features Bengals and Steelers

25:30 -- Shoutout to WestJeffPlumbingandHeating.com....get $500 off a new furnace. Don't waste all day waiting on your plumber, or heating and cooling contractor. West Jefferson Plumbing and Heating will show up on time and take care of whatever you need. NOW is the time for a fall furnace check so you'll have heat when the weather turns cold.

27:00 -- Spiels shares from Romans 8:38-39, which coincidentally happens to be the verse pinned to Bruce's Twitter timeline. It shows that, though you may not always feel it, you are assured you are worthy of God's love and that you are forgiven, if you have claimed Christ's sacrifice at the cross to cover your sin. You are MORE THAN A CONQUEROR!

30:00 -- Bruce gives a tip on an easy way to start a spiritual conversation off something people throw out in casual conversation.

31:00 -- You'd be surprised at the resumes of some of the greatest saints ever. Remember, God doesn't call the equipped; he equips the called.

The significance of Saturday for OSU-Michigan, Ryan Day-Harbaugh

Freddie Kitchens and Baker Mayfield explain what went wrong for Browns.

Michigan embarrasses Charles Woodson and probable Gerald Ford, too, in 35-14 loss at Wisconsin

Why that's significant in light of Justin Fields' superb second quarter against Miami of Ohio

You think beating Miami is no big deal, but consider the levels of what it says about Ryan Day and his coaching ability, relative to Harbaugh

The future is therefore extremely bright for OSU.

As for Michigan, well...

We welcome Angelique Chengalis for the crowning achievement of her career...the first-ever guest spot on the Spielman & Hooley podcast.

What is up with Harbaugh and the Wolverines as they head to Wisconsin for a must-win game on Saturday.

Are Michigan's former players still believers?

Will Harbaugh go back to the NFL if he can't beat Ohio State this year. Next year?

About half the schools in the Big Ten have the perfect coach for their program right now.

Be careful you Big Ten wannbes about wanting to get to the next level.

Georgia vs. Notre Dame. Who do you want to win?

A feline friend visits the podcast...but at least the chickens aren't celebrating.

USC plays at home on Friday night and Urban will be there with Fox. Will that give him the itch to coach the Trojans?

Spiels says there are 3 places where he could see Urban coaching again. If he coaches again.

Bruce talks about who and what he sees when he looks around the Woody Hayes Athletic Center (where allowed).

Spiels elevates UCLA to where it hasn't been in a long, long time.

Hey, the Pacific 12 reminds us of the Big Ten way back when.

An explanation for why the show had to be recorded on the back deck today. Check out the video on the "SpielmanandHooley" page on Youtube.

No, really, Spiels. That means the cat likes you.

Emailer wants to know why OSU should play Chase Young against Miami of Ohio

Spiels had a look at Nick Bosa on Sunday. What did he think of the former Buckeye?

Spiels has Lions at Philly on Sunday.

Rams travel to Cleveland for Sunday Night Football. If the Browns want to win 10 games this season, starting 0-2 at home is not a good idea.

Who does Cleveland have to stop to win? Hint, it's not Todd Gurley or Jared Goff.

Our recommendation on how to start your day. We do it, and it works for us.

A thorough beating of Indiana gives Spielman and Hooley cause to consider the last time they felt this good about an Ohio State team's dominance this early in the season.

Bruce thinks Ryan Day is the perfect coach at the perfect time for this team. "There's a fresh breeze blowing through the Woody Hayes Athletic Center."

Spiels is not too sure about that, but he's sure no one in the Big Ten can match the Buckeyes' depth and speed.
