Ohio State's defense is allowing the second-fewest points per game in the country. Could the Buckeyes have the best defense in the country? And beyond that, could the OSU defense be the best unit in college football on either side of the ball? On this episode of The Bill and Doug Show, Doug Lesmerises dives into the numbers in an attempt to answer that question. He also compares the Ohio State defense to another defense that made a coordinator change and is having huge issues so far this season -- Notre Dame. Thanks for joining The Bill and Doug Show, and sorry for the mic issue on this episode. It'll be fixed for next time.
