The Buck Off Podcast: An Ohio State and College Football Podcast with Christopher Renne

Ohio State plays Saturday for the first time and Ryan Day is sending out a new starting quarterback. I talk about the questions all Ohio State fans should have including the expectations for Justin Fields, the Defense, and the O-Line. I then breakdown FAU and what to watch for during the game.

Ryan Day announced a foregone conclusion and worse kept secret in college football. Justin Fields is the starter of Ohio State and now it is about becoming the best quarterback he can be for this team. I break down the situation and the quarterback room looking forward. The captains were named so I talk about the accomplishment being a captain is and why all the captains will play integral roles in the fabric of the team. Lastly, I talk about three positions battles!!

On this episode, we talk about the second week of practice and the most important takeaways of the Ohio State scrimmage. Listen to find out my thoughts on the QB situation, the new-look defense, and some new names who made a significant difference on the defensive side of the ball. I then talk about a man named Tathan and other news around the NCAA. I end with the hoop talk and the released nonconference schedule.

Notable national college football writer makes a false claim and the twitter mob ensues to tell him he's an idiot. On this episode, I go into some of the stories that were missed for whatever reason nationally and I detail why they should be significant news stories. A school has a pay for play scheme on an FBI wiretap, a school gives players PED's, and a school steals money from a children's hospital. Now the last one is a little dramatic, but it is not too far off.

The quarterbacks talk for the first time during fall camp and reveal a little about themselves, their goals, and I tell you why you should be excited for the two guys we got. I talk special teams and who the punt returner should be as well as why the position can be game-breaking with the right guy. Lastly, I talk some news around the oval by getting alternative, talking about text messages, and how some alumni continue making the university proud.

Ohio State has taken the field for the first time and football is officially on its way. Two competitions had some surprising twists and we take a look at the linebacking crew as well as the offensive line. I talk the supposed quarterback competition and the expectations for the defense this year. I answer my first fan question about Ryan Day's experience. All in all, we are finally here and football season has officially started. Go Bucks!!

On this Buckeye Breakdown, I get into the secondary groups. I explain the new Bullet position to fans who may not understand what it may be and I tell you who will play it. Then we get into the safeties with the importance of Jordan Fuller, who will line up next to him, and who will provide depth. Lastly, I talk about the cornerback position and why the three starters will be great, but depth may be a concern.

On this episode, the defensive line will definitely be a strength, but I tell you the names that will provide depth behind Chase Young, Robert Landers, Davon Hamilton, and Johnathon Cooper. Both positions are loaded with talent but that is the Ohio State expectation. The other part of our front seven was very disappointing last year and with new coaches, there will be competition. Will the incumbents remain or will some hungry young guys get their chance? Find out on Buck Off with Christopher Renne.

On this episode of Buck Off, I talk about the current standing of the receivers room. There is a mix of experience and once again 3 seniors will play a vital part in the success of the group as well as the possibility of some youthful insurgences. The Offensive Line has competition. 5th year senior Branden Bowen looks to claim the right tackle spot, but hear how I see it differently. I hit on our most underrated position group on the field and tell you how the three tight ends will be utilized.

On this episode of Buck Off with Christopher Renne, your host breaks down the Quarterback, Running Back, and H-Back positions as well as what to expect. Starting with the Quarterbacks I breakdown how the quarterback room got to where it was with transfers and walk-ons. I continue on and give you the expected starter and his expectations. Then I breakdown JK Dobbins and who the best H-back options are with one name that would surprise you.
