In this live episode of the Buckeye Weekly Podcast, Tom Orr, Tony Gerdeman, and Juck Miletti preview the Ohio State - Texas game while they wait for the Buckeyes' team bus to arrive so that they can grab a few minutes with Ryan Day. Little did they know that the Buckeyes' plane was going to be a little bit delayed, so the fellas did a little more previewing than they expected, but had help from all of the questions from the livestream viewers.

In the final installment of Thursday night's live 2-hour show, Tom, Juck, and Tony discuss some of the secondary players who may become primary in this game. Ohio State receiver Devin McCuin won't have the attention that Jeremiah Smith has on him, so can he take advantage of that? Likewise, the Buckeyes are going to be very worried about Texas defensive end Colin Simmons. Can linebacker Rasheem Biles make the same kind of plays he did last week against Texas State?

In the fourth installment of Thursday night's live show from Austin, Juck, Tom, and Tony discuss Legend Bey's role in Saturday's game against Texas. Will he be back at kick returner?

Will he have more than the 10 snaps he got last week? The fellas talk about all of this and also answer a question about how the Buckeyes plan to handle the heat on Saturday.

In the third part of the Thursday night live stream from Austin, Tony Gerdeman, Tom Orr, and Juck Miletti discuss the confidence that Texas fans have in Ohio State's defense being completely revamped from last season.
