THE Podcast: Ohio State Football News

Doug and Bill make their College Football Playoff picks on this Kings of Columbus, and the Ohio State Buckeyes are in the mix.

They also start their Kings of the North discussion. That means breaking off 28 college football teams in the North and ranking the best players and best teams — while still keeping an eye on teams from the South. Thanks for taking part in this big season preview on Kings of Columbus.

THE Podcast Daily for Thursday, Aug. 24 is going back to the stock market and taking a swing at which players are primed to make an early impact on the 2023 season for Ohio State now that fall camp is over.

Who is standing out to Austin Ward, Bill Landis and Jeremy Birmingham? 

Ohio State coach Ryan Day said this week he wasn't ready to pick a starting quarterback between Kyle McCord and Devin Brown. On this Kings of Columbus, Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis explain what they think of Brown and McCord in the battle, why Day hasn't made a choice yet, and what it means for Ohio State. They also set the deadline for when they think a call should, and will, be made. 

Oh, and this is not like Ohio State's 215 quarterback decision.

They also look at Day's decision on play-calling, how many other college football teams don't have a firm starting quarterback yet, and what the mix of experience at quarterback around the country means for the playoff race this season. 

Thanks for joining Doug and Bill on Kings of Columbus.

THE Podcast Daily for Wednesday, Aug. 23, 2023 takes a look at how Ryan Day's decision to hold onto play calling duties for Ohio State can impact the 2023 Buckeyes.

The Buckeyes receivers are the best in the NCAA and now that everyone is healthy, could Brian Hartline's group actually be better?

THE Podcast is trying to get to the bottom of that in the latest edition of Snap Judgments from the Woody Hayes Athletic Center.

Larry Johnson has added a monster win to his resume as the Buckeyes land a hugely important commitment from five-star defensive end Eddrick Houston.

What does his decision mean for the Buckeyes? THE Podcast's Jeremy Birmingham is joined by Andrew Ellis to break that down on the latest commitment analysis from THE Podcast.

THE Podcast Daily for Tuesday, Aug. 22, 2023 takes a deeper look at Jim Knowles willingness and desire to experiment the depth and talent of this season's Ohio State defense.

THE Podcast is back at Roosters on Olentangy River Road in Columbus talking about Ohio State football and whether or not Ryan Day's decision to not name a quarterback will come back to haunt him.

Austin Ward and Jeremy Birmingham are joined by former Buckeyes linebackers Bobby Carpenter and Zach Boren—along with Nicole Cox of Roosters—to give their thoughts on where things go from here.

THE Podcast was at THE Woody Hayes Athletic Center on Monday as Ryan Day met with the media to break down his quarterback battle and to most people's surprise, the competition continues.

Austin Ward, Bill Landis and Jeremy Birmingham give their thoughts on what that means for Ohio State with 12 days until the Buckeyes 2023 season opener at Indiana.

Welcome back to another week of fall camp updates on THE Podcast and THE Podcast Daily.

The Monday, Aug. 21, 2023 edition of the show has Austin Ward, Bill Landis and Jeremy Birmingham giving their thoughts on the Buckeyes choosing just three captains and then more discussion about the upcoming decision that Ryan Day has to make about his starting quarterback.

Will today be the day that happens?
