Betting on the Buckeyes | OSU with third-best odds to win 2023 CFB national title Apr 05, 2023

Show notes

This fall will mark the first college football season where legalized bets on college football will be placed in the state of Ohio. Given how much the Buckeye State loves football (and looking at the numbers, how much our state loves sports gambling in general), it's going to be wild.

On today's show, Dave Biddle is joined by Scotty Vegas, who is his co-host for the On The Money show on 97.1 The Fan in Columbus. What are betting odds for Ohio State to win the national championship in 2023? What about Heisman odds and NFL Draft odds? How do we feel about the 2023 Buckeyes in general? Will they go to Ann Arbor and beat their rivals this year? What are possible concerns about the 2023 squad? Or is this team primed for a huge season?

We also talk some OSU hoops. Is this a make-or-break year for Chris Holtmann? What are some interesting college basketball odds for next season?

All of that and more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

Lone Star State expert on Peoples, Buckeyes recruiting Texas Apr 04, 2023

Show notes

Ohio State has offered 127 prospects in the Class of 2024.

Which states top the offer list? Florida (31 offers) and Georgia (20). We've had 247Sports' Andrew Ivins on routinely to handle that region's recruiting intrigue.

What state comes next? Hint: Not Ohio.

It's Texas, with 13 offers, including one accepted by San Antonio star running back James Peoples earlier this week.

Who else could matriculate from Texas to Ohio for college?

We welcome in 247Sports Recruiting Analyst Brian Perroni for his inaugural BM5 appearance to talk Peoples, other Texas targets Kobe Black, Payton Pierce and host of others.

All that plus what Texas A&M thinks of its chances to snag Air Noland.

Peoples to OSU | Feel it coming in the 'Air' Saturday night? | Scrimmage recap Apr 03, 2023

Show notes

We have a loaded version of the podcast today as Steve Helwagen joins Dave Biddle. Among the items on the agenda:

* Ohio State landed the No. 5 running back in the country yesterday, James Peoples from San Antonio. We like it. A lot.

* Also, the No. 7 quarterback in the land in the 2024 class -- Air Noland -- received his offer from the Buckeyes during his visit over the weekend. Will he commit to OSU this Saturday? Can you feel it coming in the air tonight? OK, Saturday night? (Really Saturday afternoon, but we're trying to tell Dad Jokes here. So get with it.)

* If that wasn't enough, almost all of the Buckeyes' practice on Saturday was open to the media. What stood out to us the most? One thing that definitely did was the strong play from true freshman WR Carnell Tate. But the defense took it to the offense for the most part.

All of that and much more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

If McCord is starter, how will he perform? | Will Buckeyes offer Air Noland? Mar 31, 2023

Show notes

On today's show, Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle to discuss the following topics on Ohio State football:

If Kyle McCord is the starting quarterback for the Buckeyes this year, what are our expectations for him?

Who wins the right tackle job?

Who will lead the team in sacks?

Cornerback Davison Igbinosun is very impressive on and off the field.

Here is how the safeties are lining up during spring: Josh Proctor at adjuster with Kye Stokes is his backup. Lathan Ransom at bandit with Sonny Styles behind him. Cam Martinez running with the 1s at the slot, with Ja'Had Carter running with the 2s. This won't be how it is for the season, right?

QB recruit Air Noland will visit OSU this weekend. Will the Buckeyes offer?

All of that and more is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.
