We wanted to see a dominant performance from Ohio State and that is exactly what happened against visiting Western Kentucky on Saturday. The No. 6 Buckeyes (3-0) defeated the Hilltoppers (2-1) 63-10, giving OSU momentum heading into the clash at Notre Dame next week.

We talked all about it on our postgame podcast, What We Learned Live. Host Dave Biddle was joined by Matt Baxendell, Patrick Murphy and Steve Helwagen. Welcome to our postgame podcast, What We Learned Live!

There is no question this is a talented Ohio State team. However, there are some question marks surrounding the Buckeyes, such as short-yardage situations on offense, a lack of pressure on defense and more. The big question is can these issues be fixed?

Third down conversion headquarters | Where's the pass rush? Sep 13, 2023

Show notes

Oh, you want to hear about Kyle McCord being named QB1? You want to hear about Ohio State's defense? Well, first things first. What about the third-down woes for the Buckeyes' offense? OK, alright, we will get to the QBs and defense of course ... and we enjoyed the exchange between Ryan Day and Bucknuts at his press conference yesterday.

That is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

Did eye in sky lie? | QB progress report | Bo knows football? Sep 12, 2023

Show notes

Welcome to our Tuesday show that features Mark Porter. Bill Kurelic is off this week, no doubt sunning himself in a tropical locale.

But that didn't stop us from getting into Mark's 'Buck-Eye In The Sky' film breakdown of Ohio State's win over YSU. Was it good enough?

We also took plenty of questions from viewers and it turned out to be a nice little show.

Buckeyes have their QB1 | Burke steps up | 3rd down woes for offense Sep 11, 2023

Show notes

There is much to discuss on the show today as Dan Rubin joins Dave Biddle. It sure appears as though Ohio State has its QB1 and he is Kyle McCord. Will Ryan Day say as much this week? Or let things play out one more week before making any grand proclamations? Also on the agenda:

* McCord looked sharp against Youngstown State, but the offense overall was a bit choppy. How concerned are we about this?

* Here is a stat we do not like seeing: the Buckeyes rank 114th in the country in third down conversions. They better get that cleaned up in a hurry.

* Denzel Burke is stepping up at cornerback for OSU.

* Mike Hall and Tyleik Williams look good at defensive tackle.

* But OSU isn't getting much production from J.T. Tuimoloau and Jack Sawyer off the edge. What gives there?

* What do we make of the situation at running back with TreVeyon Henderson, Miyan Williams and Chip Trayanum all seeing roughly the same workload against YSU?

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