    Julian Sayin might be the best quarterback in the Big Ten by the end of the season, but which Ohio State opponent poses the biggest threat to that title?

  • What Ryan Day wants to see from Ohio State after Texas win

    What Ryan Day wants to see from Ohio State after Texas win
    Sep 3 2025
    Ohio State got through the Texas game with a win, and now the real work can start. Ryan Day took the moment to breathe after the game, but his focus has quickly shifted to building this team's identity. That's especially on offense after taking a conservative approach against the Longhorns. Now it has three weeks to perfect what the true version of this offense will look like. It's time for OSU to get aggressive against its opponents, starting with Grambling State. On this episode of Buckeye Talk, Stephen Means, Stefan Krajisnik and Andrew Gillis discuss what that could look like.

On this episode of Buckeye Talk, Stephen Means and Andrew Gillis try to break down what recruiting looks like in the modern era and how OSU fits into it. This conversation might get a little confusing, but maybe that mirrors exactly where things are in the sport right now.
