| 0:00.0 | Now, are all the traitors present? Let's get started, shall we? From rags to riches. I'm so sick of this. Working like a dog and being treated worse. Yorkshire to New York. Poor climbers, you and me. A life dedicated to revenge. Let's make this an occasion to remember. A woman of substance on Channel 4, stream now. What's up Buckeye fans? |
| 0:47.3 | It's Patrick Murphy from Bucknuts and 24-7 sports here with you for another episode of the Bucknuts Happy Hour. |
| 0:55.2 | It's spring break for the Buckeyes for kids at Ohio State, and that means no spring |
| 0:59.9 | practice for Ohio State football, but it does allow us time to really dive into the Buckeye |
| 1:05.8 | basketball team, who is headed back to the NCAA tournament and will open up the postseason play. |
| 1:12.1 | Well, I guess I've already played two postseason games, but opened up March Madness play |
| 1:16.1 | in the first game of the NCAA tournament on Thursday. |
| 1:19.1 | That game will tip off at 12.15 p.m. Eastern time on CBS. |

| 1:45.3 | South Carolina, where the Buckeyes will play TCU. He will give us some insight on what he's seen |
| 1:51.5 | and heard down there. They had some interviews today. He was able to watch some open practice. |
| 1:55.7 | So some good stuff from Steve. And I will talk about sort of the keys for the Buckeyes making a run |
| 2:02.4 | in the NCAA tournament. And it won't be easy because if you beat TCU, you're likely |
| 2:07.9 | getting Duke in the second round, a number one seed. But there are, there are some, |
| 2:12.5 | some interesting numbers that hopefully help, you know, at least provide encouragement for Ohio State. |
| 2:18.4 | Before we get into that, let me remind you to, if you're watching this on YouTube, make sure |
| 2:24.8 | you hit the thumbs up button and hit the bell for notifications when we ever we post videos. |
| 2:32.3 | Remember, not just our podcast, but all of our videos go up on |
