The

The Hello and welcome to the Bucknuts happy hour,

Buckeye fans.

I'm Patrick Murphy with Bucknuts in 24-7 sports here with you.

We've got a lot to talk about today. We're coming off of a big

Buckeye win against Penn State on the road. We're going to get into some of that. We've got

Purdue coming up this weekend at home. We'll get into a little bit of that, not as much as we

would for some of the other games. And we've got the college football playoff rankings, the first ones that just came out on Tuesday night that we're going to talk about as well.

So a lot to talk about a lot of good vibes for the Buckeyes,

which I'm going to be honest going into last weekend.

I did not know if that would be the case.

Unfortunately, because of some scheduling and we have interviews tonight and things like that,

I don't have a beer for this happy hour.

So we're going to do this one completely sober, but it'll keep me alert for interviews tonight.

But it should still be a good show.

So I want to start with the college football playoff rankings.

And to do that, I'm going to bring in my friend, 24-7 sports colleague, Brad Crawford.

Brad, how are we doing today?

Doing well, man.

I can accurately say that our final playoff projection Monday morning was the same exact 12 teams the committee had

on Tuesday night.

Not the same seating maybe, but same 12 teams.
