| 0:00.0 | Hey, hey, where you been? But God talk is about to begin. Hey, hey, hey, come on in. |
| 0:30.0 | Welcome back to Bucket Talks, Steve Amines, Nathan Baird, Andrew Gillis after Ohio |
| 0:36.8 | State's 20 to 12 win over Penn State, another top 15 win, top 10 win for Ohio State. |
| 0:43.3 | Noted that was in the top 10 when they played them. So you can say that even though the number |
| 0:46.1 | 15 right now, but top another top 10 win for Ohio State. And let's just off the bat. Nathan, |
| 0:51.9 | I'll come to you first. We did a video on this. And I think it's a worthy discussion and |
| 0:55.9 | start things off here. Can Ohio State win a national championship on the back of its |

| 1:30.0 | I mean, this defense today, yes, there were a couple of plays that it gave up, you know, |
| 1:35.0 | Pinsley weirdly had like its most success on first down. And it was at one point in this |
| 1:39.1 | game where it had 15, it four plays of 15 and more yards. They were all on first down. |
| 1:43.5 | And then like at one point, it was like six out of seven. And, but then Ohio State kept |
| 1:51.6 | putting, this was, I thought just a little bit of a masterclass by Jim Knowles, like you |
