Summary

Ohio State football is No. 1 in the first College Football Playoff rankings released on Tuesday night, and Nathan Baird, Stephen Means and Doug Lesmerises are here to break that all down. They are also here to eat pizza. On this edition of Buckeye Talk, they debate what will happen with next week’s rankings after the game between No. 2 LSU and No. 3 Alabama, and get into whether Ohio State is in such good shape, the Buckeyes could make the playoff even with a loss. There’s some talk of seniors that could be even better pros than they are college players, and they preview the Ohio State basketball season that starts on Wednesday night. They they get into pizza. This is the week of the long awaited pizza challenge, as Stephen will attempt to eat an entire large deep dish pizza from Giordano’s by himself. That’s in the last 20 minutes of the podcast.
