Summary

On this big Thursday Buckeye Talk Podcast from cleveland.com, Doug Lesmerises, Nathan Baird and Stephen Means discuss the cancellation of the Ohio State-Maryland game on Saturday and what it means for the Buckeyes. It's a difficult discussion at times, as Doug becomes agitated while attempting to outline recent coronavirus cases in counties where Big Ten teams are located, and he curses the debates he is imagining in his head. But the podcast does cover why Maryland canceled the game, what it might mean for the College Football Playoff and how Ohio State's coronavirus situation currently ranks compared to other Big Ten teams. Then, around the hour and three minute mark of this two-hour podcast, Doug, Nathan and Stephen move to more football topics from a text subscriber survey, including Justin Fields' Heisman Trophy chances; the likely OSU starting QB next year; which two players out of Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson and J.K. Dobbins would most help this team this season; and which team is the most likely to win the Big Ten West. The coronavirus discussion had to happen, but the plan will be to avoid a deep dive like that for the foreseeable future. Thanks for hanging in with Buckeye Talk.
