Summary
Tuesday brought good news for Ohio State as the Buckeyes returned to the practice field after pausing all team activities for three days due to some people in the program testing positive for COVID-19. Then Tuesday evening, the Buckeyes learned they were staying at No. 4 in the College Football Playoff rankings, after many analysts predicted they would drop to No. 5.
Matt Baxendell joins Dave Biddle to discuss all of that, OSU's upcoming game at Michigan State and much more on the Wednesday 5ish.

| 0:00.0 | And the Good morning buck nutters. |
| 0:23.0 | Welcome to the Bucknuts Morning Five here on Wednesday, December 2nd, 2020. |
| 0:27.4 | I am Dave Biddle. |
| 0:28.2 | I am joined by Matt Baxendale. |
| 0:31.2 | A tremendous amount of information to get into on today's show. |
| 0:34.8 | Let's start right at the top of the buck guys retaining their number four spot in |
| 0:38.7 | the college football playoff rankings backs. |
| 0:41.6 | I wasn't surprised but you never know because there was a lot of analysts |
| 0:45.2 | predicting they could drop your thoughts on the buck I stand at number four. |
| 0:49.5 | I'm not surprised. If anybody watched Texas A&M play LSU this weekend, they were the team that would have been the one to move into that spot and they were beyond unimpressive to me. |
| 1:00.0 | I think watching Aggie versus OSU, you have to think OSU would be a double digit favorite if they ever got on the field so I'm not surprised. |
| 1:08.0 | I think people want to do all this chit chat and about how OSU hasn't played as many games right now, but the truth is there's not like a viable alternative that's sitting there forcing their way into the top four. |

| 1:34.4 | don't really care who we play as long as we play a couple more just so they see some games. |
| 1:38.8 | I'd very much like to get Sparty and then of course the game in the way it is but you know as long as they |
| 1:44.9 | play their two games and they win them the Ohio State's in the playoff that's the |
| 1:49.2 | bottom line I don't think there's anything else to get really to work pipe about right |
| 1:52.2 | now. Oh yeah if there's seven else to get really to work pipe about right now. |
| 1:53.0 | Oh yeah, if there's seven and no is Big Ten Champ they're in. |
| 1:56.2 | I even think they're in for sure and I know, you know, I see people on ESP and disagreeing |
