And certainly when it comes to IndyCar racing and Mid-Ohio and Buckeye lifestyle and all of that,

0:30.2

there are two things about IndyCar that have made me nauseous.

0:34.9

One is when I did a two-seater on a road course.

0:37.6

I was very nauseous. And the other is anytime Graham Rahal starts talking about Ohio State. But he knows the Buckeyes better than anybody, and I figured he would be the perfect person to preview it. He joins us now on the Java House Peel and Poor Guest Line. Graham, you fired up for the game. I am, brother. I am. Hey, you know, I don't rub it in too much. I was rubbing it in more to you when Clemson was actually a good football program. But that's changed, brother. Listen, how about the beginning? And I'm trying to go where we were on opening Saturday. And you and I are talking.

1:46.9

okay, Arch Manning's too young, moments too big for him.

1:49.7

And that Ohio State defense is obviously elite.

1:53.1

Do you see that as the biggest challenge for Indiana Saturday?

1:57.8

Yeah, I think so.

1:59.4

I mean, look, first off, I think it's super cool to see indiana uh in the position
