| 0:00.0 | Oh, Good morning |
| 0:24.3 | I am G People's champ Matt Baxendale as we bask in the glow of Ohio State's 52 to 12 |
| 0:36.4 | win in East Lansing over Sparty backs how goes it on a Sunday well Well after Ohio State finally put together what appeared to be a much more complete performance, |
| 0:47.6 | I would say certainly for the first time this entire season really. I think we're all probably in a little happier mood than we've been on some of these Sundays where we've been more than a little non-plussed about the way things went in the second half of the games on defense. |
| 1:03.9 | So this is the happiest Sunday I've had so far after an OSU game this year. |
| 1:09.4 | If you had used the Bucknuts roundtable, the staff prediction was 46 to 18. It finished 52 to 12, so you'd have |
| 1:18.8 | nailed the total exactly, you'd have had the over and the buckeyes. |
| 1:24.0 | Let's talk about that backs. |
| 1:25.9 | They did not let their foot off the gas. |
| 1:28.0 | There was not the second half crumble. |
| 1:31.0 | In light of the fact that they were playing with three non-usual starter offensive |
| 1:35.7 | Lyman and their general depth was hit what kind of statement do you think this makes for |
| 1:40.5 | the rest of the country when Ohio State can do this with a limp. |
| 1:44.7 | Well, I think this is a huge thing for Ohio State. |
| 1:47.3 | This is the first time that you can really look at the roster and say, wow, they were missing a quarter of their scholarship players and they still went out and won by 40 points. |
| 1:57.2 | This is the kind of game that's a little bit more unimpeachable to criticism that they've sort of been getting the last four, so the games this year before this happened. |
| 2:07.2 | The reality is, you're missing three of their five starters on the offensive line, |
| 2:12.1 | four of the five were playing out of the |
| 2:14.1 | normal position. Really, Wyatt Davis was the only guy playing on the offensive line |
| 2:18.6 | and the spot he's been at all year. You're missing a tough Borland on defense who was essentially the quarterback. You're missing another starter and Josh Proctor and then they went out and absolutely dominated. |
| 2:30.0 | You cannot give enough credit to Justin Fields and this revamped offensive line for the way they played yesterday |
| 2:36.5 | I think you it's not just they played okay. They ran for 322 yards behind a makeshift second tier or third team even offensive line if you're talking about the fact that Max Ray was actually in the third tier of tackles before all this hit. |
