And the Good morning.

Bucknoters. Welcome to Do The Buckness Morning Five here on Wednesday, October 21st, 2020.

I am Dave Biddle. I am joined by Matt Baxendale.

Bax, three days and counting. Nebraska has 15 returning starters, including 10 offensively,

Buckeyes favored by 26.

What do you expect will happen on Saturday?

Well, first of all, I just want to dwell on the fact that we're three days away from Ohio State finally playing football.

Like, there's a certain point in time when we didn't think we were going to get this opportunity, you know?

And I just, I'm thrilled that we are just finally going to get there.

Finally, like this is the longest weight we've ever had for Ohio State football. And I'm just so happy it's returning. You know what I mean? Like, like there's just no other way to put it other than this is something that I think all of us have been

dying for to get here. The excitement that we have about this season being here,

especially with the type of season, Ohio States on par for, you know, being a championship contender not just in the big 10, but of course across the country is, I am so excited it's here.

Now, we're playing Nebraska who is the least excited game for me

on the entire season because I'm grateful to Nebraska for their significant role they played in

getting us here. Like this is the Kevin Warren FU Bowl, right?

Where he was like, all right, fine, we'll give you a season,

then you have to play each other.

Hey Nebraska, you can play Ohio State now. You're gonna lose by 40 to start the season.

So that's that's also sort of my prediction but we talk about returning starters and

look it's it's one thing to say you have a bunch of returning starters.

And if you're like Ohio State and you go,

look at all the returning starters
