Summary

On this Wednesday Buckeye Talk, Doug Lesmerises and Nathan Baird dip into Ohio State's schedule strength and the opposing players that may bother the Buckeyes the most in 2021. Nathan, Doug, Stephen and Kayla Harvey have been rolling out a new capsule each day on the 50 best opposing players on Ohio State's 12-game regular-season schedule. So Doug and Nathan discussed the four teams with the most players in the top 50 -- Oregon, Penn State, Indiana and Michigan -- and then started rolling through some of the most interesting names among the first 25 players on the list. They'll cover the top-25 on a pod later in July. Among the opponents that the guys broke down, while theorizing if they could hurt the Buckeyes and how they'd do it: • Minnesota QB Tanner Morgan • Oregon QB Anthony Brown • Penn State receiver Parker Washington • Michigan quarterbacks Cade McNamara and J.J. McCarthy It's almost July, which means it's almost time to really start breaking down Ohio State's schedule and expectations, and this was Doug and Nathan starting to wade into that water.

0:27.6

Welcome back to the big Wednesday podcast to Glamoury's Nathan Baird. We're talking about the best players that Ohio State are is going to face this season, Nathan. And I feel like here we are.

0:38.6

This is being released on Wednesday, June 30th, which 30 days have September, April, June and November is the last day of June.

0:48.6

And all the rest have 31 except for February with Duff combined to give to I don't know something about leap year.

0:55.6

I learned it's like second grade. Didn't you like learn the thing about that? I did. Yeah.

1:00.6

And then they lied to you. It's one of the many lies they tell you in elementary school, along with like Columbus and whatever else. But like they say then short February, which has 28 because they didn't want to then add a whole like a random paragraph on about the leap year.

1:15.6

The way I learned it was just like all the rest have 31 except short February, which has 28 like period. And then the first time you find out there's February 29, your head explodes.

1:24.6

You know, so I listen to this podcast. One time was called I think revolutions. It was called this was very well done. And it went through various revolutions. They had like different seasons. It was different revolutions in world history.

1:38.6

Did the American Revolution to the French Revolution, Haitian Revolution, a couple different ones.

1:44.6

But like did you know, I mean, I guess I didn't learn this in second grade, but I probably should have learned along the way like I think at like some point.

1:52.6

And the French Revolution, like Napoleon, then like made the weeks 10 days long and they just made like a whole different calendar and stuff and it makes you realize like, you know, the 365 days thing.

2:05.6

I mean, that's, you know, it's that's based on something, right? That's real. Then the 24 hours is yeah 24 hours is real. But the way that we parcel out those 365 24 hour segments, completely arbitrary.

2:20.6

The idea that like, well, it's a Sunday. Sunday is not a thing. It's just like a, I mean, it's.

2:25.6

And then he made it like a 10 to X way. I think like they had like a one day weekend or something. It was like it's like a longer week. So months, months, what are months?

2:35.6

Honestly. And like, but then they couldn't divide them up any more efficiently than like the way they did. You know what I mean? Like I just, and I feel like that if we were doing it again now.

2:46.6

You would do it in a way that every four years, you would make that that extra day, like more of a celebration than it is, right? I mean, it's like we can do that anyway.

2:57.6

But I mean, we can't do it. Like you and I, I mean, as much as we would try, we have our loyal book. I talk listeners who frankly, the way this podcast has started might we might have lost a few already.

3:08.6

Man, a fewer, but like, what are we going to do? But like shouldn't that should be like a world celebration day. It's like everybody should stop and just celebrate the world celebrate life celebrate that this is happening at all.

3:20.6

One day every 40 years, it's the bonus day, leap day also leap. What is that? How about bonus year bonus day or likes like something cool?

3:32.6

It is kind of when it's like when you get like three paychecks in a month instead of two and you feel like that's you're getting something extra when in reality. It's it's not, but it's like it.

3:42.6

I had a, I had a friend someone I went to school with whose older brother had a February 29th birthday and that always seemed like such a bummer to me.

3:52.6
