Summary

There is much to discuss on the midweek show with Dave Biddle and Matt Baxendell. Ohio State's defense looks excellent and we break down what can be expected from Matt Patricia's unit moving forward. Also, can the Buckeyes' red zone woes on offense be corrected, or might this be a lingering issue all season? And is it time for Bo Jackson to be the starting running back?

The Good morning Bucknottors welcome to the Bucknuts Morning 5 here on Wednesday, September 17th, 2025.

0:32.1

I am Dave Biddle.

0:32.9

I am joined by Matt Baxendell.

0:35.3

Let's start with this defense, man.

0:36.6

I couldn't be more impressed with this Ohio State defense.

0:38.6

And it turns out, I mean, Texas looks pretty shaky. And, you know, I was so impressed they held that Texas team scoreless for 56 minutes. Maybe Texas was the most overrated team in the country coming in. But still, it could be more impressive with what I'm seeing from Matt Patricia in this defense. We got a chance to speak with Coach Patricia yesterday, as you know, Bax.

0:53.9

And just your thoughts on this defense so far.

Well, three games under 10 points. I mean, that's a pretty good start. And, you know, Ohio is a good football team. I said it before the game. I've said it after the game.

due to poor quarterback play,

1:30.4

the Buckeyes were able to handle Texas.

1:33.7

And,

1:34.0

you know,

1:34.3

and before all the Texas fans coming here

1:36.3

and get all angry about how we're calling Texas overrated,

1:38.8

I would say it's not Texas that's overrated.

1:41.8

It's arch that's overrated.

1:43.2

I never understood watching his film why he was, what he was.

1:47.7

He has like the worst footwork you watch throwing the football.
