Summary
It is Wednesday, so it is of course time to "pollinate the flower" on the Bucknuts Morning 5.
(If you have no idea what we're talking about, follow this link to get caught up on the inside joke.)
The People's Champ, Matt Baxendell, joins Dave Biddle to pollinate about:
* Ohio State head coach Ryan Day's comments about quarterback Justin Fields being "light years ahead" of where he expected.
* Cornerback Damon Arnette being very confident about the Buckeyes this season, going as far as to tell the media he expects OSU will win the national championship.
* Bax's thoughts on redshirt freshman running back Master Teague.
* Bax's expectations for the Michigan at Wisconsin game Saturday.
* Oh yeah, Ohio State also has a game this Saturday. We will talk about that, too.
All of that and more is coming at you on a fully-pollinated version of the Wednesday 5ish.
