Hey, hey, where you've been?

Bucket talk is about to begin.

Hey, hey, hey hey come on then welcome back to buck i talk i am stevene kreisn't and that is and Andrew gillis and this is your official game preview

pod though this is the playoffs so everything has been a game preview pod up to this point last week

we put out two big big pods like an hour and 45 minutes each breaking down both sides of the

ball offense versus defense was on Thursday on Christmas Day. It was a great gift to you.

And then the day after Christmas, we did defense versus the offense, Ohio State versus Miami in the Cotton Bowl on Wednesday night as what will be the final college football game in 2025.

It's crazy.

And we've been here twice.

Who thought?

What a year was for Ohio State specifically, too.

Like, 2025 starts with the beatdown of Oregon and the Rose Bowl,

and you get the dramatic scoop and Sawyer in the Cotton Bowl.

You get, you know, Third in Jeremiah,

and then you get an offseason of Chip Kelly leaving and Jim Knowles leaving.

And, oh, by the way, a championship celebration before any of that happened, I guess.

And then an undefeated regular season.

And now it ends with a Big Ten championship game loss to like the most shocking Cinderella story in college football history.

And now it's the Gottman Bowl back in Dallas for a matchup with Miami, a school from

the city that gave you the second best recruit in program history.

Like it's, I just, I think about it and it's like what you were just saying there about

2025. You guys ever watch like Dick Clark's rocking New Year's. I just, I think about it and it's like what you were just saying there about 2025.
