| 0:29.0 | Good morning, Bucknoters. Welcome to the Bucknuts Morning 5 here on Monday, December 6, 2021. |
| 0:34.0 | I am Dave Biddle flying solo on this edition. There's a lot to get into today. |
| 0:38.0 | We're going to read between the lines of what Ryan Day had to say yesterday. |
| 0:41.0 | We met with the media for the first time really since the Michigan game. |
| 0:44.0 | There was the post game presser in Ann Arbor. That's always scattered. |
| 0:47.0 | It's always about five, seven minutes. It's not a real press conference. |

| 1:35.0 | All close games, all single digit games. I think BYU, they lost by nine. |

| 1:48.0 | And then once this past Friday night in the pack 12 championship game, they're physical. |
| 1:53.0 | I just like the way they play. This is and this is a tough matchup for Ohio State because what kind of teams does Ohio State struggle against physical teams as we've seen this year. |
