Summary

The similarities between Ohio State's 2014 and 2024 national championships are striking. Each team was left for dead multiple times during the regular season, only to go on a magical postseason run and prove all of their doubters extremely wrong. 2014 of course featured the first season of the 4-team College Football Playoff and the eventual national champs were the final team to make it. Ten years later, the 12-team CFP was born ... and the Buckeyes won that one, too. After being the lowest-seeded team to host a first-round game (seed No. 8). There are more we can point to as well, but those are a few. This brought to mind a question: Which coaching job was the best? 2014 or 2024? And you can't just say "Yes." You have to pick one. Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle do exactly that on today's show, plus discuss the Jim Knowles situation, teams coming after Carnell Tate and much more. That is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.
