Summary

Doug and Nathan break off of discussing current Buckeyes to discuss the ones who have moved on to the NFL. Would a team made up of only OSU alums be a Super Bowl contender? Obviously few teams can match the pairing of edge rushers and secondary that the former Buckeyes could put on the field. But is the offense powerful enough, and more specifically, is Justin Fields ready to lead a team this talented in the playoffs?

And I will tell you Nathan, this is a much more interesting and deeply involved exercise

and they were like an awesome college program that wasn't producing a ton of NFL superstars

1:01.0

in an era where Michigan's former or co-quarterback was the best player in the NFL.

1:07.8

So I mean, it was kind of a weird thing, and now you do this, and especially on the

1:11.4

defensive side of the ball, there are buckais everywhere, and it's a little different

1:17.4

for us because for Cleveland.com, we cover an NFL team.

1:22.9

So we, I think from our standpoint, don't cover the Ohio State guys and the NFL as much

1:29.6

like, hey, your favorite NFL guy might be a former Ohio State guy wherever he is, where

1:40.5

it's like we're assuming, we're writing and talking for an audience who cares about

1:43.7

the Cleveland Browns.

1:45.1

But man, Nathan, there, there's a lot of dudes aren't there.

1:48.5

I mean, it's kind of fun to do an exercise like this, and what we're going to do is try
