Henderson out ... who's in? | Dunn deal | Georgia vibes
Now we know: TreVeyon Henderson will not play in the Peach Bowl against defending national champ Georgia. The sophomore running back announced he's having surgery Friday on a foot injury suffered against Toledo on Sept. 17. So what does that mean for Ohio State? What does that mean for Henderson? What does that mean for Miyan Williams, Deamonte Trayanum and Dallan Hayden? We asked The People's Champ - Matt Baxendell - for his take. Prepare yourself for a running backs deep dive. Also: Jantzen Dunn has entered the transfer portal. Who joins him? Which Buckeyes could emerge in CFP practices and thrive in Atlanta? We discuss 'you know who.'

Can the Utes get it done? | Hartline sticking around | Will Buckeyes hit portal hard in 2023?
There is much to discuss about Ohio State football as Jonah Booker drops by for his usual Friday visit. JBook and Dave Biddle look ahead to tonight's Pac-12 Championship Game between USC and Utah. If the Utes pull the mild upset (the Trojans are favored by 2.5 points), the Buckeyes will be in position to make the College Football Playoff. Also on the docket: * If USC wins but TCU loses, would 12-1 TCU get in over 11-1 Ohio State? * Brian Hartline is staying at OSU which is obviously great news for the Buckeyes. * Will there be changes to Ryan Day's staff this offseason? * Should the Buckeyes hit the transfer portal hard in 2023? * The 12-team playoff is coming in 2024 and JBook loves it.

Focused forward | Recruiting trail updates | Fearing Fickell?
We've begun to emerge from the fog. Our focus is forward. Ok, did we have Mark Porter release his autopsy findings on The Game? Sure. But then our focus really was forward.

So you're telling us there's a chance
Ohio State played dumb and then dumber in the second half against Michigan. However, despite that loss, the Buckeyes still have a chance at making the College Football Playoff. If USC loses to Utah in the Pac-12 Championship Game on Friday, the Buckeyes are in. Would they also get in with a TCU loss? Regardless, it was very good news for OSU last evening when the committee placed the Buckeyes at No. 5 and Alabama at No. 6 in the CFP rankings. Matt Baxendell and Dave Biddle talk all about that and much more on the Wednesday 5ish.

Steve also goes into detail on how Wisconsin's hire of Luke Fickell will impact the Buckeyes given his Ohio ties. Then Dan shares his thoughts on The Game and where the program goes from here.

10-star Wednesday (Paris Johnson Jr's mom; Donovan Jackson's mom)
Ohio State left tackle Paris Johnson Jr. and left guard Donovan Jackson were each 5-star recruits. Even using Bucknuts' math, that adds up to be a combined 10 stars. Speaking of stars, we are thrilled to be joined by the mothers of the left side of the Buckeyes' offensive line on today's show: Monica Daniels (Paris' mom) and Melanie Jackson (Donovan's mom). They each give insights on a bevy of topics during an episode you won't want to miss.

It's Penn State time | JSN done? | Hooray hooray for Harrison & Harrison | Tommy for Butkus
Ohio State is favored by 15.5 at Penn State this Saturday. Steve Helwagen and Dave Biddle give a primer on that matchup on today's show. Plus, have we seen the last of Jaxon Smith-Njigba playing for the Buckeyes? Obviously, we hope not, but it sure didn't look good. Also, what was up with Ohio State's running game against Iowa? Yes, the Hawkeyes are very good defensively, but 2.2 yards per carry? Yikes. On the good side, how about Zach Harrison and Tommy Eichenberg? And Marvin Harrison Jr.? All of that and much more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.
