Brandon Beam and Austin Ward kick of the show with Julian Sayin praise, why is Matt Patricia's defense so dominant, Jeremy Birmingham, takeaways across the college football landscape, and more on this episode of the Buckeye Show.
The Ohio State Buckeyes continue to roll through their 2025 regular season, knocking off Wisconsin, 34-0 to improve to 7-0 on the season.There was a lot to like from the Buckeyes' perspective, starting with a stunning performance from QB Julian Sayin, who finished 36-for-42 for 393 yards and four touchdowns. WR Carnell Tate added a pair of touchdown receptions, and the Buckeye defense put together four totally impressive quarters, continuing its historically dominating run under defensive coordinator Matt Patricia.But there were areas for concern as well, including another rough day for the rushing attack, and an uneven performance by the special teams.Tony Gerdeman of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to recap it all on this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast.

Our old friend Matt Patricia throws shade in Mike Lombardi's direction
Entering the Buckeyes' game at Illinois, Matt Patricia's defense was allowing fewer than six points per game, and had given up just two touchdowns total in five games.Then, the Illini used an up-tempo offense to put up a pair of touchdowns in the second half of their 34-16 loss to the Buckeyes.So is that going to be a potential concern for Patricia's defense moving forward? And why did it create issues against the Illini?Ross Fulton, the Xs and Os guru at BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to answer that and discuss much more from the game, and what it could mean this weekend against Wisconsin.
Wisconsin head coach Luke Fickell met with the media to preview the Badgers' game this weekend with top-ranked Ohio State.Fickell, of course, has deep ties to the Buckeyes as a former player, assistant coach, and head coach, and shared his thoughts on Ryan Day's team, Matt Patricia's defense, and much more.In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, you'll hear Fickell discuss the game, the calls for him to lose his job in the midst of a disastrous season, and more.
A deep dive into Matt Patricia's "NFLized" Ohio State defense, the Cowboys' defensive struggles under Eberflus, and why Mike Vrabel has the Patriots looking like a legit threat.—In this episode:*Penn State's season is considered a “total collapse” after starting the year with national championship expectations. The team's struggles, which began at halftime of the Oregon game, ultimately led to the firing of Head Coach James Franklin.*The reigning champion Ohio State Buckeyes look even better this season, with their defense being “NFLized” by new coordinator Matt Patricia. He has introduced more complex schemes, including half-field zones, mixed coverages, and blitzing off of motion, which have made their already talented unit more formidable.*The reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles are faltering, having lost back-to-back games after starting the season undefeated. The hosts criticize the offense, which is now being called by Nick Sirianni again, as looking like a “high school offense” that lacks creativity.*The Kansas City Chiefs' offense is officially back after putting up 30 points in a blowout win against the Detroit Lions on Sunday Night Football. The hosts believe the Chiefs' defensive scheme, which favors a 4-3 base defense, was a perfect situational matchup to stop the Lions' run-heavy offense.*Several underdog teams are proving they are legitimate threats. Indiana, once considered just a “basketball school,” looks revitalized under coach Kurt Signetti. In the NFL, the New England Patriots are now considered a “legit AFC threat” under Mike Vrabel and quarterback Drake May.—Timestamps:00:00 - Intro: The Dolphins Just Keep Dolphining 00:42 - College Football is Back 01:04 - Penn State is Dead: The James Franklin Era Ends 01:17 - Can Anyone in the Big Ten Beat Ohio State? 05:11 - X's & O's: How Matt Patricia is “NFLizing” the Buckeyes Defense 07:46 - Please “Google” Curt Cignetti: Why Indiana Football is For Real 11:01 - Red River Recap: Texas Defense Dominates Oklahoma 12:45 - College Quick Hits: Tortilla-gate & Undefeated BYU 14:11 - NFL: Eagles Suffer Shocking Blowout Loss to the Giants 16:31 - The NFC East is Suddenly Wide Open 19:35 - The Denver Broncos Have an Elite Pass Rush 23:22 - Are the Patriots a Legit AFC Threat? 26:22 - The Colts are Quietly One of the NFL's Best Teams 29:23 - The Kyler Murray Problem in Arizona 31:05 - Dissecting the Dallas Cowboys' Defensive Collapse 34:05 - The Seahawks Keep Winning Weird Games 36:30 - Is Baker Mayfield the NFL MVP Right Now? 39:31 - Sunday Night Football: The Chiefs Offense is BACK 44:13 - NFL Quick Hits: The Ravens' Historic Collapse 46:12 - What's Wrong with the Miami Dolphins? 48:54 - Outro—» Join Felix and Cody each Wednesday as we dive deep into the game we love!MatchQuarters is a reader-supported publication.

Minnesota came out swinging, but once Ohio State's defense locked things down in the red zone, the rest of Saturday night belonged to the Buckeyes. The defense was stifling; Carnell Tate and Julian Sayin went off; and Jeremiah Smith, Max Klare, and Bo Jackson all had solid games.
