On The Kenny & JT Show we're joined by @OhioStateFB beat writer @SteveHelwagen from Bucknuts.com as football's Spring Practice is underway, and, today is Ohio State's Pro Day.

There is much debate on how the future of the College Football Playoff will and should look. On today's show, Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle give their opinions on how the CFP should be shaped moving forward, in terms of how many teams make the cut, how the seeding is determined and all the rest. We also look ahead to spring ball which is less than a month away for the Buckeyes. Also, unfortunately it appears as though Steve Helwagen was correct at this time last year when he told then-athletic director Gene Smith that OSU's basketball program was "dead on the vine." Smith didn't like the comment, but the truth hurts sometimes. The Buckeyes just suffered one of the most embarrassing losses we can remember, 70-49 at home against a bad Northwestern team. But don't worry, the vast majority of the show is about Buckeye football. That is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.

Ohio State's new defensive coordinator -- whoever that might end up being -- will inherit just three returning starters. Those three players are very good -- Caleb Downs, Davison Igbinosun and Sonny Styles -- but this will be the first time in recent memory that the Buckeyes will have eight new starters on the defensive side of the ball. What will the depth chart look like for OSU this fall on defense? Dave Biddle and Steve Helwagen delve into that and much more on the Wednesday 5ish.

Steve Helwagen of Bucknuts.com returns to the Ticker to help preview the Buckeyes-Vols playoff game and check the temperature for Day if they get upset.
Ohio State landed in what appears to be a very favorable No. 6 spot in the College Football Playoff rankings, which were released Tuesday night. The Buckeyes will likely drop a spot or two in the final rankings, but they appear to be a lock to host a first-round playoff game. Also, is this the weirdest signing day ever? College football managed to shoehorn in a signing day on Dec. 4, which is one of the strangest decisions we can remember. We'll keep saying this until we're blue in the face: the early signing period should be the final week of July, right before training camp begins. The good news is this means the media will get a chance to speak with OSU head coach Ryan Day today. It is the signing day press conference, but of course many questions will be asked about the Buckeyes' offensive and special teams debacle in their loss to Michigan last Saturday. Dave Biddle and Steve Helwagen delve into all of that and more on the Wednesday 5ish.

Reading between the lines, it sure sounds like changes are on the way for Ohio State's defense following its disappointing performance at Oregon. Not only did head coach Ryan Day say on Tuesday that he has been more involved with the defense, but he agreed with Nick Saban who referred to the Buckeyes' pass rush as "antiquated." Can OSU find more of a modern pass rush? Or anything that is markedly more effective than what they've been producing? Also, who would be the next man up at safety if Lathan Ransom has to miss some time? The three-man backfield of Steve Helwagen, Patrick Murphy and Dave Biddle discuss that and much more on the Wednesday 5ish.
