No Julian Sayin, No Problem? Luke Fahey's First Start for Ohio State vs USC

THE Ohio State Buckeyes begin a new chapter Saturday in Los Angeles, facing USC without star quarterback Julian Sayin. Can Luke Fahey step in and lead the Buckeyes in his first start? With Fahey returning to his home state for a high-profile game, Dave Holmes, Cardale Jones and Beanie Wells discuss whether the homecoming will fuel him—or add pressure—and whether Ohio State should give Tavien St. Clair a chance, too. Plus, Ryan Day has shared Cardale Jones’ Ohio State story with the team—but how many current Buckeyes know who Cardale and Beanie Wells are? The show also pays its respects to Ohio State legend Nick Mangold and takes a look around the Big Ten, including Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa. The crew discusses who’s on the hot seat, whether someone can win at the University of Maryland, and the red-hot Cleveland Browns and Deshaun Watson.
