Well, what else can you say? Barging into the inaugural College Football Playoff on a rebuilt offensive line and a third-string quarterback means Urban Meyer is going to get whatever he wants from Santa today.

Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thanks for being witty, insightful, sometimes deranged and for all of your favs, likes, retweets and everything else you all do to support this independent site and make this community so great.

Our gift to you today is footage from our Gold Pants special that aired earlier this month on Time Warner Sports Channel. First up is the roundtable segment featuring Buckeye All-American defensive end Matt Finkes, our own Ramzy Nasrallah and Chris Lauderback, and me.

I think we got off to a nervous start – seriously, I'm good at like two things in life, sleeping and math, but the bright lights put my brain on lock, rendering me unable to even divide a two-digit number by two – but I think we hit our groove after settling in. This segment actually produced 44 minutes of tape, but it was cut to 15 for the special, and probably for the better.

This segment features interviews conducted by host Marisa Contipelli and Buckeye greats, taped on location at the Gold Pants Social in late November. I was born without the sales gene, so I probably never do this event justice when spreading the word about it, but if you can make one of these, do so.

Merry Christmas, Buckeye fans.
