Once upon a time, a thousand years ago, Ohio State won a national title behind a besweatervested coach and a plucky freshman running back.

That coach was of course Jim Tressel, and the freshman running back was Maurice Clarett, who appears on today's Dubcast!
Nobody is better suited to break down the crux of Ohio State's postseason success like Clarett is. Make no mistake, Ohio State won a national championship on the back of a running game centered around another young running back, and Mo C is here to provide the kind of perspective that very few people have.
And on the flip side of that, BTN's Taylor Rooks stops by to join in our collective sigh of relief that the Big Ten might actually, you know, be kind of good and fun to talk about. It's one thing to be a watercooler hero when it comes to the Buckeyes, but Taylor lives for this stuff and it shows.
And of course I would be remiss if I neglected to mention Matt Finkes with Finkes On Football. Like us, Matt is pretty well whupped from the weekend, but he graciously offers his analysis of how the game shook out.
We tried to keep this one tidy, so no Ask Us Anything this week, but keep sending us your questions on Twitter or by emailing us here, and we'll get right to 'em next time.

40:50 If anyone can match your enthusiasm for an Ohio State 'ship, it's Taylor Rooks. She definitely brings the heat.

That does it for another Eleven Dubcast! We'll be back next week to put football on ice with a big ol' recap and then grudgingly look forward to some basketball. Join us then!
