I love, love, love Big Games. Even though it was a loss, one of my favorite Ohio State football memories came when I was living in Japan and teaching English to junior high kids, feverishly refreshing the score of the Ohio State/USC game on my phone during a school event. I was thousands of miles away from the game, and it was mid-morning my time, but I still felt the excitement of a marquee matchup halfway around the world.
Last year was great too, even though the opponent wasn't quite as significant as what we'll see on Saturday. And to that end, Beau and I talk about the big time ramifications for this game, who we expect to step up and show the nation what they've got, and how the mental matchup between Big Game Bob (a nickname that's now more sarcastic than anything else) and Urban Meyer (who I've been trying to nickname "The Pope" but for some reason it just hasn't stuck) will shake out.
Plus, Ask Us Anything (which you can do either via e-mail or Twitter) tackles the important questions, and Beau asks you, yes you, a question about how to handle some particularly bothersome turkeys. Murder is not an option. Sorry.
0:00- Tulsa happened. We try not to dwell too much on the game that was, mostly because... meh. It's hard to extrapolate too much from a game that featured a rain delay as its most interesting element.
12:49- The Big One. In this wide-ranging conversation, we look at the matchup from a football perspective, and also get into the minds of Bob Stoops and Urban Meyer.
39:30- Ask Us Anything turns into Tell Us Anything because Beau needs to get some turkeys off his damn lawn and the situation has become critical. He's about to resort to paintballs, people! HE NEEDS YOUR HELP!
And that is the Dubcast for this week. Please don't forget to rate us on iTunes, and leave a comment or two if you have any suggestions for us. This is make or break time, so we'll see you next week to talk about how the Buckeyes fared in Norman.
