Episode Notes

The Texas game is the obvious crowned jewel of Ohio State's 2026 non-conference schedule, but the two games against Mid -American Conference opponents are just as important.

On this episode of Buckeye Talk, Stephen Means and Stefan Krajisnik take an early look at OSU's games against Ball State and Kent State. Two opponents that bookend a marquee matchup make for an interesting conversation on how to approach them.
