The Bill and Doug Show: Ohio State Football Talk · Ohio State Around the Shoe: Buckeyes' tough football schedule & what to make of their 9.5 win total · 23 Mar 2026 podcast

That's kind of been the MO under Dan Lanning for the last few years at least, win the games you're supposed to win, lose the ones you're not, maybe even win one that you're not supposed to like Ohio State in the regular season.

But the only team that's beaten him the last two years are the teams that won the national title.

And I know it's not the easiest schedule in the world, but let me pull it up here just to be sure.

I mean, they're not going to lose at Oklahoma State.

I don't think they lose at USC, and if they do, we're going to have a completely different discussion about the Big Ten race if USC wins that game.

At Illinois will be tricky.

They get Michigan at home, and they get Washington at home.

Like, I think that's 11-1 season.

I mean, the USC part's interesting because like Lincoln Riley and probably the whiteout three time zones away.

Just, like, forget who's coaching or playing for Penn State.

Do you trust him?

And he's also got to go back to Rutgers.

And I don't say that like they're going to lose to Rutgers, but, like, you look at Lincoln Riley when he's got to go two-plus time zones, it's not good at all.

And that's independent of, like, the real tough teams they've got to play next year, right?

So I just think there's so many moving parts with USC that it's just very –

If only – and this is a big if because I thought Illinois thoroughly outplayed them for 60 minutes.

But if they win that Illinois game last year and they go 10-2 with road losses and Notre Dame and Oregon, they're in the playoff and we're looking at this program completely differently.

And yet they didn't do that against Illinois.

And they almost lost at home against Iowa.

And they still showed – like the win at Nebraska was like this milestone win for them because it was their first, what, Big Ten road win other than UCLA or something like that?
