Ohio State beat Akron 59-7 on Saturday in a game that was most interesting than just another blowout by the Buckeyes of an overmatched MAC team. On this postgame Buckeye Talk podcast, Doug Lesmerises, Nathan Baird and Stephen Means address three primary areas: The play of Kyle McCord, who started as C.J. Stroud rested his aching shoulder, and what McCord's night means for the future of the QB position. The pass rush that led to nine sacks of Akron. How much of that showed that the defense could be after three games of not getting after the passer? The blowup on the sideline of linebacker K'Vaughan Pope, who went to the locker room and then tweeted a derogatory message about Ohio State during the game. There are also some quick thoughts on Chris Olave's lack of targets the past two games, and Clemson's loss to North Carolina State. Thanks to listening to another pod episode from cleveland.com.
