On "The Lunatic Fringe," Land-Grant Holy. Lan's co-managing editors Matt Tamanini and Gene Ross dive into the spicier topics and takes surrounding Ohio State sports. On this new episode of the Land-Grant Podcast Network's "Lunatic Fringe," Gene Ross and Matt Tamanini continue to marvel at Ryan Day's evolution into a card-carrying member of the Lunatic Fringe in the lead-up to No. 1 Ohio State's trip to Champaign to take on No. 17 Illinois. Despite Day's insistence that the Illini are "a top-10" opponent, Gene and Matt look at Illinois' numbers to decide whether or not they think Bert and Company actually have a shot to challenge the defending champs. Then, as always, both Gene and Matt fire off the hottest take they have for the game and give their respective score predictions.

Throughout the year, Matt Tamanini and Jami Jurich will be getting into all things Ohio State and college football on "No Fall Weddings." On the new episode of Land-Grant Podcast Network’s “No Fall Weddings,” Jami Jurich and Matt Tamanini discuss the question that has likely been on the minds of many Buckeye, Duck, and Hurricane fans in recent weeks... Are there any more than three quality teams in college football this season? For situations like this, Jami has a novel idea, instead of the College Football Playoff having 12 teams every year, each season should have a dynamic selection process in which the committee determines the size of the playoff based on how many teams actually deserve a shot at the national title. Then, as always, the duo breaks down their top-12 teams in college football, makes their chaos picks of the week, and recommends something from outside the world of college football that you should check out.

Throughout the year, the Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from ⁠⁠Ohio State⁠⁠ press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today’s episode of “Land-Grant Uncut,” we are bringing you unedited audio from Ryan Day's Tuesday, Sept. 30 media availability. In his weekly chat with the Buckeye beat, the head coach previews Ohio State's Saturday matchup with Illinois. Even though the Illini is currently ranked No. 17, but Day believes they are a top-10 team in the country. The head coach also discussed possible red-shirts for some high-profile players, Kenyatta Jackson's injury status, the progression of Julian Sayin, and more. As always, the press conference audio supplied by Ohio State struggles when it comes to media members asking questions, the quality isn't always great. However, the audio quality from the podium is crystal clear.

Minnesota came out swinging, but once Ohio State’s defense locked things down in the red zone, the rest of Saturday night belonged to the Buckeyes. The defense was stifling; Carnell Tate and Julian Sayin went off; and Jeremiah Smith, Max Klare, and Bo Jackson all had solid games. Ryan Day was also able to get plenty of depth players a few snaps in the fourth quarter. We look back at the big plays, moments, and players from Ohio State’s 42-3 win over the Golden Gophers, check on our picks to click to see how they performed, and review our game predictions from last week to see how close we were. (We were pretty close!) After our Ohio State-Minnesota rewind, we looked around the rest of the Big Ten to see how other teams made out in Week 6. Penn State had a bad weekend and Washington nearly did as well, having to come a long way back in the fourth quarter to win at Maryland. Illinois won big, Wisconsin put up a fight for a while but simply couldn’t score points in Ann Arbor. Michigan State couldn’t get stops in Lincoln, and the Spartans had a Sparty No! moment. We also looked ahead to the matchups this weekend, and aside from Ohio State’s trip to Champaign, we’ll be keeping an eye on Oregon-Indiana. Finally, we previewed the Illibuck game coming up Saturday at noon. The Fighting Illini are a formidable opponent, especially at home, and they have an offense that can test Matt Patricia’s defense. We gave you the Illini players to watch and discussed the matchup. We also selected our picks to click for the Buckeyes at Illinois and made our predictions for what the final score will be after a hard-fought game at Memorial Stadium this weekend. We would love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email at [email protected].

As always, thanks for listening! 0:20 - The Buckeyes returned home to face a scrappy Golden Gophers squad. Minnesota came out of the gate hot but couldn’t sustain anything after its opening drive. The Buckeyes cruised. 24:34 - UCLA stunned Penn State with an offensive explosion against Jim Knowles’ defense. Michigan, Illinois, Washington, Nebraska, and Northwestern (the latter in non-conference play) joined the Buckeyes as winners over the weekend. 52:28 - We look ahead to Luke Altmyer and his command of a versatile Illinois offense, as the Buckeye secondary will be put to the test on the road Saturday.

On the latest Off-Script Ohio presented by Land-Grant Holy Land, Cole VanWiechen and Joey Gertz broke down Ohio State’s most complete performance of the season in our opinion, a 42–3 dismantling of Minnesota that left little doubt about where the Buckeyes stand heading into October. The passing game, defense, and special teams all clicked at once. After several conservative offensive outings, Ryan Day and Brian Hartline finally opened things up, and freshman quarterback Julian Sayin responded with his most confident performance yet. He finished with over 300 passing yards and four touchdowns, spreading the ball to a rotation of dynamic targets who made Minnesota’s secondary look overmatched. Carnell Tate was nearly unguardable, racking up nine catches for 183 yards and a score. Jeremiah Smith added seven receptions for 62 yards and two touchdowns, while tight end Max Klare had his most productive game of the season with five catches for 63 yards. Sayin’s command and timing stood out, particularly on play-action and third-down situations, where Ohio State converted at a season-high rate. Defensively, the Buckeyes remain suffocating. After allowing an early drive into the red zone, Matt Patricia’s group slammed the door, holding Minnesota to just 162 total yards. The Gophers never established any rhythm, managing only 68 rushing yards and failing to complete a pass over 25 yards. Linebackers Arvell Reese and Sonny Styles were everywhere, combining for 15 tackles and setting the tone physically. Across the country, chaos reshaped the playoff landscape. Seventh-ranked Penn State was stunned by winless UCLA in a 42–37 shocker, Florida took down No. 9 Texas 29–21, and Oregon continued its unbeaten run with a win that positions them as Ohio State’s likely Big Ten title game opponent. Miami also strengthened its playoff case with a gritty 28–22 win over Florida State. Next up for Ohio State is a home matchup with No. 17 Illinois, a 5–1 team fresh off wins over USC and Purdue. The Illini have quietly become one of the Big Ten’s most efficient passing teams, led by Luke Altmeyer’s 12 touchdown passes and zero interceptions through six games. Still, their secondary has been below average, ranking 115th nationally in passing defense, an area the Buckeyes will undoubtedly look to exploit. As Cole and Joey discussed, the matchup to watch will be Altmeyer against Ohio State’s relentless pressure, and how Illinois adjusts to the Buckeyes’ offensive tempo. With Jeremiah Smith and Julian Sayin both climbing into the top five of Heisman odds and safety Caleb Downs continuing to anchor a defense that leads the nation in scoring allowed, the Buckeyes look every bit the part of a national title favorite.

The latest episode of Land Grant Holy Land’s Horseshoe Hangover is here! Join Alex Frank and Ryan Weckstein as they help you get through any lingering feelings you may have from the weekend while recapping Ohio State’s latest game and looking ahead to the next game. The No. 1 Buckeyes absolutely knocked out the Minnesota Golden Gophers Satrday night under the lights in The Shoe. Alex and Ryan discuss the biggest plays and takeaways from another dominant performance from the best team in the country. Julian Sayin is quickly becoming one of the Big Ten's and country's most prolific quarterbacks. What's working the best for him? Can he be even more prolific? He looks like a quarterback that can be. Ohio State's defense is incredibly dominant. Alex explains how a comment made Chris Simms made makes the Buckeyes similar to an NFL dynasty that also had a really great defense. Alex and Ryan then preview the Buckeyes game at No. 17 Illinois Saturday afternoon and if there should be a level of concern for Buckeyes fans facing a really experienced Fighting Illini team.
