Ohio State is scheduled to play at Oregon on Sept. `12. That's just one week after the Buckeyes open at home against Bowling Green, and within the time frame of a state health order suggesting fans should not attend mass events or that those events should be cancelled.

The space between now and the kickoff at Autzen allows for plenty of progress in the battle against COVID 19.

The NFL announces its schedule for the coming season.

The Bengals have a winnable opener that could put Joe Burrow against Justin Herbert.

The Browns get a tough draw, getting a road trip to Baltimore out of the game.

Cincinnati will play on the road at Cleveland on Thursday night in Week 2. 

Cleveland better have a playoff berth sewn up before December, given that four of its last five games are on the road and the home game is against the Ravens.

Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh has a plan to return college players who declare for the NFL Draft and don't get selected to return to school.

OSU wrestling coach Tom Ryan joins the show to discuss how his team is coping with being barred from campus until at least June 1.

Ryan has a new book coming out, called, Chosen Suffering. There will be a Facebook Live event on May 17 to assist in the launch.
