We are just three days away from Ohio State's season-opener against Akron and the news continues to pour in. On Tuesday, Ryan Day informed the media that third-year sophomore Tegra Tshabola will be the starting right guard and junior Sonny Styles will be the starting weak-side linebacker. Also, Day revealed that offensive coordinator Chip Kelly will coach from the press box and not the field this season. The BM5 is a fan of that development. Also, what did we think of the Netflix doc on Connor Stalions? Is it possible that a show that was attempting to make him a sympathetic figure actually made him look worse? All of that and much more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish as Dave Biddle flies solo.

We have reached game week, friends! Ohio State will kick off its highly-anticipated 2024 season in just five days against visiting Akron (3:30 p.m. ET; CBS). On today's show, Dan Rubin and Dave Biddle are going to make five predictions for the Buckeyes' season (including one that involves OSU and college football teams in general). The predictions will stem from these questions from Biddle: 1. Barring injury, will Tegra Tshabola start every game for the Buckeyes this season? 2. What post-regular-season honors, if any, will Will Howard earn? (Examples, All-Big Ten first/second/third/fourth-team, Heisman winner/finalist, All-American, etc.) 3. Who will lead Ohio State in rushing and how many yards will they have? 4. Who will lead the Buckeyes in sacks and how many will they have? 5. Name the 12 teams that will make the College Football Playoff, beginning with the champions of the Power 4 conferences. And then Rubin will add five predictions of his own. That and much more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

We are just eight days away from Ohio State's season-opener and Jonah Booker and Dave Biddle tackle the main topics as camp wraps up for the Buckeyes. How will the offensive line perform this season? What did JBook think about Justin Frye's comments on OL recruiting last night? All of that and much more is coming your way on the Friday 5ish.

Can you smell it? We can. It's football season. High school football season, to be specific, and it smells great. Who better to get the new campaign kicked off than The Dean and Grand Poobah? There is nobody better. And we got 'em. Bill Kurelic and Mark Porter let you know where they'll be this weekend as the season of talent exposure begins. We will do our best all season to keep you more informed than anyone on Ohioans headed to Ohio State and Ohioans with a chance to do so.

Caleb Downs and Lathan Ransom are going to form one of the best safety tandems in college football this season. It sparked a question that we have been pondering: When was the last time Ohio State had a safety combination this good? Also, is the other shoe going to drop at Michigan relatively soon, or should fans not get their hopes up since the NCAA moves at a very slow pace? Matt Baxendell and Dave Biddle also take a look at biggest developments from the Buckeyes' training camp and more. All of that and more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

What have been the biggest storylines during Ohio State's training camp with the season opener just 12 days away? Well, there are the obvious developments such as Will Howard being named the starting quarterback. But what about beyond that? What have been some of the most interesting developments on both sides of the ball for the Buckeyes? Also, what in the world is going on with offensive line recruiting? Why isn't OSU offering more big guys up front since they cannot close the deal often enough with out-of-state O-linemen? Dan Rubin and Dave Biddle tackle that and much more on the Monday 5ish.

Now that we know Will Howard is Ohio State's starting quarterback, what do we expect from him? Also, how close is the battle for the No. 2 job between Devin Brown and Julian Sayin?

The Front Row asked. The Grand Poobah answered. Yep, we requested questions from our esteemed users and got great ones.  Then it was up to Mark Porter to provide equally excellent answers. They don't call him The Grand Poobah for nothing. While The Dean suns himself in a waterfront locale nestled in SEC country, Mark handled the workload of two men. From Chip Kelly's offensive tweaks to Demarion Witten's position choice to how the new Ohio league aligning Catholic schools will affect the landscape, all was tackled.

The media interviewed Ohio State offensive coordinator Chip Kelly and all five scholarship quarterbacks on Tuesday. It was quite the interesting day as many notable pieces of information were gleaned about the QBs, the offensive line and more. Speaking of the QBs, when will Ryan Day name his starter? And who will it be? Dave Biddle and Dan Rubin make their predictions on today's show, plus: * Will Howard has dropped about 15 pounds to 234 since arriving at Ohio State and is the fastest QB on the roster at 22.1 MPH. All five QBs run over 20 MPH, with Lincoln Kienholz second at 21.9 MPH. * We continue to hear good things about the way Julian Sayin is practicing -- and we saw it for ourselves during the first four practices of camp -- and he was also impressive in front of the media yesterday. So was Howard. Really, all five of the quarterbacks are very impressive young men. As for Sayin, if called upon this year as a true freshman, could he get the job done? * You will like this a lot: Regarding the Buckeyes' o
