On this week’s episode of The Script: A Podcast on THE Ohio State Buckeyes, Cardale Jones, Beanie Wells, and host Dave Holmes break down Ohio State’s statement win over the top-ranked Texas Longhorns. The Buckeyes pulled off a gritty 14–7 victory against Arch Manning and the preseason No. 1 team in the country. The defense impressed, holding Manning in check, but there are still questions about quarterback Julian Sayin’s consistency and the Buckeyes’ struggling run game. The crew shares why they’re confident Sayin will settle in and why the ground attack should bounce back with two favorable matchups ahead in Columbus. The guys also celebrate cashing their Week 1 parlay (thanks to Prime Sportsbook) and unveil a brand-new parlay for this weekend’s college football slate — one that could return nearly 6-to-1. Plus, Dave drops his lock for NFL opening week. Finally, powered by BuckeyeBasementSolutions.com, the crew tries to “fix” Ohio State’s rushing attack and dives into other programs in need of a repair job, including Alabama and North Carolina. And is the Bill Belichick era already nearing its end in Chapel Hill? #sports #football #ohiostate Thank you to our sponsors: PRIME SPORTSBOOK: https://www.primesportsbook.com/ Get a 100% deposit match up to $500 by using promo code SCRIPT.

On this week’s episode of The Script: A Podcast on THE Ohio State Buckeyes, Cardale Jones, Beanie Wells, and host Dave Holmes break down one of the most anticipated non-conference matchups in college football: Ohio State vs. Texas. The No. 1 Texas Longhorns, led by Arch Manning, travel to Columbus in what could be a season-defining showdown for the Buckeyes. Before kickoff, join us for our LIVE show in Columbus on Friday at 5PM ET right here on YouTube. We’ll be at the O-Zone Tailgate (doors open at 4PM ET) with food, drinks, and plenty of fun as we get Buckeye Nation ready for Saturday. Cardale, Beanie, and Dave know the challenge Texas presents, but they believe THE Ohio State Buckeyes are built for this moment. The guys explain why the Buckeyes can not only win but also cover the 2.5-point spread at home. As part of our Buckeye Basement Solutions segment, we break down the keys to stopping Arch Manning and finding ways to slow down the Longhorns’ dominant pass rush. From there, we take a trip around the college football landscape: Michigan’s QB choice: The team up north named Bryce Underwood their starter. Is this the right move now, or is it all about setting up for the future? Dave Portnoy vs. The Shoe: Was the Barstool Sports founder really banned from Ohio Stadium before FOX’s broadcast, or is this one big mix-up between FOX and Ohio State? We unpack the drama. SEC’s 9th game: After years of pushback, the SEC finally agreed to a nine-game conference schedule. Did the Big Ten force their hand? In our Prime Sportsbook betting segment, we break down the odds for Ohio State vs. Texas, including our very first Script Parlay—a play that could return nearly 6-to-1 if it hits. Will you fade us or follow us? And to close the show, we highlight one of the most jaw-dropping plays ever: a ridiculous catch by future Buckeye wide receiver Chris Henry Jr. The son of former NFL WR Chris Henry is already showing he’s going to be a star in Columbus, pairing up with Jeremiah Smith next season. It’s opening week across college football, one of the best non-conference games of the season, and the Buckeyes are right in the middle of it.

On the 10th episode of The Script: A Podcast on the Ohio State Buckeyes, Dave Holmes and Cardale Jones break down the new starting quarterback for the Buckeyes, Julian Sayin. Cardale shares what it feels like to be named the starter — and what it feels like to be on the other side. He’s been in both positions before. While he likes both Sayin and Lincoln Kienholz, Cardale trusts the Ohio State coaching staff made the right call for the present and future of the program. The conversation then shifts to rookie Buckeyes making noise in training camp. Will TreVeyon Henderson earn the starting role in New England? Could Josh Simmons be protecting Patrick Mahomes’ blindside? Is Emeka Egbuka set for a breakout season as injuries pile up in Tampa? Plus, we share the latest on Quinshon Judkins’ situation in Cleveland. Later, Dave and Cardale dive into the Michigan sign-stealing scandal. Cardale explains why he’s not as upset with Michigan for cheating as he is with the NCAA, which he calls inconsistent and ineffective. He fears the light punishment won’t deter future violations, but he also offers a simple solution for fixing the issue. The show wraps with our friends at Prime Sportsbook as we look at the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year race. Who has the best shot — Henderson, Egbuka, or even Shedeur Sanders? We break it all down on The Script: A Podcast on the Ohio State Buckeyes. #sports #football #ohiostate Thank you to our sponsors: PRIME SPORTSBOOK: https://www.primesportsbook.com/ Get a 100% deposit match up to $500 by using promo code SCRIPT.

Cardale Jones, Beanie Wells and Dave Holmes return with a new episode of The Script: A Podcast on the Ohio State Buckeyes. Training camp is in full swing in Columbus, and the quarterback battle is heating up. Many believe it’s Julian Sayin’s job to lose, but Lincoln Kienholz — recently named an Iron Buckeye for his offseason work — is making things interesting. Is there a real competition, or is it all for show? The guys break it down along with other major camp headlines. Later, they discuss some of the biggest athletic freaks to ever wear the scarlet and gray. Caleb Downs is already drawing NFL comparisons, but is it too soon to call him a top-five safety at the next level? Beanie and Cardale respectively push back on the hype while sharing stories about the most explosive athletes they ever played with — including a few names that could’ve gone pro straight out of high school. Jeremiah Smith tops Bruce Feldman’s annual Freaks List, and the crew agrees: he might be ready for the NFL right now. Plus, Cardale and Beanie reflect on the Buckeyes who would’ve thrived in the league if NCAA rules didn’t keep them in school. With help from our partners at Prime Sportsbook, the team looks at Michigan’s 8.5-win total and whether the Wolverines are primed for another step back. Spoiler: Beanie’s taking the under. Finally, we dive into the Terry McLaurin situation in Washington. After requesting a trade, is McLaurin making the right move at this stage in his career? The guys weigh in with support from Buckeye Basement Solutions.

Cardale Jones, Beanie Wells and Dave Holmes return with a new episode of The Script: A Podcast on the Ohio State Buckeyes. This week, Beanie, Cardale, and Dave reflect on the annual Special Skills Invitational held at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center, an event that gives young people with special needs the chance to meet current Buckeyes. While Cardale was hosting his own youth camp, Dave was on-site for the Invitational and shares what makes the event so meaningful. Plus, the guys look back on a dramatic end to Cardale’s celebrity charity softball game, where he delivered a walk-off home run to win it. Plus, Beanie reveals he might not be a baseball star—but he’s got skills on the pickleball court. Then, Summer is almost over and Cardale and Beanie compare today’s fall training camps to their playing days—and let’s just say, things have gotten a lot easier. And you don't want to miss Cardale's ESPYs story about ... Ronda Rousey?! In our partnership with Prime Sportsbook, the crew checks in on Buckeyes in the NFL: Will C.J. Stroud throw over 21 touchdowns? Can Justin Fields hit 15+? What can we expect from Marvin Harrison Jr. in his 2nd season? Those plus we will take a look at a couple more Buckeyes in the NFL's projected numbers. Finally, in this week’s Buckeye Basement Solutions segment, the guys dive into the situation with rookie Shemar Stewart and why he remains unsigned in Cincinnati. They also break down Garrett Wilson’s new contract and discuss why Terry McLaurin could be next in line for a deal.

Cardale Jones, Beanie Wells and Dave Holmes return for a new episode of "The Script," the podcast covering all things Ohio State Buckeyes. In this episode, the crew shares personal stories about Big Ten Media Days, including why neither Cardale nor Beanie ever attended during their playing careers. The discussion also touches on Ohio State’s approach to media training and how it prepares players for the spotlight. The group then reacts to the recent arrest of former Buckeyes running back Quinshon Judkins and discusses what it means for his future. As part of the Buckeyes Basement Solutions segment, the guys break down how Ohio State will handle the departure of all four starting defensive linemen and the exit of defensive coordinator Jim Knowles, who left for Penn State. They also assess whether Matt Patricia can make a bigger impact on the defensive side of the ball. Later in the episode, thanks to the show's partnership with Prime Sportsbook, the team examines NFL futures, focusing on the AFC North. Will Joe Burrow and the Bengals take the division from Lamar Jackson and the Ravens? Can the Browns contend? And is Burrow a better MVP bet than Jackson or Josh Allen?
