On this Thursday Buckeye Talk Podcast, Doug Lesmerises, Nathan Baird and Stephen Means are joined by Richie Kyburz, a Buckeye Talk listener who won the Buckeye Talk NCAA Tournament bracket contest six months ago. A spot on the pod was one of the prizes and it took this long for Buckeye Talk to get itself together and get Richie on the show.
With Ohio State halfway through the regular season and off this week, this episode is handing out midseason awards and making a few predictions for the rest of the season. The rundown:
