POWER MOVE: Ohio State Buckeyes and Ryan Day LEVERAGE New Playoff Perk—Julian Sayin, Jeremiah Smith
Episode 1810
Sunday, 3 May, 2026
Ohio State Buckeyes eye a top-two seed in the new College Football Playoff format, unlocking the ability to choose their quarterfinal and semifinal bowl games. Could strategic site selection give Ryan Day’s squad a crucial edge in the postseason? Jay Stephens breaks down why this tweak amps up motivation for leaders like Jeremiah Smith and Julian Sayin, and explores which bowls could offer Ohio State the best path given travel and time zone advantages. Key topics include the Buckeyes’ grueling upcoming schedule, the potential psychological impact of bowl location, and spirited debate over College Football Playoff expansion. Jay Stephens critiques automatic qualifiers, proposes bold changes to selection criteria, and questions whether further expansion will dilute the playoff’s quality.
