Five predictions with Ohio State's season-opener five days away

Bucknuts Morning 5: An Ohio State athletics podcast

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.
