Silver Bullets Podcast: Tennessee rewind and College Football Playoff thoughts

The Buckeyes volunteered Tennessee to leave the College Football Playoff quickly.
Ohio State more than took care of business against the Tennessee Volunteers Saturday night in the first round of the College Football Playoff. Despite reports that the stadium was going to be half-filled with Tennessee fans, Buckeye fans showed out and were loud, spurring on an offense and a defense that clicked almost the entire 60 minutes.
We opened this week’s show with a letter from a listener, and then discussed the Ohio State transfer portal news from the previous week. Had we recorded Monday night instead of Sunday afternoon, there would have been a lot more arrivals to discuss. As it is, we talked about two more departures and the landing spots of two previous Buckeye defectors.
Following the Ohio State news, we talked about the other College Football Playoff matchups, what home field advantage meant in the first playoff games on campuses, and the lazy narrative of which teams do or do not “belong.” If wins and losses don’t matter because of schedules being weaker or stronger, we’re not sure how to address that, because teams must play their schedules. The solution to being left out, as always, is win your games.
Finally, we broke down the 42-17 Ohio State win that could have been more lopsided against the Vols. The offensive line held up much better than expected, the play-calling was aggressive and inventive, and...well, where was this a couple of weeks ago? We checked in on our picks to click and our score predictions to see how well we anticipated things.
We also touched on the broadcast, which at times seemed to be gaslighting us about how many Tennessee fans were among the 105,000 people in Ohio Stadium, and at times seemed to be painting many Ohio State fans as insane for suggesting the team’s head football coach should occasionally beat its greatest rival, especially when the Buckeyes have the much better roster.
We would love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email. Any questions directed toward us will be answered on our next show.

BOOOMs!!! Ohio State adds multiple commitments via the transfer portal

Former Purdue tight end Max Klare | via Marc Lebryk, USA TODAY SPORTS, 247Sports
Ohio State received some early Christmas gifts in the form of three additions through the transfer portal.
Ohio State is 1-0 in the new expanded College Football Playoff following a more than impressive 42-17 victory over Tennessee. Ohio State will now prepare for its next opponent, Oregon, which it is all-too familiar with as the Ducks beat Ohio State early in the regular season.
The Buckeyes will be taking on Oregon in the Rose Bowl on New Years Day, and with the game being just days away, many of the headlines surrounding the Ohio State football team will focus on the game, understandably so. However, Ryan Day and the Ohio State coaching staff are constantly recruiting, and the Buckeyes will also be making recruiting headlines daily.
Monday was no different, as Ohio State received a trio of early presents this holiday season.
The ever-growing transfer portal has become both a blessing and a curse for college football coaches across the nation. For Ohio State on Monday, it was much more the latter as the Buckeyes saw three transfer targets commit to the university.
The first was former West Virginia running back CJ Donaldson. Donaldson is considered the No. 102 transfer portal prospect and No. 6 running back per 247Sports, and will provide Ohio State with much-needed veteran talent at the running back position.
Donaldson played for West Virginia for three seasons, and started the last two. He amassed 2,058 yards and 30 touchdowns on 421 carries, good for an average of 4.9 yards per attempt.
Ohio State will be losing senior back TreVeyon Henderson following the end of the season, and his teammate Quinshon Judkins very well could decide to forego his senior season in favor of the NFL. If this were to occur, the Buckeyes would only return freshmen James Peoples and Sam Williams-Dixon, and now Donaldson.
Ohio State wasn’t done with the BOOMs though, as shortly following Donaldson announcement, former Idaho State defensive edge target Logan George announced his commitment to the Buckeyes.
George visited with Ohio State this past weekend, and the visit apparently went as well as possible. The Buckeyes offered George just last week, and the defensive edge was quick to decide he wanted to come to Columbus. George chose Ohio State over the likes of Boise State, Georgia Tech, Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Virginia and Wisconsin.
This past season, George accounted for 57 total tackles, 19.5 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks for Idaho State. He will also bring much needed depth to the defensive edge position and could fight for a starting role with the Buckeyes losing Jack Sawyer and JT Tuimoloau to the NFL Draft following the season.
However, quite possibly the biggest addition for Ohio State on Monday was when former Purdue tight end Max Klare announced his commitment to the Buckeyes.
The redshirt sophomore played the last two season for the Boliermakers, and was one of the best tight ends in the Big Ten in the 2024 season, catching 51 passes for 685 yards and four touchdowns. As a result of his success, he is considered the No. 30 transfer portal prospect and is the No. 1 tight end per 247Sports.
The Buckeyes were not alone in their pursuit of the prolific pass-catcher, as he also had scholarship offers from the likes of Texas, Texas A&M, Michigan and Louisville. He will also will immediately be able to fight for playing time next season for the Buckeyes who will not be short of talent at the position. Ohio State will be likely be bringing back Bennett Christian and Jelani Thurman, and will see freshmen Max LeBlanc, Nate Roberts and Brody Lennon all also join the team.
Despite the amount of talent returning, anytime you can add the No. 1 player at a position through the transfer portal, you take it, and Ohio State did just that.

Quick Hits
- Following Monday’s haul, the Buckeyes have now earned four commitments through the transfer portal this winter, and the team may be close to adding another. On Monday, Steve Wiltfong of On3 submitted a prediction in favor of Ohio State for former Rice offensive tackle Ethan Onianwa. Offensive tackle has been a position the Buckeyes have made of great importance in the transfer portal, and Onianwa is considered the No. 131 transfer portal prospect and is the No. 13 offensive tackle per 247Sports.
