I hate the SEC
Bill and Doug have always been my favorite on the osu beat because of their football knowledge, unbiased analysis, and professionalism when it comes to journalism. I can’t recommend these two more. The highest praise that I can give is these two have managed to win the heart of my (TUN graduate) gf who has previously been uninterested in football. Such great hosts with great chemistry. They seem like very genuine down to earth people as well
Doug has a unique ability to consider stories from different angles. He and Bill play well together. I’m sad that their other program, Kings of the North, didn’t have staying power, because it was also terrific.
Bill and Doug deliver preeminent Buckeye — and national college football — coverage (but scary-bad dining takes :)
They claim in a recent episode to have talked to Julian Sayin and imply that the interview is included in the episode “inside Ohio State practice”.
