Ohio State future football rivals, Buckeyes' coaching salaries and more

On this Monday Madness edition of Buckeye Talk, Doug Lesmerises and Nathan Baird wrap up with a modified version of Whatcha Watchin' and what the Big Ten failures in the NCAA Tournament tell us about Ohio State football.

But first (0:30) they discuss the new football schedule starting in the Big Ten in 2024 and what permanent rivals Ohio State should have. Who and how many? And what Big Ten games have to be protected? And what's the best way to work USC and UCLA into the league?

Then (36:28) the talk moves to the recent raises for the Ohio State assistant football coaches. What's the money balance on the staff and what does it tell us about the Buckeyes?

Finally (1:10:02), Doug and Nathan talk about Purdue losing as a No. 1 seed to a No. 16 seed in the tournament, and the Boilermakers continued shortcomings on the national scene. How would Ohio State handle similar failures in this day and age and what does that say about the two schools?

Thanks for listening to Buckeye Talk.
