Can Ohio State build a mini-dynasty in the future, or did the Buckeyes miss their chance?

On this Tuesday Buckeye Talk, Doug Lesmerises, Nathan Baird and Stephen Means answer a great texter question:

Can Ohio State build a mini-dynasty in the future, or did the Buckeyes miss their window while Alabama, Clemson and Georgia capitalized on their chances?

The subject is addressed in three parts: offense, defense and the structure of the sport.

First (0:30), is there reason to believe that the Ohio State offense will continue to produce at a level that keeps the shot at a mini-dynasty alive?

Second, (22:35) on the defensive side, can the Buckeyes improve their recruiting and development enough to make it possible?

Finally (54:01) there's a look at the missed opportunities in the past for an OSU mini-dynasty (Doug identifies five eras) and then the talk turns to the 12-team playoff and whether it makes it more or less likely for an OSU mini-dynasty.
