Summary
Buckeye Weekly Podcast: What Will More QB Run Look Like for Ohio State in 2026? On this episode of the Buckeye Weekly Podcast, hosts Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr answer a listener question about what “more QB run” should look like for Ohio State this year, focusing on Julian Sayin. They discuss the importance of quarterbacks contributing on the ground—especially rushing for at least one touchdown—and how even a few timely scrambles or option pulls can extend drives, help in short-yardage and goal-line situations, and force defenses to account for the quarterback. They compare recent Ohio State quarterback rushing production (including sack-adjusted stats) to players like CJ Stroud, Kyle McCord, and Will Howard, reference examples like Dwayne Haskins, and debate realistic season highs, single-game rushing yard projections, touchdown totals, and a 200-yard season benchmark. 00:00 Welcome and Listener Questions 00:41 What More QB Run Means 02:27 Touchdowns and the Threat Factor 04:20 Strategic Use vs Texas 05:49 Last Season Rushing Context 06:49 Comparing QBs and Carry Limits 09:30 Haskins Example and Attempt Targets 11:04 Over Unders and Predictions 14:05 Wrap Up and Subscribe
