Matt Patricia’s Future, Buckeyes Basketball Road Tests & Bracket Talk | Buckeye Blitz

Jeff “Tito” Thitoff breaks down the biggest Ohio State storylines on this episode of The Ohio State Buckeyes Daily Blitz Podcast.

The show opens with a deep dive into the biggest lingering football question for the Buckeyes: Will Matt Patricia return as defensive coordinator? Jeff explains why confidence is growing that Patricia will stay in Columbus, why continuity matters after a defensive turnover, and how NFL interest—especially potential connections involving Tom Brady and the Las Vegas Raiders—could factor into the conversation.

From there, the focus shifts to a pivotal night for Ohio State Buckeyes basketball. On the men’s side, Ohio State heads to Maryland in a must-have Big Ten road game as the Buckeyes try to solidify their NCAA Tournament résumé. Jeff reacts to the latest bracketology, discusses bench production, recent injuries, and why this matchup looms large with games against Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue, and Virginia still ahead.

The women’s team also takes center stage, as No. 9 Ohio State travels west to face No. 24 Washington in a ranked Big Ten showdown. Jeff examines the Buckeyes’ tournament positioning, why road wins matter for seeding, and how Kevin McGuff has balanced rotation, rebounding, and scoring leadership during another strong season.

From football stability to basketball urgency, it’s a full Buckeye breakdown you don’t want to miss.
