The Ohio State Buckeyes reportedly have bigger problems than just one loss after Purdue beat them by 29 points Saturday. 

Scott Roussel of Football Scoop cited sources who said there is “friction” between head coach Urban Meyer and athletic director Gene Smith. He also noted “there is a tension that hasn’t been present in recent years” inside the football program as a whole.

This comes after former Ohio State quarterback and current ESPN commentator Kirk Herbstreit appeared on the Dan Patrick Show and pointed to the “big problems” within the program as Meyer appears stressed and troubled on the sideline:
