New Year’s Eve brought a special guest and a special rewind on The Tim May Show feat. Clay Hall.

Former Ohio State Buckeyes standout and Super Bowl–caliber defender turned vascular surgeon Simon Fraser joined Tim and Clay to relive Ohio State’s unforgettable 2002 national championship win over the Miami Hurricanes.

Fraser—who anchored one of the most dominant defenses in Buckeye history—breaks down how that legendary 2002 unit stacks up against today’s No. 1 defense in the country, currently residing in The Shoe. The conversation spans scheme, toughness, preparation, leadership, and how elite defense translates across eras.

And yes… the show literally paused as the on-call doctor stepped away to consult on a patient—because when duty calls, it really calls.

Football history, modern analysis, and real-life perspective—all in one memorable New Year’s Eve episode.
