Ohio State College Football 2024 Preview: What’s the Situation?

Ryan Day is 32-1 vs. teams not named Michigan in the regular season.  People want him fired for going 0-3 vs. Michigan. Sports fans are nuts!  
  

2024 Ohio State NCAAF AREAS TO WATCH:

Ohio St “slumped” to 4.6 per carry last year.  I have the # going back over the 5.0 mark.  Kyle McCord is out and Will Howard is in at QB.  Interceptions needs to come down. 

I’m not worried about any other offensive area, as the theme here is stay the course, with four OL starters returning.  The defense also saw many projected NFL players return to Columbus.  They will have one of the best pass D’s in the country, and remember, they allowed just over 11 points per game a year ago. 

The PK is very good, but replacements are needed elsewhere.  Unfortunately, they’ve chosen not to have a dedicated coordinator this year.

11-1, and with a better turnover ratio, maybe a perfect 12-0.  Ohio St joins Georgia has the top two teams in the NCAA.

2024 Ohio State Football Schedule and Games to Watch

Here are the games that Ohio St “could” be challenged: 10/5 hosting Iowa.  That only happens if Ohio St is turnover-prone, or the Iowa defense and/or special team unit dominates.  10/12 at Oregon.  Day lost hosting Oregon in ’21 (-14.5) and these are the top two Big Ten teams.  11/2 at PSU. 

Ohio St has won 11 of the last 12, but many have been close, with PSU finding ways to lose (return game, blocked kicks, fumbles).  11/30 hosting Michigan.  In reality, I don’t see this happening in ’24.  

Ohio State 2024 Football Expert HANDICAPPING TIP

 I usually do not get involved in their games.  If they are able, Day would love to run up the score on Michigan.
