QB J.T. Barrett

Head coach Urban Meyer has continued to elaborate about how young his Buckeye team is and how well they have performed through out the 2014 season. While there are certainly teams in the playoff race with more starters returning next season, you have to hand it to Coach Meyer for getting the Buckeyes where they are while having to operate with his third string quarterback. After Braxton Miller and J.T. Barrett were lost for the season with injury, the Buckeyes kept on rolling with Cardale Jones. All three of these signal callers are expected to be on the spring roster. What a quarterback race that should make. Ohio State has an incredibly capable offensive line and a typical defense full of blue chip performers. They will be a super heavy favorite to repeat as Big Ten champion. They will also be a heavy favorite to get back into the playoff system. They will also have one of their three quarterbacks in the Heisman race. That is a statement few could ever make in the history of the sport.
