Ohio State doesn’t begin the Big Ten portion of its schedule until it faces Indiana in Bloomington in the third week of the season.
On Saturday, though, defensive line coach Larry Johnson believes the Buckeyes will get a taste of what their conference feels like when they welcome the Cincinnati Bearcats to Ohio Stadium.
“They're power football. They're really a Big Ten team. Really are,” Johnson said on Tuesday. “They run the football well. They have a really great scheme. Great offensive coordinator. Offensive line is big – they're young but they're big. Got some veteran guys there.
