How a Head-to-Head Matchup of Buckeyes vs. Buckeyes Could Stack Up This Season

Once upon a time, Ohio State’s coaching staff used to draft teams for its annual spring football game.

The Buckeyes have since eschewed that practice in favor of matching up the first-team offense against the first-team defense, just as they typically do in practice, but what if they were to play an actual competitive game between players on this year’s roster?

As we look ahead to the upcoming Ohio State football season, Eleven Warriors’ Dan Hope and Colin Hass-Hill decided to participate in that exercise, drafting players at each position on offense and defense to form 22-man rosters that could hypothetically go against one another, with the goal of ultimately forming the best possible lineups.
