Although the next four weeks are a crucial time for Ohio State’s offensive line to build cohesiveness as a unit going into the season opener on Aug. 31, the Buckeyes aren’t rushing into setting their lineup up front.
That’s been evident in the first two practices of preseason camp that have been open to the media this August, in which the Buckeyes have opened practices with two different sets of starting offensive tackles. In the first practice on Friday, Joshua Alabi worked with the first-team offensive line at left tackle, while Nicholas Petit-Frere worked with the first-team offensive line at right tackle.
