Ohio State spring game 2018: Preview

QUARTERBACKS — This will mark the first spring game since 2012 without J.T. Barrett on the roster. The game should offer a showcase for quarterbacks Dwayne Haskins, Joe Burrow and Tate Martell as they look to become the Buckeyes’ next starting quarterback. Class of 2018 signee Matthew Baldwin won’t be participating because of a knee injury sustained at the end of his high school career.

KICK RETURNS — Demario McCall’s potential has captured the interest of Buckeyes fans from the moment he arrived, and the spring game could finally be a chance for him to show what he can do. The Buckeyes have been using him on punt returns and kickoff returns in practice, and he’ll likely get a chance to show what he can do in front of a big crowd.

PLENTY OF STARS — With so many skill position players returning, the Buckeyes should have plenty of talent out on the field. And with young players often getting key reps, the spring game should offer a good chance for fans to not only see established playmakers but also the stars of the future.

REDUCED CAPACITY — Because of construction on the west side of Ohio Stadium, the stadium won’t be at full capacity for the spring game. Ohio State’s spring game attendance eclipsed 100,000 in 2017 and nearly did so in 2016, but the capacity will be closer to 80,000 for this year’s game.
