1. Ohio State will have a 1000+ yard reciever.
2. Troy Smith will rush 500+ yards.
3. The 12 game schedule is only a plus for the Buckeyes.
4. The defensive line will finish the year a stronger unit than last years.
5. Pittman will reach 1500+ yards.
1. Fact- I think we will see a very open passing game, and with Teddy's speed and with him stepping into the #1 reciever roll, I think he'll get there. He's too fast and skilled, and with added maturity and dedication to being a better reciever, I don't see how he doesn't get to 1,000. On top of that, I don't see PSU, or Iowa's D being as good as last year, and we took Iowa to the woodshed this year.
2. Fact- as has been said, Troy only needs to average a little over 40 a game to get this. With his proclivity to improvise, and our "spread" offense, this is a no brainer.
3. Fact- Damn bye weeks.
4. uh...I'm gonna go with fiction- Regardless of the talent we have, they will not have the benefit of those three remarkable LB's we had this year. Now that said, if this young defense jells...it is not out of the realm of possibilty.
5. Fiction- The sheer depth we will have, plus the fact that we will probably be blowing some opponents out this year makes this unlikely. I see it going somewhere along the lines of...Pittman-1250, Smith-750, CWells-750, MWells-300, Haw-250. On top of that, not to be pessimistic, but if Antonio did sustain a hamstring injury...those can be VERY pesky, hopefully he'll rest up and let it heal.
