THE TOUGHEST QUARTERBACKS OHIO STATE WILL FACE IN 2019

Ohio State won't face a lot of elite quarterbacks this fall.

In years past, the Buckeyes have had to defend the likes of Trace McSorley, Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold and Deshaun Watson. The latter two came in postseason games, so there's a strong chance a matchup like that could exist for Ohio State down the road.

But looking at the regular season slate, there aren't a lot of names that could turn the heads of most fans. Here's a look at the most dangerous quarterbacks the Buckeyes face this fall.

PEYTON RAMSEY, INDIANA
Indiana's Peyton Ramsey has already done some work against the Buckeye defense.

In last year's 49-26 Ohio State victory, Ramsey carved the Buckeyes up with 322 passing yards and three touchdowns and no interceptions. A dual-threat like Ridder, Ramsey finished the 2018 season with 3,229 yards of total offense to go along with 24 touchdowns.

Have you been to IU? Nice campus. One road in, one road out. Be aware and of time zones. Almost missed kickoff last time I was there.

One time I left Dayton to go to a game in Bloomington and left 4 hours early so I could tailgate...got there at halftime. If at all possible, go there the night before and stay there.

They changed QBs again??? That's why they are Indiana.

They could've had a returning QB with Ramsey that had nearly two years experience but instead roll with a new starter lol

Some things of note regarding the new QB, Penix Jr:

  • Rs Fr
  • He's left handed
  • Dual threat guy 9 carries/79 yards so far

Just looking at him briefly, he doesn't strike me as a legit threat with his arm. I don't think he's seen the combination of pass rush and DB speed that he will on Saturday. also think Hafley will start showing some different looks and win the chess match big time.

They always seem to find a way to play OSU tough but it's a noon snoozer and their first big step up game.

I don't know where the voodoo is going to come from for them this year.

Against Ball State they weren't exactly impressive and he turned the ball over twice. Not exactly great for them and like you said this is one major step up for them but for us it's about like playing cincinnati again give or take.

For the life of me I don't get sitting a 2 yr starter to get Penix on the field as a first year starter. Ramsey was good to be honest and there couldn't have been that big of a difference. So going with the experience would've served them well.

They're not going to run the ball on this group and that's the only way they keep this within 17 points

I guess if you are IU HC you see the upside of Penix and and sell hope with that.

They went 5-7 the last two years with Ramsey. You know his ceiling.

I do think Ramsey is better but they finally got a decently high recruit at QB, you don't play him and he's likely gone. Reality of the world in which we live.

I mean I get it but just seems like they could've just found him a role. Oh well though doesn't matter either way really haha

So apparently, beating a winless FCS school 52-0 has inspired some confidence

The WR
“We’re gonna see how good we are next weekend against Ohio State,” Philyor said. “But they still gotta play us. Remember that.”

For Philyor, he came to Indiana for games like next weekend. Not just to play in the game, but to win it.

“We came (to Indiana) to beat teams like Ohio State,” Philyor said. “We didn’t come here to play them, we came here to beat them.”

The QB
After the game IU quarterback Michael Penix said about the Buckeyes “they’re just another team…we all put our clothes on the same way.”
