OHIO STATE COMPLETES THREE-WAY SWEEP OF BIG TEN AWARDS WITH COACH OF THE YEAR AND BOTH OFFENSIVE AND DEFENSIVE PLAYERS OF THE YEAR

It's a sweep.

The Buckeyes are the first team in Big Ten history to complete a three-way sweep of both conference player of the year awards and the coach of the year award.

This is also just the third time that one team has had both the offensive and defensive players of the year with the other two instances being Ohio State teams, as well.

The Buckeyes had both conference players of the year most recently in 2012 when Braxton Miller and John Simon each won their respective awards. It happened for the first time in 1996 with Orlando Pace earning the offensive award and Shawn Springs taking home the defensive award.

According to Michelle Steele of ESPN, Justin will be wearing "the same" knee brace that he wore late in The Game last week.

Earlier in the week it sounded like he was going to be wearing a bulkier brace that could limit his mobility, and that concerned me. Hopefully the above report is accurate, since he appeared to move reasonably well with that brace, at least on the first play with it on. I'm just hoping he's able to protect himself tonight, hopefully the offense won't need him to take off downfield very often, and I'm not expecting to see very many read options.

Edit - according to the 11W article, Justin will be wearing the bulkier brace that he finished The Game with last week. I am confused, did he wear 2 different braces last week?

After the aggravation of the injury, he came back in with what he called a “lineman’s brace”. I’ve seen others say that he was wearing a smaller brace before that; I didn’t notice one way or the other

That would explain it and makes sense; he must have been wearing a smaller one I wasn't aware of, since the knee got dinged vs Penn St, before he went out of The Game for a while.
