out of the dispatch today... some interesting tidbits. 1. meyer says there are no further planned changes to the coaching staff. ex rutgers and tampa bay head coach greg schiano is replacing chris ash (hired as head coach at rutgers) as a co-coordinator on defense. 2. normally captains aren't named til fall practice in august. meyer says j.t. barrett, raekwon mcmillan and pat elflein have already been named captains to help guide what will be a very green (at least 16 new starters) team going thru off-season workouts leading up to the spring. 3. osu has applied to the ncaa for a 6th year of eligibility for wr corey smith, who broke his leg in the iu game in early october (game 5). 4. meyer said he was surprised that 9 underclassmen all declared for the draft. they were expecting 6 to make the move. he said powell (he'd be a 5th yr senior) was a surprise. didn't mention by name the other two; columnist rob oller took an educated guess at marshall (that would be mine too) and either bell or apple being the other two. 5. he was extremely positive about how this group, with so many knowing or considering leaving, bounced back from the msu loss to bury um and beat nd. talked about how they focused on their role, specifically mentioned bell and apple on special teams coverage (which was incredible in glendale) and elliott's blocking vs the irish, how high caliber their play continued to be. 6. looking at the '16 schedule, i'm wondering if any of the expected top 25 teams will be playing two or more of this year's playoff participants (osu plays 2), or 2+ '15 league champs in their ooc schedule (bucks play 3). next year's road schedule will be the most difficult osu has played in quite a while. also the new 9-game league schedule starts, w/no bye week within the conference slate. back to back road trips to madison and state college, and again finishing the regular season w/sparty and tsun back to back. only 2 of the 12 '16 opponent did not play in a bowl this year, and half (6) of them won 10+ games. 9/3/16 bgsu 10-4/mac champ, bowl loss to ga southern 9/10/16 tulsa 6-7 bowl loss to va tech 9/17/16 @ okla 11-2/big 12 champ, playoff loss to clemson 9/24/16 open 10/1/16 rutgers 4-8 10/8/16 indiana 6-7/bowl ot loss to duke 10/15/16 @ wisconsin 10-3/bowl win over usc 10/22/16 @ psu 7-6/bowl loss to georgia 10/29/16 n'western 10-3/bowl loss to tennessee 11/5/16 nebraska 6-7/bowl win over ucla 11/12/16 @ maryland 3-9 11/19/16 @ msu 12-2/'15 big 10 champ, playoff loss to alabama 11/26/16 michigan 10-3/bowl win over florida 12/3/16 big 10 championship game  |

Hawk... |

I've mentioned before I like playing with numbers...
I subtracted our score for stats for each game we played this year, then figured the other team's average against everyone else. With the exception of Maryland, our D held every other team below their average, with an average of 13 points per game. Largest was against W Michigan, held them to 26 points below their average.
On the O side, we were held below average on three different occasions...we were -8 against N IL, -3 Vs Indie, & -8 against Sparty...even with that, we ended up +9, AVERAGE overall. We ended up #28 against TTUN, +22 against the Irish, +18 Vs Penn St, & +17 at VA Tech.
Not bad, IMHO...
