It’s the college football offseason folks, and that means there’s a ton of lists and rankings out there. Heck, we’re not throwing any shade because we’ve also gotten into the act and will continue to do so.
However, we’ve been following ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg and his future rankings pieces that tries to project ahead for the next three years (2022, 2023, and 2024). He already had Ohio State extremely high in his future quarterback rankings, and he’s back to take a look at the offensive side of the ball.
If you are interested in what Rittenberg says about the entire 25-team list, you can get a peek at it yourself by heading on over to ESPN (subscription required), but we’re just going to focus on the rankings and what he says about YOUR Ohio State Buckeyes.
So, where does Rittenberg think Ohio State will be over the next three years when it comes to putting up yards and points? Pretty much where the Buckeyes have been for a while. Here’s what Rittenberg has to say and where OSU is ranked in his assessment.
As ususal, we unveil things by saving the best for the last.
