I"ll go out on a limb and say they run the table. Every game is going to be their bowl game.

Defense is strong and are going to be turned loose. They'll give the offense turnovers and good field position. Special teams will also excell.

The offense will be much improved.

Go Bucks!!

[Drewline]

1 loss
Braxton Miller will look to have an "S" on his chest in a Meyer coached offense.

[Moose73]

1 loss, maybe. I think they'll be capable of running the table. Now that Fickell is back on D, that will be the strong suite. Miller with a year under his belt and new blood on the coaching staff will have them in championship game form by mid season, they just have to make there. Regardless, this team should be fun to watch.

[NC Rattlesnake]

Braxton's gotta learn to throw the ball if they wanna be good!!!

[Lancer '65]

I think that to go from where they were, with all the questions as yet unanswered to running the table may be a little bit unreasonable to expect right now, but I hope they can have that kind of a season. I look for a couple of tough losses along the way. best case scenario...10-2.

[assumption]

Just so they win the last one. No more than 2

[Hocus Pocus]

They will lose 3-4 in my opinion. Braxton "cannot" throw but neither could Tebow at FLA. Difference here is the caliber of players surrounding Braxton as compared to Tebow... Plus a new coach and new system for Braxton and the Bucks--- calling for OSU to go undefeated seems a real long shot. Prove me wrong Buckeyes!!

[BD6372]

Miller throws the ball better than Pryor, and the schedule is very favorable. Looking it over it's hard to see 4 losses (maybe 2, Wisconsin and Michigan State on the road) Nebraska and Michigan are both at home and the nonconference schedule is really weak. Going unbeaten is always tough but 4 losses- I hope not.

[Hocus Pocus]

^^We'll see...can't wait for the season to start!

[citybuck]

I'm going with 3 losses....

[Red_Skin_Pride]

I'll go with 2 as well. People aren't giving UCF very much credit. That game could be a trap game if the offense doesn't have it going smoothly yet, as it is very early in the year. UCF had a down year a little bit last year, but they have a ton of guys returning from a team that won 10 games and was ranked in the top 25 most of the previous year.

*And I don't think OSU will lose to the Knights, I just don't think it will be the 30-40 point win everyone thinks it will be.

[east_ohio]

2-3 , I'm just not that optimistic. O line is a serious problem as is the LB'S and secondary. OSU will score, unfortunately so will their opponents.

[CaughtinLimbo]

They'll lose 3 at most. Cut braxton a break he can throw the ball but who's going to catch it. Get 5 or 6 decent receivers and not this converted tight end crap. They could get to 12-0.

With Shazier, Sabino, Barnett and Roby back, I don't think the back 7 are as much a concern as people think. IMO from what I saw of Shazier last year, he showed flashes of being a monster. The back 7 are going to be basically all upperclassmen except for Shazier and Roby, and they may be 2 of the most talented players on that side of the ball.

However, I agree with you about he Oline

[lmavcch3]

I think the Oline was just poorly coached in the past. They should be much more of an aggressive, physical type of line. With the different wght training, etc., I think they will be the most improved unit on the team.

The only group I worry about is the WRs.

[roll_red_roll]

I'm gonna go with 2. Any more than that will be a disapointment. Miller is going to have to carry that offense with questions at OL and WR. Much like most years, the defense will have to carry the Bucks, imo. One thing is certain, the offense will not regress during the season.

[big_tiger_fan1]

meyer,like most coaches wins if he has talent.osu is average in this area but a weak non conference schedule will help to get 9 wins.

[shstiger73]

Either 1 (Wisconsin) or 2 (Wisconsin and one of the teams from that state up North)

[BHSSpartans08]

4: Michigan, Michigan State, Nebraska and Wisconsin

[bellaire_big_re]

With the talent that they have and with 8 home games, there is a real possibilty of the Buckeyes running the table this season. If they do, watch out over the next several years once Coach Meyer gets a few more recuting classes under his belt.
