Ohio State football: 2019 Buckeyes season by the numbers

The Ohio State Buckeyes have piled up a lot of numbers for Scarlet and Gray fans to be proud of over the years and decades: Six national championships, 37 Big Ten titles won or shared, more than 900 victories.

The Buckeyes piled up some more impressive numbers in 2018 on their way to a 13-1 season and another B1G championship, a lot of them thanks to quarterback Dwayne Haskins. OSU set school records for passing yards (5,100) and passing TDs (51), both Big Ten records, among many others.

But there are a few numbers OSU would like to forget from last year, such as the single-season school records set for most average points (25.5) and yards (403.4) allowed per game.

So what will the numbers look like for Ohio State football in 2019?

It will be fun to find out. But in the meantime here are a few preseason numbers to chew on.
