^^ I completely agree with you. OSU deserves someone on this team.

Pretty good list. I don't think I agree with the DL from PSU being on there, but that's about the only one. I don't think OSU has anybody worthy of being on that list.

OSU has a ton of talent, everyone knows this. But I think the talent on the defensive side takes some stats away from players. Everyone will have their big games but overall there is not one guy who has standout stats.

I am not sure why there are only two spots for WR's on this list. 80 percent of schools have 3 WR's in their base formations but there are only two WR spots on this list? doesn't make much sense to me. There are some guys who had outstadning years who should have been considered for a spot on this team. Consider Danario Alexander, Freddie Barnes, Dezmon Briscoe or Jordan Shipley to name a few.

Most teams that have 3 WR sets only have one RB, would it make sense to only have 1 RB on the team??

They only put two linebackers on the team in Rolando McClain and Greg Jones going for a 1970's vintage 5-2 instead of the usual 4-3 that you see with all american teams. My point is that there are enough guys that have the stats to have another receiver on there. Danario Alexander is throwing up Crabtree like stats and didn't get a sniff. That seems a bit odd to me.
