I wouldn't count out Damon Webb opposite Apple. I think it will be between him and Conley. Reeves hasn't been good enough to start yet, he probably isn't going to be.Scarlet_Buckeye;1693468 wrote:Next year's team will be ridiculous.
QB - Miller/Barrett/Jones
RB - Elliott/Samuel
WR - Thomas
WR - Marshall
HB - Wilson
TE - Vannett
LT - Decker
LG - Price
C - Boren
RG - Elflein
RT - ??? (maybe Chase Farris?)
DE - Bosa
DE - ??? (probably Lewis or Holmes)
DT - Washington
DT - Schutt
LB - Lee
LB - Perry
LB - McMillan
CB - Apple
CB - ??? (Conley or Reeves)
S - Bell
S - Powell
Bold = returning starter
You will be hard pressed to find a team that returns more Starters, or a team with fewer question marks.
I've been saying it all year... next year​ is the year to watch-out for. This year has just been icing on the cake.

Can we please go back to all the JT vs Braxton discussion. I want to gloat.
JK.
The future is so bright it's insane. I like Webb to beat out Latimore next year and I honestly think Erik Smith will beat out Tyvis Powell. Going to be an insanely good team.

I think Smith will see the field a lot next year, but would be shocked if it's in place of Powell. Probably more in the Nickel situations.ohiobucks1;1693633 wrote:Can we please go back to all the JT vs Braxton discussion. I want to gloat.

The expectations next year will be the biggest they've been in a long long long time.

OSU will go into the season next year with 2 legitimate Heisman candidates, whomever the QB is and Zeke.

Throughout history, who has been the closest tandem in Heisman voting? I was actually thinking about this the other day, how awesome it would be if, say, JT and Zeke were 1 & 2, and the winner (by votes) brought the other up and said he demanded it be split.se-alum;1693680 wrote:OSU will go into the season next year with 2 legitimate Heisman candidates, whomever the QB is and Zeke.

I'm guessing Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart since Leinart had won it the previous year. Don't know how high up Leinart finished though.ernest_t_bass;1693682 wrote:Throughout history, who has been the closest tandem in Heisman voting?

In 2005 Bush was first with 2541 points and Leinart was 3rd with 797 points. A difference of 1744 points. I think they were definitely the highest 2 finishers.Terry_Tate;1693752 wrote:I'm guessing Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart since Leinart had won it the previous year.

In 1994 Kijana Carter finished 2nd with 901 points and teammate Kerry Collins finished 4th with 639 points. A difference of 262 points so they were closer.
In 2003 Leinart finished 6th with 127 points and Mike Williams finished 8th with 18 points,a difference of 109 points. They weren't really up for winning, but that is the closest I found. (I didn't go through all the years because while they are definitely closer they weren't close to winning so it didn't seem relevant)

So there you go, 10 points between teammates.
I think the crux of ETB's question though was closest between a Heisman winner and a teammate.

My buddy can get face value tickets in section 438 through his work and I'm thinking I may just pull the trigger on them. Looks like it's about at the goal line so I'm thinking I'll just do it.

I agree. It's a little difficult to compare because of the different number of voterslhslep134;1693885 wrote:I think the crux of ETB's question though was closest between a Heisman winner and a teammate.
