Here’s how you can watch Saturday afternoon’s Bowling Green vs Ohio State game online.

Usually when a team losing the type of personnel that Ohio State dropped in the 2016 NFL Draft, they’re expected to take a major step back. However, that won’t be the case with the Buckeyes as they continue to reload instead of rebuilt.

J.T. Barrett is back as the starter after leading the Buckeyes to an 11-1 season just two years ago and handing off the reigns to Cardale Jones after an injury. He watched Cardale win the Big Ten title and then beat Alabama and Oregon on the way to a national title. Barrett’s job was no longer secure.

The then-sophomore quarterback had to fight for his position in 2015, eventually winning it but falling short of that illustrious back-to-back belt. Mike Weber will be filling in for Ezekiel Elliott and Noah Brown will be Mike Thomas’ replacement.

Bowling Green was an offensive juggernaut last season with guys like Roger Lewis and Gehrig Dieter to throw to for quarterback Matt Johnson. However, all three are gone this season as Lewis and Johnson exhausted their eligibility and Dieter decided to transfer to Alabama. Even the running backs will be brand new.

Still, first-year head coach Mike Jinks has a strong offensive line to rely on and junior quarterback James Knapke could end up surprising people. While the Falcons might not win 10 games again this season, they may end up pushing for the MAC title.
