The offensive line will just keep Justin Fields clean, as usual

This offensive line for Ohio State is really, really good. They have made some outstanding players in the first two games seem pedestrian. The scary thing is that this line is still getting better and gelling together after the offseason. To throw it back to the first key with Fields, it all starts up front. The offensive line should have no problems keeping him upright to see passing lanes and bomb away.
There is not much Rutgers will be able to do to get to Fields consistently, and while I’m sure Greg Schiano will to bring some bodies in the backfield, this line is just better. Look for some more push too in the running game, but really if we’re being honest, it’s all about Fields.
