Right Guard, Wyatt Davis
The press release on Davis
Davis, from Bellflower, Calif., has started 21 consecutive games at right guard for the Buckeyes and this year has been a leader for a unit that helped Ohio State finish with the Big Ten’s top rushing offense. The Buckeyes rank No. 5 nationally on the ground, averaging 275.6 yards per game and just nine days ago paved the way for RB Trey Sermon to set Ohio State’s single-game rushing record with 331 yards in a win over Northwestern.
The Rimington-Pace Offensive Lineman of the Year in the Big Ten, Davis is just the fifth guard – and first from Ohio State – to win the award in the last 35 years. His play has also helped the Ohio State line earn recognition as a semifinalist for the Joe Moore Award, which goes to the top offensive line unit in the country.
