Coming off back-to-back years of abysmal pass defense, Ohio State looks to right the ship with more playmaking in the secondary this fall.
The 2014 Buckeyes were a turnover-forcing machine, recording 25 interceptions, good for 4th-most nationally. Vonn Bell paced the team with six picks, Doran Grant tallied five and Tyvis Powell added four within the nation's 29th-best pass defense
In 2016, Ohio State earned a CFP bid largely on the strength of its defense. The Buckeyes ranked No. 7 in pass defense, yielding just 172.2 yards per game, and notched 21 interceptions, good for 4th-best in the land. During a 30-23 overtime victory versus Wisconsin, a Conley pick set up a touchdown giving Ohio State a 20-16 lead late in the third quarter. In a 24-20 decision over Northwestern, an Apple interception led to a field goal giving the Buckeyes a 10-0 lead.
