Things to Watch

Record Attendance
As expected, the attendance at the Ohio State game against Virginia Tech was a school record with 107,517 fans. Ohio State has the highest attendance so far this season in the nation.

Assistance Coach-Now Head Coach

Ohio State will face another head coach who previously was an assistant coach at Ohio State. KSU coach Paul Haynes is one of seven current head coaches with previous experience at Ohio State. The list also includes Tim Beckman-Illinois (OSU 2005-2006), Bill Conley-Ohio Dominican (OSU 1984-1987, 1992-2003), Mark Dantonio-Michigan State (OSU 2001-2003), Darrell Hazell-Purdue (OSU 2004-2010), Nick Saban-Alabama (OSU 1980-1981), and Everett Withers-James Madison (2012-2013). This season Ohio State will play against at least four of those head coaches.
