The defending MAC Champs travel to Columbus to face the #5 ranked Buckeyes
Two programs that have had tremendous success in recent years will meet in the season opener in Ohio Stadium in Columbus on Saturday. Both the Ohio State Buckeyes and Bowling Green Falcons had heavy losses due to graduation and defections to the NFL after last season.
Ohio State had 12 players selected in the 2016 NFL Draft this past spring, including six in the first round. The Buckeyes return only 6 starters, 3 on each side of the ball.
