Skull Session: Three Buckeyes That Need to Step Up, A New Wrinkle to an Old Play, and Danny Clark in for Friday Night Lights

Friday, Friday… gotta get down on Friday!!!!!

This week's NSFW ANTI-WORK #BANGERS:

THREE BUCKEYES THAT MUST STEP UP. Ohio State is going to need production from some Buckeyes who earned promotions this offseason if it’s to reach its 2016 goals. This much is known.

Deciding which Buckeyes are key to a postseason run is a different task entirely.

According to the stats wizards at Pro Football Focus, the three key Buckeyes (besides J.T. Barrett) are Raekwon McMillan, Sam Hubbard, and Gareon Conley.

From pff.com:

[Raekwon McMillan's] 2015 overall grade ranks him eighth in the country among returning FBS ILBs, and he is near the top of nearly every tackling metric we have — most notable run-stop percentage (he ranks second) and tackling efficiency (10th).
