With Four of Ohio State's Top Six Pass-Catchers Off to the NFL, Ohio State Looks to Backfill Passing Game Production

With the way Ohio State's football factory is humming right now, the annual need to replace big-time production moving on to the next level is a way of life.

Ryan Day's 2020 passing attack will be no different as no less than 53% of 2019's receptions and 50% of the receiving yards moved out of Columbus with the departures of K.J. Hill, Ben Victor, Austin Mack, and running back J.K. Dobbins.

Losing half of last year's production might seem like a significant amount – it certainly shouldn't be discounted – but the reality is the lost production is only the fourth-most since Urban Meyer's arrival back in 2012.
