To say that Ohio State's non-conference is among the
toughest in the nation is more of an understatement than saying that the
previous Big Ten Tournaments have lacked in attendance.
The Buckeye roster includes 27 players, with 10 freshmen,
seven sophomores, seven juniors and three seniors.
Even with a ton of veterans coming back, it would still be
tough to prepare for their 2015-16 schedule.
Throw in the amount of freshmen that need to get ready, and
the situation gets even tougher for OSU head coach Steve Rohlik, who, by the
way, has a new assistant coach in former Wisconsin standout defenseman Mark
Strobel.
Let's take a look at what the Scarlet and Gray are up
against this season as I highlight five of their marquee match-ups.
