Overall Philosophy: Offenses Answers in Protection

The Ohio State offensive philosophy focuses on getting the ball into the hands of playmakers, maintaining equal or greater numbers than the defense in the run game, and creating mismatches for the pass game. In the run game, they aim to re-equate numbers on every play through misdirection and keeping defenses unsure of which gaps they will attack. Their pass game philosophy emphasizes high-percentage, efficient plays through spreading defenses out and moving personnel. Protections always cover the quarterback's backside and do not allow pressure up the middle or from deep defenders.
