Head coach Urban Meyer and the No. 6 Ohio State Buckeyes are replacing 16 starters from last year's team, but they're aiming to reload for another potential run at the College Football Playoff.
Their 2016 campaign starts this Saturday, when they host Bowling Green in Ohio Stadium for a noon showdown.
The Falcons should provide a solid test for the young Buckeyes. They're no stranger to the big stage, as they've won the MAC twice in the last three seasons.
Here's everything you need to know about Ohio State's season opener.
