Ohio State Scheme Insider: How Matt Patricia Is Using More Stunts On The Defensive Line

It's a little too early to draw any real conclusions about how the 2026 Ohio State defense will differ from Matt Patricia's first version as the Buckeyes' defensive coordinator in 2025, but BuckeyeInsiders.com Scheme Insider Michael Pettit did notice an interesting change that Patricia made to the defensive front.

In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, he joins host Tom Orr to break down four stunts that the Buckeyes used in their season-opening win over Ball State, including some where a small change can make a big difference in the impact on the field.
