COLUMBUS — For some Ohio State commits, they’re already at the halfway point of their 2023 seasons. That’s a little hard to grapple with when the Buckeyes are already a fourth of the way through the schedule.

Ohio State has a big test this weekend as it travels to South Bend, Indiana, for a clash in primetime against Notre Dame. The Buckeyes haven’t been to Notre Dame since 1996 and they won 29-16.

Plenty of future Buckeyes have big tests this weekend as well and Lettermen Row gets right into the weekend slate for all 22 of the 2024 commits and commits beyond.
