Ohio State aims for best passing season since 2018 in 2026

Ohio State's football team has set ambitious goals for the 2026 season as preseason camp begins. The Buckeyes are targeting more than 5,000 passing yards, something they haven't achieved since 2018. Quarterback Julian Sayin returns with a year of experience and aims to improve on last season's performance, where he threw for 3,755 yards and 33 touchdowns. The offense, though impacted by the absence of key players like Carnell Tate, retains promising wide receivers including Jeremiah Smith and incoming recruits. Improvement is expected as the offensive line gains stability from returning veterans.
