OSU is the highest ranked team in 12 of the 30 categories (10 in conf.-only rankings)

scUM is the highest ranked in only 2 categories. (
Fewest Penalties and

OSU is in 2nd place by an eyelash. (conference-games-only)
- In Scoring Offense, we are 2nd to PSU by one point. Not one point per game, one lousy steaking point for the whole Big10 season.
- [censored] Michigan
- In Kick Off Returns, we are 2nd by 2 lousy yards.

- In Net Punting, we are 2nd by one tenth of a yard per punt.

- In Time of Possession, we are 2nd by one second per game.

Other things to note:
- In conference-only rankings, we are 7th in pass offense. We are number one in yards per attempt (10.4 yards)
