Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr rank the opposing quarterbacks on the Buckeyes’ schedule, from the least proven options to a top three featuring Texas' Arch Manning and others.

Tony and Tom also examine whether Josh Hoover can maintain Indiana’s recent standard at quarterback, debate whether Arch Manning belongs ahead of Maiava, and explain why Moore may enter the season as the most dangerous passer Ohio State is scheduled to face.
