Trevone Boykin (2) is Lindy’s preseason offensive player of the year. Jason Getz-USA TODAY Sports
When you take a look at the Lindy’s Sports’ 2015 All-America teams it’s easy to see why we like Ohio State to repeat as national champs.
Seven Buckeye players were selected to our first and second-team offense and defense, and Joey Bosa was chosen as our Defensive Player of the Year. Heck, if we knew which quarterback was going to start at quarterback for Urban Meyer’s squad, it may have been a clean sweep for player of the year honors on both sides of the ball. But hey, we love Trevone Boykin’s game, and we think he will make us look just fine.
With that said, Meyer’s squad has all the goods to hoist the College Football Playoff Trophy once again. But each season is different and it will be interesting to see how well Ohio State plays with all the lofty expectations surrounding it. With that said, here’s Lindy’s 2015 All-America team.
