Ohio State averaged the most points and yards per game in the Big Ten, so nearly the entire starting offense earned all-conference selections.

Quarterback Justin Fields, center Josh Myers, right guard Wyatt Davis, left tackle Thayer Munford, wide receiver Chris Olave and wide receiver Garrett Wilson represented the Buckeyes as first-team All-Big Ten picks by the coaches on Tuesday. Fields, Davis and Munford were first-team picks by the media, too, while Myers, Olave and Wilson were on the second-team.

Running back Master Teague was chosen as a second-team honoree by the coaches and the media, while right tackle Nicholas Petit-Frere was a second-team recipient by the coaches but left off of the media's team. Left guard Harry Miller was a third-team pick by the media.

Running back Trey Sermon and tight ends Jeremy Ruckert and Luke Farrell received honorable mention All-Big Ten recognition.

Offensively, the Buckeyes were a juggernaut in the regular season, even though they played just five games. Nationally, they ranked fourth in points per game (46.6), sixth in yards per game (532.4), fifth in third-down conversion rate (53.62) and eighth in first downs per game (26). Led by the players who earned honors on Tuesday, they were first in the Big Ten in all four of those categories.

The All-Big Ten defensive team selections and awards will be revealed on Wednesday.
