Only one Buckeye earned first-time All-Big Ten honors while wearing No. 67, and that was offensive tackle Alan Kline.
A four-year starter at Ohio State, Kline helped guide the Buckeyes to a 33-12-3 overall record and the 1993 Big Ten Championship.
During his time in Columbus, Kline blocked for Buckeye running backs Robert Smith, Carlos Snow and Raymont Harris as well as quarterbacks Greg Frey, Kent Graham, Kirk Herbstreit and Bobby Hoying.
Kline was a first-team All-Big Ten selection following the 1991 season, and was named a team captain his senior season in 1993.
Though he went undrafted following his senior season, Kline did have a short NFL career in New Orleans, playing two seasons with the Saints and appearing in three games.
