Hired Alex Grinch, who had been co-DC at OSU the year prior.
Switched from 4-2-5 to 3-3-5.

It's a very strange occurrence. They essentially went from one of the absolute worst defenses of any top 10 ever to a better than average squad.
The Big 12 was probably much weaker from an offensive standpoint in '19 (Texas got rode for weeks, but proved considerably less; WVU went from scoring 49 per game to nothing) as well.
Over half of the top 25 teams come from two conferences right now and you got nearly 1/5 of the top 25 occupied by 1 or 2 loss mid majors. People like to kidney punch Clemson for the ACC, but geez, look at the Big 12. Baylor is ranked high for the same reason Utah was.
Grinch is a real up and comer. Did a great job relatively speaking at Washington State which led to the job at Ohio State
with two FR subs in there for starters. makes an impact. teams like tOSU have backup who can actually play. most teams don't.
They did have a freshman in on the punt throw covering. Backup QB is something like 4/11. Y
know our DBs would let him be 10/11. If you are going to compare, get it right!
