This season, the Buckeyes entered with high expectations as the defending national champions and were ranked third in the preseason AP Top 25 Poll. However, their recent loss to the top-ranked Indiana Hoosiers in the Big Ten Championship has left some fans feeling disappointed, as it has been since 2020 that the program last claimed the conference title.
The new playoff format grants the top four seeds a bye in the first round, which benefits Ohio State despite their loss in the championship game. As they prepare for the quarterfinals, the Buckeyes are looking to capitalize on this opportunity to advance in the playoff.
The College Football Playoff schedule includes several key matchups leading up to the semifinals and the national championship. On December 19, No. 9 Alabama will face No. 8 Oklahoma, followed by more first-round games on December 20. The semifinals are set for January 8 and 9, with the national championship occurring on January 19.
As Ohio State gears up for their next challenge, fans are eager to see if the Buckeyes can reclaim their status among college football”s elite.
