Ohio state just has way more talent in general.  Coaching only gets you so far in lopsided talent matchups. We've seen that in cfp this year especially in R1 where the favorites just roflstomped the other teams.

It can work until you run into a team like OSU and they don’t shoot themselves in the foot.

I did not, I just recall many years upon years of they making some of weakest schedules and get heavy media support. At end the 9-2 seasons were jokes once they played a real top 50 team. 

Honestly I was where you were before the playoffs.. but... To get here, they beat Georgia and PSU. Not to mention Indiana. And while PSU was close the other games weren't really so much.

I predicted Notre Dame to make it but I had Texas as the other representative.  Either way I thought they had a shot to make it to this game, but not win it.

The Irish just got hot at the right time.

They beat Georgia?? I would have lost the farm on that one, no BS. I know they have a huge following, but facts are they been frauds for like 30 years and no one cared to call them out without getting mobbed.

Leave politics to the TB y'all. Not cleaning it up again without sending folks on vacations.

Will Howard raised his draft stock a good bit in the CFP man. He might have been a late round flier before the this season in general. 

Ohio State is gonna have a ton of players drafted 

I think the NFL might be more prone to draft these older QBs with several years of starting in college because it's been working lately with Jayden Daniel's, Bo Nix, Penix. 

Will Howard sucks.  Bad.  This Ohio State team has been nearly perfect with play calling on both sides.  The coaches have dominated and the players have basically made every play there.

Kill shot incoming??

Oh wee mayne. This is gonna get ugly

Nick Saban on the Pat McAfee show brought up a good point earlier today. He essentially  said, college football needs a salary cap structure with NIL. It's too lopsided what some teams 

[Shocker]

Buckeyes way too good.  No way they can be stopped with this offense

[Hoenheim]

Ohio state is just in a different universe
