Ohio State's defense is going to have its hands full with Alabama's explosive offense led by the Crimson Tide's three-headed Heisman monster.
The Tide's defense isn't exactly going into Monday night's national championship game headed for a walk in the park, either.
Led by future top-five NFL draft pick Justin Fields, perhaps the best receiver duo in America in Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson and an offensive line that has been opening huge holes for the red-hot Trey Sermon, the Buckeyes' offense will pose its own serious threat in Miami.
One day after speaking with an Alabama offense led by players who said the Buckeyes' defense would be "the best we've played this year," the defense took to the podium on Thursday and gave Ryan Day's crew some more glowing reviews.
