The path is set for Ohio State in the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff.
Eight days after a humiliating rivalry loss to Michigan, the Buckeyes landed as the No. 8 seed in the CFP and will face No. 9 seed Tennessee at home on Dec. 21 at 8 p.m. Ryan Day met with Ohio State media following the selection show, addressing the matchup with the Volunteers and how his team is trying to respond off a fourth-straight loss in The Game.
Ohio State's offensive line is a major concern off a bad performance, especially as Day had high praise for Tennessee's defensive front.
