When the Baylor Bears and Notre Dame Fighting Irish both lost this past weekend, it was good news for the Ohio State Buckeyes. Since the Bucks were able to win convincingly against the Michigan Wolverines, they were primed to move up towards the top four.
Ohio State comes in at sixth in the latest rankings for the College Football Playoff. A loss against Michigan State is keeping the Buckeyes from being in the top four, but there is still hope for Ohio State to get into the final four should they get some help this upcoming weekend.
