The Eleven Warriors Web Report Discusses The Final CFP Rankings and The Cotton Bowl Matchup Against USC

The Eleven Warriors Web Report comes to you weekly from the Spectrum Sports studios in downtown Columbus, featuring our own Beau Bishop, Dan Hope and former Buckeye wide receiver Evan Spencer.

Ohio State's exclusion from the College Football Playoff was the main topic of discussion, as the panel opened the show debating whether or not the selection committee got it right.

With Alabama getting the No. 4 seed over the Buckeyes, Hope said it was clear Ohio State's 31-point loss to Iowa in early November was likely the cause of OSU missing the cut.

"We had to know all along that losing by 31 points to Iowa was supposed to be a fatal blow to their playoff chances," Hope said.
