Urban Meyer Still Thinks Ohio State Has “The Best Talent in the Country,” Expects Buckeyes’ Defense to Improve

Ohio State’s loss to Oregon hasn’t changed Urban Meyer’s opinion on how talented the 2024 Ohio State football team is.

Meyer praised Ohio State’s talent throughout the offseason, saying in August that the Buckeyes’ roster “might be the best roster in college football in the last decade.” Two months and one Ohio State loss later, the former Ohio State coach still believes the talent of Ryan Day’s squad is the best in the sport.

Given that, Meyer doesn’t think Buckeye fans should be panicking about the team’s 32-31 defeat at Oregon two weeks ago.
