INDIANAPOLIS -- Ohio State got its ring on Saturday. Now, will it get the call on Sunday?
The Buckeyes(11-2) won their second conference championship under head coach Urban Meyer, who refused to talk about what might lie on the other side of a Big Ten title this past week. With that behind them, it will be an uneasy 12 hours as Columbus (and Tuscaloosa) look on to see if a 27-21 beating of previously unbeaten No. 4 Wisconsin is enough to trade places with the Badgers in the College Football Playoff rankings.
Wisconsin's defense had been a veritable brick wall this year, carrying the Badgers to a 12-0 record by allowing a paltry and nation-leading 236.
