Following his team's come-from-behind 35-16 win at Rutgers on Saturday, Ohio State coach Ryan Day said he's not concerned about being ranked No. 1 right now or on Tuesday when the College Football Playoff selection committee releases its second of six rankings.
The top spot today, he said, "means absolutely nothing."
"Our goal is to be the No. 1 team at the end of the year," Day said. "All it means [now] is it's a good start and we know we're going to take everybody's best shot."
Unranked Rutgers certainly did Saturday, jumping out to a 9-7 halftime lead, raising questions about whether the Buckeyes will hang on to the committee's top spot for the second straight week.
