The Ohio State Buckeyes will be playing either the Miami Hurricanes or the TAMU Aggies at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas, during the second round of the College Football Playoff on December 31. Heading into that game, OSU will have Ryan Day more involved with play-calling than usual because of the recruiting dead period this month.
Bucknuts' Patrick Murphy pointed out that this happened last year with Chip Kelly before the Buckeyes blasted the Tennessee Volunteers 42-17 at the "Shoe" in the CFP's first round, and then got revenge against the Oregon Ducks in a 41-21 Rose Bowl rout.
