The Ohio State football program has been sitting at home since losing at home in the Big Ten Championship. They learned that they were the second seed in the College Football Playoff, meaning they were going to get a bye. Last season, they did not get that luxury.
After everyone cried about how the bye might be bad for teams, this year's CFP has proven that getting a home playoff game might not be great. Instead, both road teams have won the first two matchups in the CFP. That includes the foe who will now face the Ohio State Buckeyes.
