A new year typically means a new opportunity for the Ohio State football team to make a run for another Big Ten title and spot in the College Football Playoff, especially over the last decade or so.
Even though the Buckeyes lost some key contributors to the NFL and graduation from last season, that doesn’t look to be any different in 2021. OSU still has plenty of talent to be the next man up because it recruits among the elite and develops its players better than almost any program out there.
