Five things we learned in Ohio State’s win over Michigan State

Ohio State looked awfully impressive on the road against Michigan State Saturday. Here are five things we learned from the game.

How can anyone in their right mind keep Ohio State out of the College Football Playoff

Look, I know there’s a little debate out there about Ohio State not playing enough games to be sent to the college football land of milk and honey. But throw that out with last week’s expired milk because it’s all a little sour from teams knocking at the door trying to get in, and the Buckeyes are in the way.

You saw the talent on display Saturday and so did everyone else that bothered to tune in. We also now understand that Indiana (without its starting quarterback) might be as good as advertised with a win over Wisconsin. So that win over a “top-ten” team might actually be just that.

Regardless of whether Ohio State can play against Michigan or not this coming weekend, and all the drama over the status of its eligibility for the Big Ten Championship Game up in the air, the Buckeyes are one of the four best teams.

Do the right thing College Football Playoff Committee. Restore our faith in humanity.
