Ohio State finishes No. 6 in College Football Playoff Rankings

Do you agree with where Ohio State landed in the final release of the CFP Rankings? #GoBucks

Ohio State football finished the season just outside the top four of the College Football Playoff Rankings at No. 6. This year was a bit different though in the fact that there wasn’t a lot of drama as in years past when there was a chance for the Buckeyes to vault into the top four.

Ahead of Ohio State was largely what we believed it would be with Alabama reclaiming No. 1, followed by Michigan (2), Georgia (3), Cincinnati (4), and Notre Dame (5). That means the Wolverines and Bearcats get into the College Football Playoff for the first time and the Irish join the Buckeyes in just missing out.

This of course means Ohio State will wait for its postseason fate later in the day, but you can almost lock it in that the Buckeyes will be headed to Pasadena to play in the Rose Bowl opposite of the Pac-12 champ Utah.

With the ranking reveal, Ohio State continues the trend of never finishing worse than No. 7 in the final rankings reveal prior to the College Football Playoff matchups.
