Ohio State football well-represented in ESPN’s top 150 college players of all-time

Ohio State had six players appearing in the first 125 players unveiled in ESPN’s Top 150 College Football Players of all-time.

The Ohio State football program is well-represented in ESPN’s top 150 college football players of all-time. The worldwide leader in sports programming crafted the series as a nod towards the 150th year anniversary of college football.

It started with naming 125 players and will be unveiling the top 25 this coming Monday at halftime of the national championship game. That means more OSU players could be named — ahem, cough, cough — Archie Griffin.

So what Buckeyes made the cut in the top 125? Eddie George leads all OSU players at No. 38. Behind him is Jack Tatum (No. 44), Howard “Hopalong” Cassady (No. 47), Orlando Pace (No. 51), Jim Parker (No. 141), and Chris Spielman (No. 143).

So how many more Ohio State players might be in the top 25? Tune in at halftime of the big one in New Orleans to find out.
